re: #8 mroop

Because she could have driven away instead of ending up in a cell! Of course the cop could have given her a warning and let her go and she was causing no harm by being angry. The problem is that when you cop an attitude with a cop you will never win. Take the ticket and get away from the cop as soon as possible. I will quote Chris Rock, “‘Just got pulled over by the cops wish me luck.” I’m a traffic lawyer, consider my advice to be legal advice that you can count on. Minimize your interactions with the police as much as possible. Take the ticket, say thank you, drive away. If you had a problem, call an attorney or your local Legal Services. I represent people like Sandra Bland, not cops.

Do you refer to all of your clients as “stupid morons”?
That is a really sick thing to say about a woman who is now dead.

The officer at the scene was way out of line. And while your point about just taking the ticket and STFU may be good advice…that doesn’t excuse over the top aggression by police, nor does it make it right.

He needs to be held accountable for his part in the horrible outcome of his actions.
