This is what actual corruption looks like.
naw... just women in power
Allegedly lol.
Incels would say nothing if the criminal is a man. But as long as it's a woman, they gonna type sexist stuff all over the comment section
@@mattlol163we have seen what many woman have done lately. All the corrupt woman mayors that don’t even hide it is bizarre. Just KZhead them
@@mattlol163I can name a lot of videos with men doing this as well
She should resign or be fired
for a speeding ticket ? TF?
She should be arrested, any common citizen would have been
@@mystic1160Are you kidding me?
@@mystic1160 You think the issue is a speeding ticket?
Voted out😊
She actually said " I'm not A DA I'm THE DA" so take her and her inflated ego and kick her out of the job if she thinks she's above the laws that she expects us all to follow !Double standards !😠🤬
DA = dumb ***
Bet she practiced that at some point in her career...
Much like Fauci saying He IS THE Science
We can clearly see she is not just a narcissist, but THE NARCISSIST!
@@sirmadam8183 Well said!👏👏👏👏
She should step down from her position. She has no business in a position like that.
But she is a closet democrat, and insider for the demoKKKrat klan. Democrats need a whore like her. 😂
I bet her replacement will be worse than her.
She’s lucky that a more aggressive police officer didn’t follow her, she totally manipulated this officer, this is a disgrace. She needs to be removed.
Shes white so nothing will happen either way
She's an elected official, she'll have to be voted out.
Yes she does, especially if she was doing a 55 and a 35 because there might have been kids around and she could have hit them, or even killed one
@BillySBC what part of "No one is above the law!" doesn't sink in?
The ultimate Karen. Talk about White privilege. Sooo arrogant!!
She is the problem
Just wait until the corrupt system gets her charges dropped to nothing and she gets away with a fine.
She sure is. And she says “I don’t really care!” FFS woman. No excuse using your position & treating that police officer like that. Horrible woman!
It's called Complexion for Protection and Genetic immunity from law
How about you get in her position, it was just speeding no problem
@@hi-lx7wr You must not have seen the video. Fleeing and eluding is a felony in New York state.
She should be arrested and charged with a felony
It’s true. She was aware and it’s not hard to prove as everybody knows how loud and bright lights and sirens are. That’s why they’re like that! She should’ve pulled to the side to get out of emergency vehicles way if she thought it wasn’t for her. Don’t let her fool you!She committed a felony which she admitted to not stopping.
Admits that she was speeding but says “I understand the law better than you”. No, you just don’t care. Get rid of this corrupt filth.
😂😂 she understands it? but clearly thinks it dose not apply to her! What a witch!!!
1:02, She actually said she didn’t carev
She said i don't care, i am the one that will dismiss it! Corruption in it's highest form
She needs to be removed from office. Hard stop.
A woman should've never been in this position in the first place. Women aren't meant to lead.
Almost as bad as 'president' Biden.
For prosecuting herself and paying the fine? Knowing the consequence and accepting it is not illegal. Get well soon.
@@freezingcathedral ??? for abuse of power its VERY obvious she gives ZERO fucks about the law and thinks she is above it. She didnt even get charged with running from police..... GTFOH. Clearly you are room tempt when it comes to ur IQ.
@@freezingcathedral so A DA in our justice system who had a tough day, justifies the fact the she was breaking the law to a cop like : "I don't care if I was going 20 over" and clearly give 0 big ones for the law she apparently knows better"? If that's the kind of people you want running your justice system please stay in New York! If it were anyone else they probably would have been arrested.
Little people with big jobs…all over America
Well said little people with big jobs
Describes most cops.
We'd all have been better off if she'd spent more time packin' lunch boxes, than making a public spectacle of herself... shame.
Biden is the big guy😂😂😂
This is absolutely Shocking. The arrogance of a Democrat politician. Amazing how Democrats are bent on Destroying the United States😮
Why didn't the cop elevate it to a felony stop? She refused to comply to the traffic stop.
He was manipulated, intimidated, and had zero support from the other boys in blue. He was the only cop on the scene. The others were just in costumes
@@MegTelevisedthat had to suck. Hopefully she loses her job, and pays for her intentional failure to comply with laws she apparently prosecutes
She scared him with her position. Any other person would have been dragged out of that garage in handcuffs, zero questions.
Take her to civil court and fine her $500 million!!
Hehe, even though that's exactly what happened to Trump, he STILL won't say he's sorry for breaking the law. They both are pathetic.
Wait you don't think she has Absolute Immunity? Why not?
Omg! I am "The DA". Now who thinks they are above the law?
She prosecuted herself and paid the fine. Where was she above the law?
@@freezingcathedral, she said she paid the fine. Did she show receipts?
Every single person that works in law enforcement.
@@freezingcathedralOf course she did now. She couldn’t sweep it under the rug no matter how hard she tried, so she eventually gave up, because she had no other choice at that point
@@MarioGoatse, Research and you will find something out about her. She "was" a lifelong Democrat until 2015 when she changed her political affiliation to GOP riding the coattails of Trump to get reelected. Her quote is " Don't judge me by the political party I am affiliated with. Look at the work I have done." She is a Democrat trying to pass herself off as a Republican.
She said I am “The DA”. So entitled!!!
I would have said, "And when this gets out you will be THE UNEMPLOYED".
And that she didn’t “care “ if she was over the limit.
She actually is entitled, but she should have kept that to herself and just let the cop write her the ticket because any traffic court judge in New York State is going to immediately dismiss the charge the second they see who it is. The Devil should never remove his mask, he's supposed to look like a sheep at all times.
@@Alovellyone😂
She should be charged with resisting arrest and causing a police pursuit.
She must be removed from her position. What she did is completely unacceptable.
Entitlement at its finest
CHUMP AS WELL *FDT !*
💯
@@drumtwo4seven TDS is sad, see a doctor kid
Latia's or Fannis entitlements
She makes about $150k a year and thought it was worth risking her reputation for a $50-$300 traffic violation ticket.
She's got the reputation now. Pay up ya' filthy animal!
Not just a slime ball, but an incredible moronic slime ball. Just strip her of the badge and transfer her to a night shift dispatcher position. She needs to learn to serve law enforcement.
She's mayo.
Because they are used to getting away with it. She's a pig. Could you imagine being her employee or kid.
If she would of stopped, the cops would of been given her $50. to not jam him up at work. But you all elected her so, turn fruit over look for spoiled spots, before you vote for it
If that were me or most other people we'd have been arrested.
Nobody is above the law. Get this broad outta here asap...
Disgraceful. If your average joe did that, they'd be arrested for felony fleeing and eluding.
Old lady have been beaten by cops by not showing id after a traffic stops. White people have privileges. It's call complexion for the protection
Correct
Hell, a Black ass Joe would be dead by now with no press release
Exactly!
And have to appear in front of this corrupt b##ch.
Remove her on that position and serve her justice. Criminals idolize people like this.
She served justice by prosecuting herself and paying the fine. Her knowing it was a speeding ticket, taking it, prosecuting herself, and paying the fine... that's called honor. Sorry you lost that in this day and age.
@@freezingcathedralWow. Impressive dedication to defending her in every comment. Your commitment to replying to every comment defending her is truly remarkable.
@@freezingcathedralShe served herself justice because she had no choice. And people defend these elites who think they are above the law. Dems.
@@user-si3qc4pp5d Thank goodness for bodycam or she have prosecuted the police officer.
@@freezingcathedral Seriously? You think she acted honorably in this confrontation?
This will happens to our public officials when they think they’re above the law.
She was clearly trying to use her position to get out of it. 🤦
No
Maybe she had drugs in her car
did she get charged with evading? like a normal person would if they decided I'm just going to go home.
Bwwwahahahahaaaa.... RIght. "ITs good to be the King"
Fired her now!!!!!
She's an elected official, she can't be fired by anyone but the people at election time.
Yes..Fired her!!!the Laws for everyone No Exception!!!!
@@srhpb8923Unless you're 'an elderly man with a poor memory' says Robert Hur
She had every intention of abusing her position
The person entrusted to uphold the law, breaks it, and acts like it doesn't apply to her. Glad this is getting so much attention. She is history.
I bet you there is some law clerk in her office smiling ear to ear over her karma
If this DA thinks the laws don't apply to her how deep does it go? All her cases need to be reexamined for corruption in letting people off or illegal activities to convict people.
She should be given a choice fired or resign.
You know she lets criminals out of jail to rob us and shoot us all the time.
The ultimate Karen. Talk about White privilege. Sooo arrogant!!
@@Nighthawk-8050 just fired. no pension or benefits.
@@schanychamemphis1327 Exactly!
She should resign immediately. She’s pathetic.
Pathetic, that's just the word for this Karen.
No should be FIRED!
DA: I’ll investigate myself
Unfortunately, there are a lot of people out there acting exactly like. This officer is part of 50% that understands his responsibilities and took action as a real leader. Good Job officer! We need more public servants like you.
She should be fired immediately..
What a Karen!
No, a Karen is someone you can correct, a District Attorney is not.
@@BillySBCNa. She's a Karen. They come from all walks and jobs of life, including DAs.
Top Karen
Or Latia?
The fact she doesn’t care about how she was speeding. She needs to be removed asap
I am from Europe and the last time I visited family in Montana, I was stopped for doing 27mph in a 25mph zone. It was a very small town, no cars or people in sight and you could see from one end of the town to the other. The police officer then proceeded to escort me out of the town. I don't want to know what would've happened if I had been +20mph over the speed limit.
She needs to be fired immediately!
Any Other Citizen Would Have Been CHASED, CHARGED OR KILLED..😤😡😤
especially if they had skin with some color in it
She clearly never should have been placed in ANY position of authority.
She should be fired from the DA’s office and fined, even jail for not stopping for the cops. Everyone else would have been.
No one is above the law. Right.
Its always what I was taught n told. But what do they know?
She can always try the 'immunity' thing, just like a former president!
Except cops.
@@telebubba5527 she's a Republican
@@telebubba5527false equivalence, but nice try, that TDS is still strong
SO TIRED OF THESE PEOPLE WHO THINK THEY ARE ENTITLED TO BE ABOVE THE LAW. THEY SERVE THE PUBLIC!! AND, SHE'S A DA FOR CHRIST SAKE!! DISGUSTING!!!!!
Remove from office
What would happen to any one of us if we fled when being pulled over? That's all you need to know. She needs to be fired!
She should be fired
Unfortunately she is an elected official.
That's fleeing which should have been a felony stop and arrest.....
If she understands the law better than him then she knows that 20 over is an offense. If i told the court "i dont care" about going 20 over id be locked up.
Any person with arrogance to say” I AM THE D.A. “, Thinks she’s above the law. Arrest her, fire her, hire someone who fundamentally understands the law applies to all the same!
if someone said "do you really think I care I was speeding" see how fast they'll be cuffed and thrown in jail lol
She should be FIRED today.
A regular civilian would've been slammed on the driveway and charged with felony eluding, obstruction, resisting, etc...
Scrutiny? She should be terminated. She is corrupt, a person who thinks is above the law, and that the law doesn't apply to her.
Noone is above the law. Way to go to the Police Officer, doing his job correctly and with integrity.
The officer really didn't do his job, she should have been in handcuffs . So she did receive some type of privilege, if it was you I guarantee you would have been in handcuffs
Abuse of power
Some people in New York need to petition the judicial board for the courts to investigate the judge
FIRE HER. SHE'S ANOTHER KAREN.
no, only black will replace. more attitude.
Seems more like another Trump thinking she has absolute immunity
@@AngelaShawWestovenGet help with the TDS.🤡
@@AngelaShawWestovenbut she is a a Democrat and Peek A Boo James won't hold her accountable 😮
Not only is this embarrassing - so disrespectful to the job title her office and most of all the law. Shame on her.
She flashed her badge but there was "no intention to receive a benefit"...
Yeah, that's a whole dump truck full of BS, I can smell it from where I sit with the windows closed.
She says she's not above the law but she sure acted like she was😮
She's a pathetic liar. She had every intention of using her position of authority to get out of it. She said it herself she doesn't care that she was going twenty mph over the limit. She should've been arrested for attempting to elude. She clearly thinks the law foes not apply to her. She should be fired and barred from any position of power which could be abused.
You are talking about a potential speeding ticket.
Doesn’t The DA realise speed limits are made to keep people safe 🤦♀️
Im not surprised. Karen here wouldn't give the regular person caught speeding a break but expects to be given all the courtasy when she gets caught. Our tax dollars at work. Our votes at work. She should resign.
Fired is more like it!
Doesn’t The DA realise speed limits are made to keep people safe 🤦♀️
@@Karenannesevennot for her apparently! She feels she’s above the law
They ain't above the law. This is BS
make her resign and prevent her from serving in power anywhere else
Imagine what she does behind closed doors
Any other citizen would have never survived reaching into a car during a traffic stop.
Good point. Especially if she were black or brown.
Right. She was also real quick to show her badge but refused to show her License
At one point, she actually walks into her home and came back out into the garage a few seconds later
Last I checked eluding usually led to cops racing to join the party... guns up, yelling get out, walk backwards... all that shebang
Why wasn’t she charged with the felony for reckless driving anybody else would have been?
The judge should’ve recuse himself. This is judicial misconduct because he knows this DA.
There is one word for this. Corruption.
How may people can call the police chief during a traffic stop, and then end up with only a speeding ticket?
They both should be Fired Period Who police the DA are they really above law Wow she should be fired immediately and the chief if he okayed it
Not very many… police body cams are AWESOME! 😂
End up with ONLY a speeding ticket? That's exactly what the officer was trying to pull her over for.
Charges of alluding and 20 over should be (most states) a reckless driving charge.
@@moneyguy2008somebody else would have been in trouble for not pulling over pulled out of the car and beat up and taken to jail.
Remove her she thinks she is entitled. She did use her position. She called his cheif show the full video.
The job has already gotten to her if she can’t handle being pulled over knowing full well that she was 20 MPH over the speed limit and her excuse is she “don’t care” because she had to deal with “3 murder cases” ? This should be fact checked on this now that we know she’s a liar. Plus she said she “didn’t know that she was the one being pulled over” yet she was already on the phone with the officers supervisor when he caught up to her. She needs to go and now I would suspect all her cases would need to be reviewed do to her vagrant disregard for the law.
TOO MANY THINK THEY ABOVE THE LAW
*CHUMP20TOLIFE* 🇺🇸🇺🇸
She doesn't THINK she is above the law. SHE IS ABOVE THE LAW. SHE IS AN UTTER PIECE OF 💩.
@@drumtwo4seven[Orange Man Bad Protocol: Engaged] [Error lack of Funko Pops] Christ does he live in your head rent free
Wow. Just take the ticket. Unbelievable
Really, I mean it's not like a judge from the traffic court isn't going to take one look at her and throw the ticket out with a grin and a wink.
@@BillySBC Honestly if she'd just pulled over and flashed her credentials it likely wouldn't have even got to a ticket. Silly entitlement.
@@arteeire4364Total Karen energy
She wanted to make a statement over the arresting officer. It was a "HOW DARE YOU STOP ME!! I'M THE DA, YOUR JUST A LOWLY COP!!"
Needs fired if she doesn't even understand how a traffic stop works, pure narcissism.
Nothing alleged about it, she outright refused to stop.
No resignation. The State Attorney General must remove this DA for blatantly (and admittedly) breaking the law, threatening the officer’s job and blatant unprofessional conduct.
Do you think she would care if any of us were going 20 over?
That's the excuse everybody in that county should state when going to court for speeding. If the person in charge does not care, it's not a crime then.
She needs to be arrested and prosecuted and removed from office. She doesn't get to pick and choose.
REMOVE HER NOW!
Send her to jail. She broke the Law
She is only "accepting responsibility" because she knows it would make her look even worse if she doesn't, she should be fired immediately and disbarred!
Gonna have to fire the incompetent police officer as well.
@@ask_why000 Why is *_he_* incompetent?
Fire her!
she should resign, pay the fine is not enough
This definetly needs to cost her her job. No excuses. You need to resign or be fired.
Will never happen sweetie.
@@johnsmith1953x If so then she is just another Donald Trump, if the ex-president can be brought to Justice, then there should at least be the possibility of bringing this POS to Justice.
@@johnsmith1953x I think it will. The press this has gotten all over the country is incredible. She's done for.
@@lottaandgus Agree. Unlike most government officials, this one is elected, and therefore answerable to the voters. And the voters will not soon forget this! (And they will be reminded repeatedly by the opposing candidate!)
She underestimated the power of the camera.
Why didn’t she go to jail? Why wasn’t she prosecuted? Why wasn’t her badge taken away? Why isn’t she going to prison for her crimes like everybody else would
I saw the entire video lastnight. This is beyond disgusting. The epitome of entitlement. Laws for thee, but not for me... In the full video she says, "Go ahead, I'm not gonna prosecute myself". And she's horribly rude & disrespectful to the officer. The woman shouldn't be allowed to practice law when she believes she's above it, let alone be a District Attorney. Her public statement is complete BS, just trying to save face after being exposed... Too late! Absolutely appalling behavior.
Sack Her and send to jail
This is absolutely outrageous!!!!! Her own attitude about her being THE DA!!! Is this the way our government acts?? All of the people she prosecuted should demand their cases be over turned!!! How is she not arrested???
Her arrogance is breathtaking.
She seems too comfortable in her position. With great power comes great responsibility.
And apparently great arrogance!
Well said
She should be removed from her position.
Fire her immediately! She is corrupted as hell!
Corruption needs to be dealt with harshly!
That's what is wrong with our country....no respect for the laws. Why should we respect them?
SANDRA DOORLEY!! She needs to investigated
Laws need to be enforced for EVERYONE. Do you think any criminals care if the were breaking the law.
Investigation? How about handcuffs, jail and relived of her position immediately!
Get rid of her now please!!!
CHUMP FIRST, HER SECOND
@@drumtwo4sevenyou just can't get him out of your head can you..
New charges can be filed on the judge and the DA for misconduct and other allegations
No one is above the law. Including the DA of NY.
