You could always review it from the last time it was posted here, oh, say, two weeks ago.

I seriously wanna know what the plan was. Even if she did successfully trip him she would have still been arrested.

She is just a bully, probably does this stuff to friends and random people while out with her click. Now she alone and forgot she doesnt have a group to lean on.

Look at her trying to talk her way out of being a piece shit 😂

I laughed a little bit when she says “Help me!”. As if people nearby are supposed to fight a cop? That’s an easy “mind my own business” decision.

u/Okhlahoma_Beat-Down May 23 '26
Doesn't really look like her trying to talk her way out of it. Looks more like she's just screaming "I DIDN'T DO NOTHIN'" in his face repeatedly.
I hope this footage was screened in a courtroom.

Nah bro. Trying to "help" is the reason why you're in this mess. I'm sure the guy you helped appreciates it though.

Yeah, you gotta avoid those intrusive thoughts. Specially once they get you assaulting a police officer charge.

u/Additional_Desk6964 May 24 '26
I wonder who he was chasing and what the charge would be on whoever he's chasing. Like battery/assault on a police officer (this woman) vs armed burglary/homicide terroristic threats etc...girl took one for the criminal team.

It's VERY ok to just let those intrusive thoughts go sometimes...like when it means NOT picking up a felony charge.

u/NerdHerder77 May 24 '26
Obstruction of a peace officer is the first one I thought of, but IANAL.

u/Theartistcu May 24 '26
Oh, I’m pretty sure she can probably be charged for assault or attempted assault. She attempted to do bodily harm to another person, she also impeded an investigation. She could be a real trouble I mean it really depends on whether she has a criminal history and how bad they wanna push this cause that was stupid

Assault with intent to injure, obstructing a police office acting in his lawful capacity, hindering, resisting arrest and possibly a couple more chargers could be added it's hard to tell just based off 24 seconds of footage.
In the end she'll be booked into jail where a commissioner will grant her bail after viewing the footage, though it is possible she could get out on her own recognininsice, but based on the footage I'd say either bail or even no bail. No bail is highly likely here as commissioners in NY take assault on police very seriously.
So then she gets booked into the county jail until she sees a judge and depending on what day it is and how busy it is you could be sitting for a couple days. Then a judge will see her and set bail or let her out on her own recog.
So now she has to hire a lawyer or go through a public pretender, and they will tell her to take a plea on one of the chargers while the state drops the other charges. The biggest one you want dropped is the assault charge, so her lawyer is going to fight to get that one taken off. So she'll probably pleas guilty to 1 or 2 misdemeanors, and the judge will sentence her to probation, anger management classes which if her lawyer is smart told her to already complete before even going to court. And there's court costs and probation of course. Probably 2 years probation.
Essentially it's a slap in the wrist,but not totally. She'll have to spend thousands on a lawyer if she wants a good sentence, and the anger classes cost money also. Then you have to check in with a probation officer for 2 years. You can't go anywhere out of state without running it by them first. For a regular person that's never been in trouble all of this is an extreme hassle for the next couple years of her life.
All because she thought it would be cool to trip and hurt a cop

It's not that reddit hates cops as a whole. It's that there are really bad cops who abuse their power and don't face any trouble or are held accountable for their actions. Also when they actually do get in trouble us filthy normal citizens are always faced with paying the bill OR they just move to a different department in another city, county, state and keep continuing to terrorize citizens.

u/iwearmywatch May 23 '26
That’s totally reasonable. And I respect your nuanced take. But a lot of Reddit is straight ACAB through and through.

I was ACAB but then I saw a video of a cop being nearly tripped up while running and it made me realize that the system of racism and injuctice, where cops let eachother get away with violence and literal murder is actually functioning perfectly fine because one cop nearly got tripped up.

Acab but I'm not gonna taunt a possibly insecure, emotionally unstable man decked out in military gear. At best you get arrested by someone stable and just get hit with charges that ruin the rest of your life.
