Well, it appears Shaun King (still needs to apologize) and while it's nice the attorney has now apologized for pimping a fake rape charge against a DPS officer, I hope the department files charges against her for her fake accusations. When you read the accusations she made, then compare it to the very clear video of the entire incident, she is obviously a lying fool.


DPS says body cam clears trooper of sexual assault; accuser’s attorney apologizes
A woman accused a Texas DPS trooper for sexually assaulting her during a traffic stop. But after a review of the body cam footage, DPS says no wrongdoing was found.

The Texas Department of Public Safety has released dash camera video of a traffic stop that has gained national attention, debunking a woman's claims that a trooper sexually assaulted her.

DPS says Trooper Daniel Hubbard saw a 2013 Chevrolet Malibu driving south on Interstate 35 in Ellis County near U.S. 287 and the car was stopped for a traffic violation. Based on the traffic stop, the driver was arrested for driving while intoxicated. She was taken to the Ellis County jail and charged with DWI.

Following the arrest, allegations were made against Hubbard. DPS says it took those allegations seriously, immediately reviewing the traffic stop and arrest. It ultimately concluded there was no evidence to support the allegations that any wrongdoing occurred.

btw: excerpt of some of the fake accusations they were pimping (per that idiot Shaun King and her lawyer) below:

"The family also alleges that the trooper who pulled Cole over at 1:30 a.m. on May 20 in Waxahachie, Tex., said Dixon-Cole could go home if she agreed to have sex with him. Details are sketchy as the story continues to develop, but according to Dixon-Cole’s statement, when she declined, “she was taken to Hubbard’s cruiser and forcefully groped, fondled and vaginally penetrated during a prolonged arrest that included assaults outside and inside of the police vehicle.”

This is why all cop should have body cams. It protects them from people making BS accusations of misconduct against them.

Just wait... BLMer's will figure out the cameras keep exposing their lies then they'll claim the officer bodycams are racist!

Yes... it's becoming that damn silly!
 
Body cameras are a good thing for all involved.

This is becoming a regular thing. Just a good reason to use bodycams. It protects everyone involved.

SC NAACP leader says he was racially profiled. Body cam footage tells different story

The president of a local chapter of the NAACP in South Carolina said he was racially profiled in April by a police officer when he was pulled over for a traffic violation, but body camera footage released by the Timmonsville Police Department contradicts the reverend’s claims.

“TONIGHT I WAS RACIALLY PROFILED by Timmonsville Officer CAUSE I WAS DRIVING A MERCEDES BENZ AND GOING HOME IN A NICE NEIGHBORHOOD,” Jarrod Moultrie posted on Facebook April 13.

Bob Marley's granddaughter plans to sue California police after alleged racial profiling

Donisha Prendergast, granddaughter of reggae legend Bob Marley, plans to sue a southern California police department saying she and a group of friends were racially profiled and swarmed by police while leaving an Airbnb.

The Rialto Police Department was served Monday with a notification of pending legal action on behalf of Prendergast and two other people involved in the encounter, Komi-Oluwa Olafimihan and Kelly Fyffe-Marshall, according to a press release.

At a press conference, Police showed body cam footage of the encounter which features Prendergast and her friends joking with police officers. The department released a statement saying that the officers did not at any time restrain the people involved and “treated the involved individuals with dignity, respect and professionalism.”

Police say the encounter only lasted 22 minutes, after which officers "learned the residence was an unlicensed Airbnb," according to the statement.

 
Not familiar with this story but if true just another reason all law enforcement agencie should move to a body cam protocol :shrug:

it creates a transparency and accountability circle.

cop has protection from fake claims
public has protection from fake claims

BLMer's?

FYI, there are white cops that belong to BLM

retarded and stupid actions by individuals do not represent the whole anymore then anti-gun extremest represent the left and antigay bigots represent the right. Morons are simply individuals.

There have been a rash of these types of false accusations recently -- what gives?

This is one of the reasons I am loathe to buy into all the #MeToo claims.

However, the attorney that was representing the woman in this case has made a statement. He understands that stuff like this hurts everyone.

Glad to see the truth come out. I would suggest we pass a law that if it can be proven that someone made a false accusation that person gets at least the minimum sentence the victim could have gotten.

Yep. Agree

(they really didn't think that one through when they named it)

I really believe that's fair. If a person knowingly makes a false accusation that could result in punishment for the innocent party, the accuser should be ready to accept that same sentence if caught.

I think that's absolutely fair.

So since you don’t buy into the #metoo movement (in part or whole) What percentage of making claims of sexual harassment, or more importantly, various forms of sexual assault, do you believe is false?

Would you prefer that women who actually have legitimate claims, stay silent, so as to not disturb the many skeptics who feel that they (and society in general) are victims of having to read about, or see televised reports, on such matters, which they’ve decided are hoaxes based primarily on their personal beliefs that media or women are prone to lie for malevolent reasons?

I imagine he would prefer people stop making false accusations of rape, since that harms actual victims of rape because now they're more concerned with not being believed and are less inclined to seek help.

So are you going to the the arbitrator who decides on who is making false claims? Due process shouldn’t apply in such matters? If not you, who is going to be the chief lie detector in charge who will be given the power to sort out the guilty from the non-guilty?

Oh, and Howard claims to be a “she, not a he”. I can’t say for sure one way or the other. :shrug:

Actually, I think people should be free to form their own opinions on the validity those types of claims. Why shouldn't they?

Preemptive hypothetical victim card fabrication. Go figure.

I'm sure some of the claims are legit, but of recent, it's become a fad to falsely accuse someone else, as evidenced by this OP, and by the other cases we've seen here in the past few weeks. #MeToo is designed specifically FOR claims - nothing else - and we're seeing a large number of those highly publicized claims being refuted. Our entire justice system is designed on the premise that someone is innocent until proved guilty in a court of law. The MeToo group bypasses that simple, but very important, measure and just expects that all claims will be believed.

Would you prefer that women who actually have legitimate claims, stay silent, so as to not disturb the many skeptics who feel that they (and society in general) are victims of having to read about, or see televised reports, on such matters, which they’ve decided are hoaxes based primarily on their personal beliefs that media or women are prone to lie for malevolent reasons?

I would prefer women who have legitimate claims to either report them to a supervisor (or another) at their place of work, or report them (if assault) to the authorities. But the MeToo movement doesn't have a set of checks and balances in place to weed out the false accusers, so even the legitimate ones are begining to look suspicious.

The relative term here is integrity.

"She," you are correct.

Let me explain how I see the MeToo movement (and, btw, the group is starting to take on a lot of criticism) so you'll better understand my position.

When I was a kid in school, a group of fairly popular boys would stand along one side of the hallway and talk about girls who passed by. Why no one ever stopped them is beyond me, but it escalated to the boys hollering out personal information about the girls that they (supposedly) only could have gotten if they'd been intimate, things like pubic hair color or vagina tightness, etc. Rude things. Hurtful things. Some of what they said might have been true, I don't know, but some were absolutely NOT true, like the things one boy said about me. I'd (nicely) turned him down for a date and I think that pissed him off. Anyway, dozens of girls were talked about in that manner and I think it was ridiculous, whether or not it was true.

I feel the same way about the MeToo groupies -- some of the claims might be factual -- but there's no good reason to start hollering out the claims now. Especially, because many are being denied.

This is a good article that explains why it's okay to criticize the movement -- I hope you read it.

You think? You might send your reply to Spartacus FPV and possibly, Howard.

I believe that people who claim that there is an specified, or unquantified, number of false claims by women who are a part of a movement such as #metoo - at least offer some information about how they have concluded that there’s “too many false claims”.

So I’m not sure if I’m seeing “opinions” or some making unsubstantiated claims that “there are too many women” who are fundamentally lying about being sexually harassed or assaulted? All I wanted to know from “Howard” was, how many, or what percentage of these women “that he” believes are lying. And just as importantly, how he acquired the quantity or percentage that is the impetus for him believing that there are X number too many involved in making false claims.

Do you think that a condemnation of women, who are making such claims, is appropriate without having some specific knowledge about how many of those women merit being condemned as liars?

So, what’s your opinion about women making false claims? And if you too believe “too many claims are false, please include why you “are opining” that too many claims are false.

Thanks
