I don't think gut wrenching means what you think it means...
When I first heard about her driving 104 and going to jail I thought "yeah that's what happens". When I watched the video and saw her pleading with the officer it was definitely gut wrenching to me. I felt a lot of sympathy for her.
Was it gut wrenching to see her flicking off the cop at the 0:49 mark?
Far from gut wrenching. The absolute absence of accountability is just astounding. To pass a cop on the right flashing lights and tailgating while driving over 100 just boggles the mind.
Exactly. She is an idiot. Fortunately, her 15 minutes are just about up.
I am not sure why the police would release a video to the public or media of something like this. She is already going to jail, has a bond, will have it on her record and is clearly scared sh*tless. Do they need to embarass her too?
She made a bad choice again. She has made a lot of bad choices. She needs mentorship.
The draconian laws in Florida make it illegal to carry small amounts of cannabis (Coleman's arrest). Man, get with the times, in Canada, for example, people just smoke it everywhere out in the open, no pressure from cops, it is not illegal, no one is a criminal (for it).
Lots of relaxed people.
But, saying that, Coleman has made some bad choices too. His missing his whereabouts a few years ago was lame. He and Sha'Carri are a couple of people who really need to get their sh*t together. If it is a known thing, why in the hell would he show up to an arrest of a friend with pot? Ha ha. OMG. You can't write this stuff.
On the contrary, dodging the tester when you are glowing is smart, not lame. Tough luck that an AIU guy came at the end instead of his favorite USADA tester, without giving him the normal courtesy calls...
Definitely a confrontational opener. However, he could have easily seen that she was smiling in that time and I bet that he did see it and that she was. To me it looked like she was smiling. About the sub-standard equipment he was referencing the low air pressure in one of her rear tires that she brought up as some sort of an explanation of her speed. Not a dig at the car... Just saying that it's dangerous to go FASTER if you're worried about low tire pressure.
Cop was a bit power trippy. Should have Mirandized her right after he said the she was going to jail.
SCR needs to get away from Coleman and dare a non-athlete. She clearly has serious mental health issues and needs someone in her corner who will really look out for her.

can't fault the cop. she sat there and tried to lie and come up and with lame excuses for 4 minutes straight. never really owned to what she did. Cop would probably have appreciated honesty, humility and accountability more than anything.
for wejo and anybody else who finds that gut wrenching, good luck not getting walked over by your daughter. most girls are a lot better at using their female wiles for manipulation than what I just saw from SCR

It was certainly a reckless thing to do but did not require jail. Classic example of over reach and not building trust and a sense of community. A hefty fine and a warning would have prevented future speeding. A real discussion about the dangers, a 500 dollar fine and at least a nod to some form of community policing and engagement. He had discretion to not take her to jail and simply chose the power trip route. This is the pattern over and over again in the U.S. And then arrest the boyfriend who shows up? Just to show that you can? It has always been an incarceration rather than a truth finding or justice system. I am sure this will get down voted by all the law and order folks but an arrest, a $550 dollar bond and a court day does nothing but waste resources, fill the dockets and feed the egos of the guys in the Dodge Chargers.
Its not gut wrenching and she needs to grow up. She did 104 mph, she could have killed multiple people. Each successive generation gets softer. Youngsters these days. Eyeroll.
Too many kids who watched Smokey and the Bandit in the 70s who were encouraged to speed and outrun the law! Oh my pearls!!
I 100 per cent agree. This was a power trip. Most places in the world you don't go to jail for speeding. Also, fewer and fewer places consider small quantities of cannabis to be illegal. I think this is what she was driving. Perhaps, she picked a heat score of a car:
DBX707 drives like no other luxury SUV, exhibiting raw power, stunning performance, and sumptuous comfort. Find out more about this iconic SUV sports car here.
👍 Another self-obsessed show pony brought down to earth.
And for those giving the cop a hard time by saying see was only...the video didn't show what he saw in his rear vision mirror coming on to him from way back.
Not at Dick at all. Police officers see a lot of tragedies due to speeding. Very often the person driving recklessly ends up killing innocent people around them. I hope she learns a good lesson, but I doubt it she is so immature, stupid and pathetic.
Absolute garbage. Accidents caused by speeders are almost always drunk or drug impaired drivers. Accidents involving sober speeders is barely a blip in accident statistics. But it's just so easy to bring in revenue from speeders because it's easily adjudicated. I'm not saying she doesn't deserve punishment. But a mandatory jail visit is way over the top.
Here in Colorado, we have 2 accidents a week caused by drivers going the wrong direction down major highways. The driver is always high or drunk. And the accidents they cause are almost always fatal. But yeah, let's jail someone for going 104 in a 65.
What the hell are you talking about? Speeding and intoxication have equal accident rates. At least 30% attributed for each. This isn't debatable.
