So much for "no intention" of using your position to receive a benefit.
She should have been arrested, cuffed and booked into jail and charged with fleeing, obstruction, disobeying a lawful order, etc. in addition to the traffic citation.
BWC footage in article, infuriating to watch.
In 2015, Doorley switched her party affiliation to the GOP, and was reelected later that year in an election.
Total misuse of office. Being a DA doesn’t mean you can speed.
Any one else would have been severely beaten and rightly so.
About 25 minutes or so into the video,
the officer says not stopping for the lights and siren
is an arrest-able offense but he just wants to write
her a ticket and get it over with.
Do you think he would do that for me or you?
They should do a breathalyzer on her and test for drugs. Why would she get so worked up over a speeding ticket? Her arrogance and entitlement is something else.
New York State
The body cam video shows the coordinates of her house.
The cops were very good in the video. I’m impressed that they didn’t really care who she was. The supervisor even chewed her out.
Which State did it happen?
She does not need a badge and a gun.
Get her out of there.
She issued the statement after being made aware that the footage was being mad epublic. What an entitled wench.
More reasons why humans should not be given power over other humans without EXTREME and DEFINATE limitations...
When I read the excerpt, I was thinking Massachusetts, but it could be anywhere in Blue America. Or Red America. At least it was a county, not a province. so I could think it was in the USA, not Canada. At least the station call letters made in east of the Mississippi River.
Thanks to the later posters who did ID this as NYS.
Every Government employee who abuses their position of authority such as this should be immediately terminated with immediate loss of retirement/pension/medical benefits and...AND... be mandated to receive a forehead tattoo “G”, to let every citizen know and put every other government agency on notice “VIOLATED THE PUBLIC TRUST.DO NOT HIRE.NOT TO BE TRUSTED WITH ANY POSITION OF AUTHORITY”
She’s the flipping DA!
She’d hang any of us working slobs fur doing what she JUST DID.
Yep...this is cruel, but abuse or powder MUST cease, OR these petty tyrants will be the death of our society.
I’m not gonna apologise for the comment.
...she’d probably SWAT my home, if she knew who I am.
That’s the problem with these tin horn tyrants who think they’re above the laws they’re paid to enforce.
Travis County (Austin, Texas aka Berkley on the Colorado) booking of Democrat DA on you tube. It is most amusing especially the restraints put on her.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7y7oJ266qI
Next link is video of her arrest. It is most amusing.

Want some good news to start off 2017? Rosemary Lehmberg is no longer Travis County’s DA as of this Tuesday, Jan. 3.
I remember driving in Nashville TN and seeing a police officer park his marked patrol car at a metered parking space at the curb. The uniformed officer got out of the police car and put change in the parking meter before he went into the eating establishment. I was so impressed, I drove around the block and parked. I walked into the place and personally thanked the cop for his conduct in doing what the rest of us are required to do but that he could have easily ignored.
The people charged with enforcing the law MUST also obey the law if we are to respect the law.
Imagine if she was a 22 year old black guy headed home from work. He wouldn’t have walked away with a ticket.
She needs to lose her job. Arrogant prick. Nothing is more stupid than a DA who thinks they can order cops around like a supervisor.
You have to wonder about the mental stability of a person in that position who would get into a squabble with a cop over a minor traffic offense in which the cop probably had the discretion to let her off with a warning had she simply stopped when signaled and let him carry on with the duty chargeable to both of them, namely, enforcing the law. Especially when the entire exchange is being taped and can easily end up costing your job and exposing you to public shame and ridicule.
