By now, everybody has seen the video of the woman racing to the hospital who is stopped and slammed against her car after she stops and is removed by 29 year old Florida Sheriff’s Deputy Kevin Stabins. So now, let’s play name that tune!

A person who willingly breaks the law should be willing to accept the concequences of their actions provided they are not exccessive. I personally do not feel that an officer who is alone and has a person try to flee is being excessive when even as he is trying to pull her out of the car and she “accidentally” lets her foot off the break. COME ON!!! I wish all charges against her were reinstated.
(PS- how long before we see her lawyer and she tries to get compensated for “pain and suffering”.)
Good for her attorney! She damn well should be compensated! If that damn cop couldnt realize this woman was under severe emotional distress and not thinking he should be fired for stupidity, not excessive force. This is most assuredly not the kind of police officer, (most by the way who do an excellent if very difficult job) that I want protecting me.
I knew a man, now deceased, who in 2001 had pulled over to the side of the road realizing his blood sugar was out of whack. He was a severe diabetic. He called his wife on a cell phone and while he was trying to explain to her where he was a cop pulled up and, believing he was drunk pulled him out of the car and was manhandling him while his wife was on the phone. She heard him simply pleading with the cop to talk to her to no avail. He was taken to jail by this cop….
This officer should have been fired or spent time in jail. Those sympathizing with this arrogant jerk obviously haven’t had dealings with the police, or are cops themselves. As an honest, law abiding citizen I learned the hard way that the only difference between a cop and a crook is the badge.
During a divorce my ex-wife hooked up with a convicted attempted murderer that happened to have friends in the local precinct. For four years I was stalked, my apartment broken into, and my life was threatened verbally on a daily basis from this guy. My life was a living hell and the local cops kept looking the other way, they even helped this jerk out by intimidating my witnesses not to file statements. When I hired a detective to follow me and videotape this guy stalking me, his cop friends even threatened to arrest my detective if he didn’t quit my case (and to add insult to injury they were going to arrest him for stalking my stalker, even though he was following me). In addition, they refused to act on my order of protection and stay away every time my ex-wife chose to violate it. I didn’t believe him when he first threatened me and told me he had friends in the 7th precinct and that he could kill me and get away with it. He even told me that he killed before and his cop buddies covered up for him. I didn’t believe it until I did a background check and found he spent only two days in jail for attempted murder (the poor guy he stabbed spent nearly a month in the hospital).Boy, was I wrong, cops have way too much power and the blue buddy system conveniently looks the other way when they want to break, or bend, the law for their friends or themselves. But watch out if your on the receiving end of this corruption and arrogance (as this poor woman found out).
If this woman had been the daughter of a cop, a friend of this arrogant jerk, or a cop herself, then this never would have happened.
I could only hope that someone that the policeman loves is dying someday and someone keeps him away. Maybe his wife or his child as it is obvious that he cares nothing for his parents. How would he feel is he was shot and someone kept his family away? Maybe a little common sense on his side would have helped. He could have called have called the hospital to see if her story was true. He had her license with all the information. When my son got the call for his kidney transplant after waiting for two years I did 90 in a 55 zone to get him there. I would do it again tomorrow. If it had been the officers family would he have driven the speed limit or turned on the lights and hit the gas? Next time he should try THINKING, not just using his power.
I don’t know if I was the only one saw it but there was a little too much “rear” body contac.was I seeing things?
what was all that “rear body” contac about?
Emergency personel, police and ParaMedics know first hand that family members usually add to the calamity of an emergency medical situation. Aside from the comfort that a family member gives the patient, there is not much that they can do to help the situation. Some family member racing to the hospital with emergency flashers on, weaving in and out in traffic only increases the chances of more injury. Police have been lied to more times than they can recall. On the other hand, the deputy in this case could have followed the lady to the hospital since they were already on hospital grounds. He chose not to do so and put himself in a bad situation. It is unfortunately bad judgement on the part of the lady for putting herself in this situation and likewise on the overly zealous deputy for his actions. Just my opinion.
The deputy had many other options. He could have ~
• Investigated her claim, by making one inquiry with the hospital thru his dispatch.
• Shed some grace.
• Used common sense.
• Used spirit of the law, rather than the letter of the law.
