      We will never see it. If there was any footage it has been "lost". I wasn't there, I don't know what happened. I do know he didn't have enough fame to be instantly recognized and he didn't say "I'm the #1 player in the world". If he had been recognized he wouldn't have been put in cuffs and we would have never heard of this incident. If there is miraculously any footage I would love to see it. Everyone needs a dashcam nowadays as cops lie. A lot. Just watch some videos on YT and there thousands where the guy with the camera is saved from several felonies by a camera. Because the officer lied.

How are they out of control because they bust criminals and get rough with people fighting with them who more than likely committed a crime.. Generally speaking police don’t get rough with you unless they have a very good reason… and this is coming from someone who has been arrested.. it was my own fault for being stupid and in fact breaking a law .. I never once blamed the police for my actions..You ever see the show “Cops” a dude who just broke into a liquor store saying he didn’t do anything or my personal favorite he has drugs on him and he doesn’t know how it got there,, they ain’t his pants… Yeah the police are out there harassing people and arresting them for no reason… please..

      I lived 1/2 mile up the hill going towards Shelbyville. Louisville PD once again makes headlines for all the wrong reasons. My condolences to the family who lost their loved one. That is not a stretch of road people should be walking. There is a 4ft ditch directly off the side of the road and then a steep embankment. There is no where for a pedestrian to get out of àthe way of an oncoming car. I walked that stretch of road every day for 3 months. Most dangerous road Ive ever walked.

Then still driving with a cop on the vehicle is just inexcusable. Ppl wanna say “why was the cop on the Car” maybe they should look up video of other situations where cops do the same thing, I’ve seen traffic stops where they’re holding onto the window as the suspect tries to drive off, they’re not trying to let them get away. Scottie dragged the cop 20 yards, that’s definitely assault, imagine if the cop was ran over and killed, you think ppl would still be defending him over it? Probably because they just hate cops because the narrative the media portrays them as and the passes they give pro athletes and celebrities just because they’re famous

    • @stevennicholas8185
      @stevennicholas8185 21 день тому +1

      Not necessarily. Depends on the department. Some departments detectives are merely senior police officers, subordinate to sergeants (excluding detective sergeants) that conduct investigations. Some agencies detectives have some "authority" over others, within the parameters of a specific investigation. Detectives are often hired to work off-duty details, such as this golf tournament, with duties unrelated to their position in the department (e.g. traffic enforcement, executive protection). It is possible this detective was "on-duty" working the traffic fatality scene. I cannot imagine any circumstance that Scheffler would've made it from the site of the arrest, through the booking procedure and into a cell without a significantly high ranking member of the PD being apprised of the situation.
