So what you are saying is.. if she were a fat white hillbilly wearing a wifebeater, the officer would have believed that that person were a doctor and escorted her to the hospital? Give me a break.

This is clearly a case of what you don't do when a cop pulls you over. You don't just drive off before the officer says you can go. That is common sense.
 
i see it as i made a claim, and then immediately made an exception to that claim and then you came in and tried to show where i had already pointed out that i was wrong.

like i said, nice try. maybe next time though buddy

and nice fellowship out a mod too
 
Important things can/do happen before the delivery on a very regular basis.
 
AND, my favorite part of the story.....watch the video

http://www.newschannel5.com/global/story.asp?s=12478062

at the end they say the doctor spent an HOUR in jail, but still MADE IT ON TIME to deliver the baby.



in other words, this uppity douche wanted to speed and throw her "authority" at the cop when there was absolutely no need to be in any hurry at all.

I hope she still gets charged for the felony.
 
I dont know why you're still suppoting this, she was released before booking so obviously she was not in the wrong in the eyes of the higher ups.
 
had to be because she is a black woman, i mean whitey cop was obviously being racist when he was following the fucking laws.

fryman seriously is a fucking moron, i dont understand how someone can be so fucking dumb on a day to day basis.
 
I want to know the full story.

From the article it sounds like she was stopped, said something to the officer, then she just left and he arrested her when she finally stopped.

I don't see anything wrong with what is being presented so far.

Also, cops can be dicks because people tend to act stupid to them and disrespect them. If you at respectful and follow orders, you will get that in return.
 
Officer In Controversial Arrest Faces Civil Rights Lawsuit

By Ben Hall
Investigative Reporter

PULASKI, Tenn. - The city of Pulaski has called in an outside law firm to investigate the arrest of a black doctor by a Pulaski police officer.

Police clocked Dr. Terry Wynn's car going 46 in a 30-mile-per-hour zone last Wednesday night. Wynn is an OB/GYN who was on the way to the hospital to deliver a baby.

She pulled over, and told Pulaski officer Chad Estes she needed to get to the hospital.

Police said she then left the scene and drove less than a mile to the hospital. Officer Estes followed Wynn and arrested her in the hospital parking lot.

"When she took off or sped away, and left him there, that constitutes under Tennessee law, evading arrest in a motor vehicle, which is a felony," said Pulaski Police Chief John Dickey.

The arrest has sparked outrage in Pulaski and even led to a debate online about who was right.

"They didn't look at her as a doctor. They looked at her as a woman of color, and they didn't believe that she was a doctor," said resident Georgia Paige-Peterson. "If they will do that to her I can't imagine what they have done to others."

Immediately after the doctor's arrest, a relative of the woman in labor called the Pulaski police chief and urged him to get the doctor out of jail so she could deliver the baby. Chief Dickey called the jail and had her released before she was officially booked.

"The issue that most concerned me is there was a patient that needed care," said Dickey.

The chief says it's too early to say whether or not his officer did anything wrong. He is waiting for the outside investigation to be finished, but he was adamant that race was not a factor.

"Nothing has surfaced with any of these officers or anybody in this department that we have anything like that going on here," said Dickey.

NewsChannel 5 Investigates discovered this is isn't the first time Officer Estes has been involved in a racially charged arrest. Terra Hollis sued him for violating the civil rights of her 17 year old son.

"To me, it says he's out of control," said Hollis.

Video obtained by NewsChannel 5 Investigates from 2008, shows Trey Hollis leaving a crowded McDonalds as police arrived to break up a fight. Trey was not involved in the fight, but officer Estes grab him and push him against a table.

"They slam him on the table," said Hollis. "They throw him out the door. They slam him on the police car."

Hollis is a basketball player on track to graduate this year. Police also arrested Hollis' grandmother and aunt.

"I was told to shut up and go to my car or I would be arrested," said Hollis.

All charges against the family were dropped. The lawsuit claims the arrests were racially motivated, which Chief Dickey denies.

"People have their opinion and their perception of things and I respect people's feelings, but that doesn't mean I agree with them," said Dickey.

He said the TBI investigated, and a grand jury did not indict officer Estes or anyone else.

Terra Hollis believes if Estes had been disciplined after her son's arrest, the latest incident may not have happened.

"I'm very sad it happened because in my mind I think the incident could have been prevented," said Hollis.

Dr. Wynn could still be charged with evading arrest and, at this time, she is not commenting. Everyone is waiting for the outside investigation to be finished.

The baby's family released a statement saying the baby is healthy. The family said the police officers involved in the arrest of Wynn used bad judgment, and they hope the city takes appropriate steps to keep it from happening again.

Go on a couple ride alongs that revolve around traffic stops and see what you hear.




And what if mountains could jump? Now you're not even talking about facts but you're just making a what if statement to fit the view you have already determined to be correct (in your own opinion) - even with the admittance of not knowing everything that was said.
 
Or I don't know, one of the doctors in the EMERGENCY ROOM. Or any other fucking person in the hospital with more than 5 minutes of medical training to deliver the baby.
 
right, because cops don't hear every excuse possible from people trying to get out of tickets

why didn't see show her doctor credentials, rather than just drive away?


there's definitely racism around, but you might need to check closer to home.
 
She was speeding. Which she admits.
She was lawfully detained by police. Which she admits.
She just left without being released from the scene. Which she admits.

Where's the gray area?
 
So L4zy says it should have been verified and you say its not the cops job.

So basically you should just go home now.
 
Here, let me quote you since you don't seem to remember what you said.










You didn't say "under no circumstance is it ok for normal citizens to speed recklessly. I'm not debating that this woman isn't a jackass and deserved to be arrested. I'm calling you out for a moronic statement that you've been backpedaling from ever since you made it.

Just admit it, there are PLENTY of situations where it's ok for normal citizens to break the law.
 
you called me out on something that i had already fucking said retard. good fucking detective skills, heres a badge you deserve it gumshoe
 
had she not broken the law by speeding it would have never even been an issue in the first place, but fuck that cop for treating her unfairly
 
46 in a 30 is pretty fast And I've heard every fucking excuse in the book. How do I know she isn't just on her way to work and wants to get out of a ticket? Tough circumstances honestly. Honestly though, child birth isn't a life threatening event (typically), so her speeding excessively is endangering others unnecessarily. If she was some sort of special DR that had to be there or else the patient was gone, yeah I'd probably let her go with a warning after a quick phone call.

Hard to say without actually being there. Acting rationally and explaining your position to me will go a very long way towards letting you off and on your way. Acting like an asshole will do the opposite.
