I'm a former police officer who worked in a smaller city. The reply to why she didn't stop was justifiable. She stated fear was the cause of her actions and I saw no harm in it. This officer should have not pulled a gun on her, put handcuffs on her not told her to shut up. I have stopped many people at night and listened why they didn't stop. I'm very disappointed in his coworkers for not calling him out on the carpet. The woman admitted she was speeding and he was justifiable in writing the citation. I would have been lenient due to the young children. That money for that ticket took food and other expenses which could have benefitted them.

The deputy not only carried out a felony stop without justification, he even screwed that up. He didn't light up the car properly and fumbled with his radio with one hand while holding the gun at an angle with his other hand. Thus, if she really were dangerous, his first couple of shots would have missed until he got both hands back on the gun - assuming he could see adequately. Then we get to his unprofessional language, his escalating the situation even as she remained calm. He needs to find another profession. Will the State pull his peace officer certificate?
