*UPDATED! Dodge Charger flees from Trooper, but is spotted moments later. Same Charger?

[@PolicePursuits]

UPDATE 08/14/2023: The report has been released. This is the report (the only redaction is the name of the driver): I observed a matte gray Dodge Charger traveling at a high rate of speed westbound on U.S. Highway 412. I activated my front antenna of my radar and the speed quickly climbed from 92 to 98 miles per hour (MPH). I entered the median to turn around on the vehicle and as I was turning around in the westbound lanes the vehicle accelerated and I called pursuit. The vehicle continued at speeds over 100 MPH and I attempted to keep the vehicle in my sights. When approaching the light at Sonora Rd. I lost sight of the vehicle and continued westbound in case the vehicle took a side road. Sonora Rd. and Hewitt Springs Rd. both are paved county roads that lead back to Butterfield Coach Rd. in Springdale. As I approached Butterfield Coach I never saw the vehicle ahead of me again on U.S. Highway 412. As I approached the light there was a gray charger that looked exactly like the vehicle that fled turning left on U.S. Highway 412 from Butterfield Coach where Hewitt Springs would have came out. Having enough reasonable suspicion to believe this was my suspect vehicle I initiated a traffic stop. Upon making the stop I made contact with the driver and there was a strong odor of marijuana omitting from the vehicle. I placed the driver into custody for the marijuana and continued the investigation for the pursuit. The driver stated she was not fleeing from me and claimed to be coming from Bentonville. There was an ounce of marijuana in the vehicle and it was seized as evidence and she was transported to Washington County. A bystander who witnessed the pursuit and called into headquarters. Once I left booking at Washington County jail, I called the caller back who advised me that my suspect vehicle had turned south on Habberton Rd. but then they had observed me stop another Charger that was identical to the one that was running at the Walmart, and they felt compelled to call and inform me that I had stopped a different vehicle than the one that ran. Driver was not charged with Fleeing and booked in only under the misdemeanor narcotic charge.

Thank you! & to answer your question, it looked black as it was going by, and it looked black when he later pulls it over. 🤷‍♀

At most all the charges would get dropped except for the possession. A good example of the fruit of the poisonous tree in where it doesn't apply regardless is if the officer pulled someone over and illegally searched their vehicle and found a dead body. No matter how illegal the search was that person will still get charged with murder and no it won't get tossed out either.

He knew he was wrong. So this whole case should be thrown out. Then he tells the other officer she has a shitty attitude. She didn’t but she would have w every right to have an attitude for being accused of running from him. Then he’s coming up with all these “well she could have done this or that”. And she doesn’t have a “shitty attitude just like the rest of them”. He’s trying to convince himself he’s right. 29:46 “she can’t say where she’s coming from”. SHES BEEN TELLING YOU WHERE SHE CAME FROM. He’s just making up shit now. And it is the officers responsibility & then the prosecutors job to show her guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. The burden of proof is on the officer. He can’t do that & any jury would see that. 32:03 looking at the data in the car is an illegal search. Anything learned from what they did looking at anything internal would require a search warrant. You can’t look at things like that during this kind of search.

19:25 "It's your job right now to prove that". That cop needs fired. It is not her job to prove she is innocent, it is your job to prove she is guilty. I hope she gets a lawyer and sues.

[@Yeah_Whocares]

It is crazy how many cars didn't even attempt to move out of the officer's way. With full lights and sirens blaring, people were cruising in the left lane. The person at 7:35 didn't even notice the cop until they were in their blind spot.

[@VsHangout]

It's called our running your siren. That is when an emergency vehicle is going fast enough that by the time a driver hears the siren, realizes what it is, than starts to act the emergency vehicle is already up on them.

How you figure, homie? He explained exactly why he pulled her over... It don't take a rocket scientist to follow the logic but I understand you white knights and simps are plentiful these days. 🤦‍♂️

[@blrenx]

Are you that stupid? he has the dealer plate on the car. has the car on video. What more do you want? DNA? By the way driving is a privilege not a right. He busted her in possession of the car.. add the weed, Try to tell that to the judge then let me know how that works out for ya..

[@Elizabeth.Nadine]

I remember YEARS ago I was speeding and swooped into a gas station real quick and I saw the LEO pull over a car that was a few cars behind me & it was also VERY similar to my car. Watching this video reminds me of that incident. A case of mistaken identity.

[@GuamanianHarmonLoop]

Guilty until proven innocent. Both the front and rear windows on her car are partially rolled down. The person who ran had the windows rolled up. The side mirrors on her car are black. The mirrors on the car that the officer is looking for match the paint. They are not black. The reflection from the sun off the fender emblem is obvious.The sun doesn't reflect that way off the darkside of the body panels. Also, as mentioned by others in the last viewable frame before the Challenger gaps the officer into the next county you can see an emblem on the driver side of the grill. There is enough reasonable doubt which would then throwout the marijuana charge. It also doesn't make any sense for someone who is running from police to turn around and head back the way they just cane from.

[@KING_DJ21]

Different car. Check the mirrors and you are 100% correct.

[@minnesnowda2510]

He won’t be able to identify the driver in court. Just because of a dash cam video isn’t enough. This is an open and shut case in my books. Wait till the attorney asks if he can prove who was driving.

I say the whole stop is Unlawful. Absolutely unlawful search and seizure. It Should all be thrown out with one motion by her attorney. I have to admit. I am 50 and I've been through it alll.. it's kinda nice how police do not bother me like they used to. They don't pull me over unless it's important

[@ryansharp4691]

She has a good answer for everything because, in this case, as long as she can remember what she's been doing for the last 10 minutes a better answer she could not give.

[@lynnquinn7244]

I believe the dealership usually records your mileage whenever you have something done. Shouldn't be that hard to figure out if it adds up either with her story or the trooper's theory that she went back home to Huntsville after being at the dealership, then proceeding to where he first saw the Charger. Then it wouldn't really matter that she can't remember the exact time, or changed her mind about what time she was at the dealership.

[@jerrygundrum1]

she should have a receipt from the service in the car

[@denmikseb]

Not always. I have taken my truck in a couple times for something minor that they fixed for free, no receipt, no record.

[@mcsgary]

I have a GMC Sierra. Went to dealer the other day because of check engine light. It was a hose they left off of air filter when they changed oil and filters a week before. I asked for a receipt (they record mileage, date and time). She told me no ticket was generated. I told her to generate a ticket and put it in her computer or I was going to dealership owner. She gave me a ticket. My point is if she had demanded a ticket, she could prove her innocence.

[@usnaron1]

I actually had the same thing happen to me, except my transmission was blown. The car was sitting in my backyard for months, covered with dust/dirt and 15 cop cars were outside my house. Sometimes, these guys have no common sense. That car that ran from him smoked him. There's no way on earth a GT would leave him like that. The car that ran also has HEMI badges on the sides.🤦🏾‍♂️

She's innocent until proven guilty in this country has the Trooper forgotten this. I'm a former officer and just because a suspect has what you think is a bad attitude they have 1st amendment rights. Charges will either be filed or dropped once they pull the data off her OBDII. It will tell the story.

[@matthewferrick3288]

@bostonbruinsfanboy Yes it requires a warrant but if she's innocent she'll be happy to let them have a look at her cars computer. No different if you get pulled over because you were swerving and arrested for DUI but were just tired. You fail a field sobriety test but pass a breathalyzer and concent to a blood draw that you have no illegal or prescribed drugs in your system. It's their job to prove guilt but if your innocent and you know it you can prove it yourself and save yourself some time out of jail and attorneys fees.

[@JeanPierreWhite]

While the law presumes innocence many cases end up being your word against the officers word. In most cases you lose regardless of innocence or guilt. It's an unfortunate state of affairs that you have to be able to prove your innocence these days.

It is not the same car. The car speeding on the highway has a badge (Hellcat or 392) on the front fender in front of the driver's door. You can see it reflecting the sun light (starting about the 10 second mark) as it drives past the officer. As he is pulling the second charger over, there is no badge on the second car (front fender is clean, easily visible at 8:36).
