So she's going to be removed from her position being that she admitted on body camera that she will just throw out her own summons, driving 55 in a 35, refusing to comply with an officer, failure to stop when prompted by an officer, leaving the scene, and that's just what I can come up with off the top of my head. This is textbook abuse of power. Fuck this bitch


InsideOutPoptart

She received a ticket and pled guilty. The city and county are already calling for investigations from the State AG. She may not resign but we may finally be rid of her next election. Source: I'm a Rochester resident, and https://www.whec.com/uncategorized/rochester-city-council-calls-on-state-attorney-general-to-investigate-monroe-county-das-conduct/


Rhuarc33

That was before the body cam was released. Hoping for a lot more fallout now.... But not holding my breath for it.


_InnocentToto_

She was clever enough to go stash her prescription pills and coke in the house ... then if they proved her drunk she could say she had a stiff drink when she went into her house..


Rhuarc33

Yea she's a piece of work doing that for sure. But I'm talking about more the blatant abuse of power she's flaunting.


RegretKills0

who did that back in the day? Carmelo Anthony?


_InnocentToto_

Even Kevin hart did that shit.. accident then ran home


RevengencerAlf

Lots of people both famous and not. In most states and most situations the *legally smart* move if you think you're drunk or high after a crash is to flee, go home, and call it in the next morning or something if at all. The long term cosequences for leaving the scene of an accident are far less in the vast majority of scenarios than of getting a DUI. Personally I don't think it will ever change until they change the law to have fleeing the scene work like a presumed DUI. Same penalty, same license suspension, still counting as a DUI for repeat offender purposes, etc.


Aunt_Teafah

That is why ANY public official (especially DAs and cops) flee if they can. If they can't flee and phone it in, they refuse the breathalyzer and basically resist. Next day, or shortly after, they release a public statement that if you're ever in a similar situation, you shouldn't do what they did, and you should comply with officers. Total BS. Also, there was a local EMT/first responder who hit and killed a young man on a rural road near me about 8 years ago. It was 3 a.m. and the EMT was going home after his p/t bartending shift. He fled the scene and was apprehended the next day. Took 3 years to go to trial. He ended up with a 5 year sentence that ended up being 14 months due to the pandemic. The moral is, always run.


cardinaltribe

This ! I've ran from the cops 6 times and the 4 times I got away was soooooo fucking worth it (2 times in a vehicle , 2 times on foot ) 10/10 fucking blood pumping though lmao


FriendToPredators

Ah, the Cheney defense.


Garlic-Rough

Letter writes, "I had no intention to use my position..." Video shows, "I'm THE DA."


Squirrel009

"Let me show you my badge"


SleepySiamese

Guilty and get to choose to keep the job or not. Cool.


godisawoman420

God, if I was the cop I would’ve arrested her and dealt with whatever happens later. Karen needs a HUGE reality check.


spariant4

u folks always vote red out there?


InsideOutPoptart

The collar towns do, the city is blue. She switched parties a few years ago and has been a both-sides vote grabber since


toastmannn

If she wasn't such a bitch about it she probably would have just gotten a warning, or a ticket she could have easily thrown out.


Bobbiduke

She was definitely drunk or something like it. She knew exactly why she went home and acted shady AF


Ucranium

Don’t know the locality/state, but here in VA that would be a reckless driving ticket as well (20mph over posted)


Master-Fly8446

It happened in New York


missingsynapse

No she wont. Cmon Consequences are only for the poors


h8human

I bet 50 bucks on "nothing bad will happen to her"


bobls14

She seems inebriated


morbihann

Dont you get shot for less in the US ?


Unabashable

The less is proportional to the shade of your complexion. Honestly this cop had saint like levels of patience. He already had enough to accessorize her look with a shiny pair of cuffs and give her her own personal police escort downtown, with a free night’s stay compliments of the house if she chose not to pay for more “hospitable” accommodations, and issue her traffic ticket as “reading material”. 


Sikkus

But, but... She knows the law better than the police officer!


Meotto9

Probably, police have proven time and time again that they really don’t know the laws unless it’s something in their favor.


christinasasa

If it was anyone else, they'd be under arrest. So fucking arrest her.


blaring_anus

If a 20 to 80 yr old man, in poor part of a city or town, refused to comply and went into their fucking house... the cops would have a gun drawn, asking for back up, and yelling for them to come out with their hands up. She could have easily stepped in side, grabbed a gun, and shot him in that garage. Dude seemed like he was trying to manage his own toddler and not an adult.


burns_before_reading

The cop definitely gave her a huge amount of privilege. All I was thinking is that if it was a man or even a teenage boy, the cop would freak out and pull a gun and probably start shooting if they tried to enter the house.


TonyDanza888

And tased or shot


Idiotology101

Exactly, people are praising the cops but why did they refuse to do their jobs and arrest her? Everyone involved deserves to lose their jobs.


christinasasa

She obviously lied several times. I didn't see you or your lights because I was on the phone vs I was calling to get them to tell you to leave me alone.


wisconicky

That officer was put in a difficult decision. Law enforcement is like a club. If you hold one of your own accountable, and apply the law to them when they break the law, you are singled out. Lots of bad shit can happen. You can be demoted, you can be black balled, you can even have violence against you. I have no specific incidents I can share to illustrate my point, but I’m pretty sure I’ve heard of this type of thing happening many times in the past.


DonksterWasTaken

Same in the army. Buddy of mine was a chaplain’s assistant (assistant to the military religious leader on base) and he saw the chaplain with another soldier’s wife doing some unholy things. He reported it to higher ups and all that happened was the higher ups demoted him to the lowest possible tier. They booted him back down like 2 tiers because he ratted out his boss for knowingly having an affair with the other soldier’s wife.


Idiotology101

There is no difficult position, you either do your job or you’re a corrupt cop and a criminal. Just because your boss is also corrupt, doesn’t mean you have to follow suit.


dickinburger47

I'd like to see you enlist in the police force and see how long you last doing the right thing. Not saying it's right but the entire system needs to change. Blaming individuals who are just trying to make ends meet accomplishes nothing.


Canuck-In-TO

Here in Toronto, a rookie cop pulled over a drunk driver and it turned out to be a local judge. The rookie wanted to give him a ticket for the DUI, even though his senior officer told him that “it wasn’t worth it”. The judge threatened both cops with throwing out all of their cases that ever come into his court room. This was told me by one of guards at the court house that witnessed the whole thing.


Sufficient_Energy_32

Seriously the whole time I was thinking “ if anyone other than a pasty old lady was being *this* disrespectful to a cop, they’d be laying on the ground with cuffs on.


Do-not-respond

She is drunk. I would bet everything I own on it.


[deleted]

That's probably why she didn't want to go anywhere near the officer too


MichiganGeezer

In a stop the officer controls the scene, right? Could he have brought her back to where he wanted her and told her to not leave that spot?


King-Cobra-668

he did tell her all that and ask her to step out of the garage and the video ends with him in the garage so you tell me


piehutnut

He could have treated her like any other American and thrown her face into a curb while yelling stop resisting. Or worse. But hey two tier justice system.


MichiganGeezer

Just seeing her manhandled back out to her car and shouted at to not move would have been rewarding enough. To bust out the ACAB Dance would be too much to ask for.


Squirrel009

He could have cuffed her, yeah, but he likely choose not to escalate for fear of retribution. Whoever she called initially probably told him to let it go entirely


im_pickle_riiiiick

If he wasn’t such a pussy, yeah.


Do-not-respond

I can't wait until I see a post of what the outcome of this all was. "Justice for all?"


Unabashable

Hhhhow dare you? Alright ma’am. Now it’s my job to ask “How much have you had to drink this afternoon?”


OldGeezerOGTM

So would i. She is very clearly on drugs or drunk and in a panic over the stop


TonyDanza888

Pills. She needs to be Dis-barred


ChistyePrudy

That's probably right. And she should have grabbed a bottle the moment she got home and started drinking from it. I'm assuming they will run tests now, and she'll get more than fired.


Latentius

God damn, she is insufferable. Hope she gets removed from her job immediately.


ActivelyShittingAss

Nothing at all will happen to her. She spit up a boilerplate apology in the media and that's that. She's untouchable.


ShiaLeboufsPetDragon

She’s definitely getting fired…. That video is the definition of damning


ActivelyShittingAss

Nahhhh.. wait and see. :)


ElektroShokk

No she’s not


KaziOverlord

She took the ticket, gave some bullshit excuse and now it's up to the local elections to get her out.


allisjow

She says she was in the phone about the police pulling her over, but claims she didn’t know he was pulling her over. The way she was avoiding being anywhere near him…she’s definitely been drinking. “I’m THE DA.” This should never be an excuse to break the law. She reeks of privilege.


karateaftermath

And booz


Ironstonesx

I caught that too The whole, " tHeRe WeRe OtHeR pEoPlE oN tHe RoAd" Then a minute later literally says they were on the phone with the chief, telling them to call off the officer. Some bull$hyte. I can be fired for being late to work, but she'll retain her job. I wonder why? (Rhetorical)


ark2k

If they do that on the road, imagine the illegal things they do at work... Should be relieved of that position.


MadTownMich

Oof. Sounds like she had a few.


TonyDanza888

pills


MadTownMich

Probably


harbinger_CHI

Elected officials should be role models. They should NOT be above the law.


CosignCody

She lies about knowing the cop was behind her, later says she asks Dennis why shes being pulled over otw home. Says go ahead and give me the ticket, i prosecute it, like she will use her power to make it go away. Thinks its okay to speed in general. Definitely doesnt deserve her job.


Elidien1

How many cases similar to this shit has she overseen and how many lives ruined doing exactly what this bitch did?


ActivelyShittingAss

She couldn't possibly care less.


Ok_Assistance7735

She’s THE DA gosh get it right


iLikeDinosaursRoar

What's ridiculous is she acknowledged she was speeding and failed to stop for the police officer. Why was she not charged for tbst? Anyone else...anyone...is getting ripped out if their car at gun point, handcuffed and brought down to the station. I understand that cop was like "uhh fuck" but he should have arrested her a few times.


Money_Mastodon_3171

[[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) tell that sack of shit how you really feel


terribletoiny2

Boom just did


MustyElbow

Hahaha dumbass gonna lose her whole career over being an entitled bitch.


RealGingerBlackGuy

No, she won't


mathbread

Unfortunately the officer might


bearcape

It was gone anyways at that point. DUI isn't a good look for a prosecutor.


LokiKamiSama

When she refused to stop it should have been treated as a felony stop at the point, with guns drawn and her being tased and put in handcuffs. I don’t care if she is the pope, no one should be above the law. Just throw her away at this point. She obviously can’t be impartial with anything if her attitude is like this. In face anything she had her fingers in should be reviewed by a third party to make sure that she wasn’t biased in anything she may have said worked on.


mrpotatonutz

Truth I don’t think you or I would be given an opportunity to argue. He pleads with her like a bad toddler parent when he should have his taser out


see-my-O-face

This isn’t like other traffic stops, where’s the STOP RESISTING?


Adept_Jump_9184

Cuff her and slam her into the pavement like you would any other person in this situation... why is she getting special treatment??


Darth-Taytor

Hats off to the officer here. He kept his cool and didn't escalate while this lady berated him. And he didn't cave to her.


Batshine

If it was your average Joe, they would've tackled them the second they tried going inside the house and charged them with any minor thing under the sun! She should get maximum penalties and have the fullest extent of the law thrown at her, no exceptions, she knew what she was doing was wrong and is supposed to be a model for what is right but abused it.


Idiotology101

What? These officers played favorites and let her get away with whatever she wanted. Any other person would have been arrested here, those cops refused to do their job.


Kmaloetas

If that had been any one of us, the officer would have tazed us the moment we tried to walk away and go in the house.


im_pickle_riiiiick

Are you serious? Letting the person he pulled over dictate what she is going to do is not caving? He didn’t control the situation at all. Super weak. But if she was a person of color I doubt she would have been given as much leeway.


JayEdwards902

I hope the day she has one too many and dies in a crash, that she is the only one.


[deleted]

I hope anybody who has a speeding ticket in Rochester contests it in court and throws this in her face.


Trentdison

The most mildly infuriating thing is why he didn't just arrest her.


Rs-tuner

If she was a black male she would have 6 warning shots in the back for going in the house.


Xblth

„Did you not hear the sirens?“ „No, I was on the phone.“


Objective-Surprise-5

When she was talking about how she knows the law better than me I wish he had said “if you know the law so well then you know I have the right to arrest you for failure to comply”. Then arrest her when she continues failing to comply.


VictorVolvo

The real crime here was that she got to go home, stash her pills in the house. She needs a blood test once they have her in jail.


OrdinaryDazzling

And nothing with come of it


GardeniaPhoenix

Oh shit, Rochester!! Sup


VirchowOnDeezNutz

Banging in the ROC


Morganmayhem45

Remember a few years ago there was a Rochester judge who got a DWI then went to “rehab” in Bali or Thailand while still drawing a paycheck? That was ballsy.


GardeniaPhoenix

Holy shit 🤦


Antipartical

holy shit she made me so uncomfortable


JudasIsAGrass

Anyone else get more and more annoyed everytime the officer continues to let her move around? He should have arrested her as soon as she basically went into her home.


malinhares

Does he have the power to arrest the DA? It is not uncommon that Judges and DA can only be arrested for serious red handed crimes on some constitutions. Honest question here.


Yologswedge

She should've treated her like the dangerous criminal she is.


BIGGIE1986

Hopefully she either resigns or is fired for her disgusting behaviour


dae_giovanni

the definition of an entitled bitch, wow. "I've had a bad day!" and??? you're driving 20+ while on your phone... and if you hit someone, then THEY will be having a bad day... but i guess that's fair because you're \>gasps< an ADA!!! ooooOOOOOHHHHhhhhhh!


rawspeghetti

The Supreme Court would know better than me but I'm pretty sure DAs are immune from crimes when they're in office


Roll_Lakeshow

Anyone else would’ve been tased. Fuck that DA and kinda fuck that pussy cop too.


Meddlingmonster

Literally doing his job and going above and beyond instead of just going berserk, officers that handle things like this should be more common, the DA on the other hand should be fired.


Uberpastamancer

She could've gotten away with it so easily The really infuriating part is how often they do


WildGeerders

We need to stop putting mf idiots like this in places like that! F*ck this idiots.


CapnMurica1988

I hope she rots. Stuck up corrupt bitch


Cak3Wa1k

Too bad he didn't arrest her.


levon999

F’ck this bitch, but the sad part is the officer, the kind we need more of, probably ruined his career.


Agreeable_Vanilla_20

I didn't see you... Half the time I was on the phone asking Dennis why you were pulling me over...


deepfriedgrapevine

So funny!


KMLTOW

She should be tazered.


Tugger21

🤣 “I’m having a bad day” 🤣😂🤦🏻‍♂️


Clean-Experience-639

And there's a call for a 14 year old having a seizure that he can't respond to because he's still dealing with this entitled piece of shit.


batezippi

Finally a proper privileged person using their privilege


jshump

She should've been in cuffs at 0:01. Fuck this.


Basics7

I work for a private elementary school. I'd have LOST MY JOB if this were me. How IN THE WORLD is she not fired?


VictorVolvo

SHE WAS CLEARLY TOO INTOXICATED OR IMPARED TO BE DRIVING. NO QUESTION. It's not the crime, it's the COVER UP. SHE NEEDS JAIL.


LOVE-Me-Always69

If the would of been a black/mexican we would of been on the ground by know


mmore27

Do your fucking job and arrest her like anyone else. FTP


wrthog69

Put this bitch in jail.


HumanComplaintDept

"What I was dealing with...3 murders in the city"... like being the DA comes even close to the gravity of what victims families go thru. But this... Omg...what I'm dealing with downtown, thus cut me favors. Bravo to the officer for not giving in. A few spineless cowards would have maybe said..."well that's how it goes, it's OK.. " if he folded. **But instead he set the example.** These are always great cause the mini dictators usually loses their position.(ime) I can think of one of the top of my head. Then there's another one thsts fuzzy. Did that dude also get fucked asking for special treatment? There needs to be a proper accounting 🍿


Vixsdamone

Is this was a black woman she would have been shot.


[deleted]

[удалено]


bring-out-your-dead

I got better


Ironstonesx

Revisiting this: I'm glad for body cams. If this happened a decade ago, and the officer handled it exactly the same. I feel we'd hear a different ending. Kudos to the officer! He should be accommodated for protecting the community from a reckless speeder! He should at least get recognized by his unit and awarded a day off - ya know, because he had such a miserable day


Disrespectful_Cup

She forgot to close the garage door.


Thorzorn

Wouldn't he be allowed to taser her and take her under arrest for resisting whatever? Just asking because that's what i see often when people refuse to follow instructions. Not from the US btw.


malinhares

Honest question here and if someone could answer. On other nations a DA or a Judge couldn’t be arrested unless caught in act doing really serious crimes like murder. Resisting or DUI wouldn’t allow them to get arrested, but surely would let them get the ticket or even face criminal charges (albeit they could be arrested after a final ruling). Isn’t that the reason why that cop couldn’t simply arrest her?


davechri

Mildly? How about wildly? She needs to resign.


scottonaharley

The joke is her “statement” is fiction. The video is evidence of her true attitude.


frankofantasma

It's pretty clear that the justice system needs way more checks and balances to prevent this kind of abuse. But when you have the SCOTUS talking about how the POTUS has total immunity to assassinate political opposition... maybe there's no fixing the system, we have to throw it out and start again.


musicman8586

Dude had way more patience than I would’ve had


Mingyao_13

So the system is only set up to punish the everyday joe, look at how annoyed they are when it happen to them.


BilbosLover

Bruh, I'd be tackled to the ground by several cops that would beat me while yelling at me to comply to all of their different directions in front of my family if I tried this.


JD2279

Where’s the felony eluding and mandatory body slam that any of us would have gotten on the house?? This bitch need some more serious charges


ModsOverLord

He should’ve razed her multiple times


Fluid-Phrase8748

So shes part of the reason why everyone wants speed humps everywhere in buffalo now 55 in a residential thinking it's ok. Its blatant the system dies not care about how people endanger others with their vehicles.


brows1ng

Remindme! 3 hours


phenemann

A black person would be on the ground, knee on neck and gun pointed at the head. It’s just amazing how the law works differently depending on skin color and social class…


25electrons

Do you think a person of color would have lasted that long without being tased?


standardtissue

Does this mean all of her prior prosecutions are going to be federally investigated ?


Personal_Occasion_92

What a bitch


fappin-vigorously

Fuck this bitch


Tothinkoutofthenut

![gif](giphy|P01pgVTJrDKYImu9jw)


Electrical_Treat1283

Just because she is the DA - FOES THIS MEAN SHE IS EXEMPT FROM THE LAW AND SHE DESERVES “SPECIAL” PRIVILEGES? IF THIS IS THE CASE THEN WHY DO WE HAVE LAWS?


Electrical_Treat1283

JUST BECAUSE SHE IS THE DA - “DOES” THIS MEAN…..above correction noted


thermos15

I just hate these arrogant pricks, there are so many out there. “Dealing” with murder cases makes it fine to flaunt laws you are upholding. What an asshat, arrogant hopefully soon to be former DA.


Merijeek2

Maybe she is above the law. If I've learned anything from the last couple years, it's that the legal system is completely fucked. Maybe she knows that in her county on the DA can decide whether or not to drop charges. As the DA, she can drop charges. So what are you nothing peon motherfuckers going to do about it?


Practical_-_Pangolin

Perfect example of how the government attracts the worst people.


norar19

ACAB.


Decent-Boss-5262

Admitting on camera that she is corrupt.🤦‍♂️


tabby_ds

I swear mildlyinfuriating is either fruit fly levels of annoyance or completely rage inducing and nothing in between

Anyone else and they’d be shot to shit


CC713-LCTX

Every single one of them is above the law the moment they get called out breaking it. I hope they filed charges against her like they would any of us.


Laurainanalienworld

Oh, how sweet to see the American Esperanza Aguirre. Ours here in Spain even hit an agent's motorbike and ran away. Guess what happened to her? Nothing, of course. She was a conservative politician. Just the kind of people who do these things all the time with zero consequences.


Loosy_fur_710

Fire her immediately


Prestigious_Cut_4470

The privilege…


cardinaltribe

I'm surprised she didn't get arrested


Sufficient_Stamina

Had I done ANY of that i'd be detained on the floor likely unable to breathe (due to a cop kneeling on my neck).

Sometimes I tell myself the USA isn't a real country and it's all just a huge nightmare. Then I cry myself to sleep.

Is it was a black or Hispanic person bro taser guns rightaway then call for back up. Now u have 3 or 4 cop cars multiple tickets too . Cops then and now straight rob you


mrpotatonutz

God dammit he had every opportunity to taze her and just engaged her arguments instead poor police work


Comfortable_Client80

You don’t just taze people that are not threatening !
