In 1994 I had a friend raped and murdered by a man with a fake badge, a fake police light bar on his car and unfortunately, a real gun.

That is unfortunate. So your point, I guess, is that every American is free to drive away from a police stop because of the one in 10 million chance the cop is an impersonator? By the way, we are assuming that her version of events is the accurate version of events. But all of these stories always exclude information that is exculpatory towards the police officer. In the one video, I hear the woman shout “I know my rights.” That doesn’t sound like a concern that the officer is an impersonator.
I suspect that the prosecutor figured that the officer was too rough with her during the arrest and just decided to let the case go. I have no issue with the decision to drop the case. But I do take issue with these obstinate people who think they can just disregard the lawful orders of police officers.
