This woman claimed to be a professor. The cops asked for ID. She didn't comply, I saw her just ask what would happen if she didn't.

The cop attempted to peaceably cuff her, and she resists. He WARNS HER and she continues to resist.

I have been critical of some cops recently. In Broward county Florida, two LEOs were caught on camera (unaware to them) TRULY slammed a man to the ground who was doing NOTHING....

That being said, this does NOT appear to be a case of police brutality. I could be wrong.

Thoughts?

MY MISTAKE....WRONG HEADLINE.

HEADLINE SHOULD SAY:
ASU professor arrested; accuses officer of ‘excessive force’

Can you fix??? I took the headline from a source that wouldn’t post.

She’ll pull the race card too. Quit disrespecting me!

The woman was not complying with the requests and directives of the police officer. He stated his reason for detaining her and she decided she’d be an ass because he asked for her ID. In my opinion, the LEO was way more than patient with this woman.

She got what she asked for. Just guessing here, but I’m guessing she had a buzz on and was feeling confrontational.

It looked to me like she “body slammed” herself. The officer showed more self restraint than I have.

Why does she think the law shouldn’t apply to her?

I know what would happen if I responded that way to a police officer. He was more patient that I would have been.

She apparently has trouble understanding English and not much a teacher.

Hard to say what she was thinking when he asked for the ID. Typically, you pull out an ID and just what the problem is. Any other response....just gets you into hassle. Sounds like she was asking for trouble.

She was trying to avoid construction and jaywalked. The hottest crime in America right now.

My understanding of Arizona law is that you are only required to show ID if you are stopped while driving. I don’t know what provision is made for giving a citation to a jaywalker who doesn’t show ID, because they have to be identified in some way.

I think both sides could have tried harder to keep this from escalating. However it is always better to comply with police requests and complain later if you feel there is a reason to do so.

You have the right to refuse to give a LEO your ID if you don’t want to. This thug cop just got pissed because someone questioned his authority. Gotta show the plebes who’s boss.

If the LEO stops you and tells you why, i.e., because of an infraction, I don’t think your right prevails. I could be wrong. Regardless, if he stops you for an infraction and whether you produce ID or not, if you act an ass and resist arrest, you get what you’re asked for.

The LEO gave her a reason for asking for ID. Probably Cause of a crime/infraction being committed. She was acting like an ass. He was not.

This calls for a beer summit at the Whitehouse.

Without seeing the video, my guess is the woman was black. She will play her race card and get her way.

she was not dressed like a professor

She’s black and a Professor. Do we even need to guess she is a “progressive” who worships at the altar of Karl Marx? So maybe she enjoyed all this, got to feel what it’s like to live under Stalin.

more like a street walker, but then I live in New York state.
