Scottie didn't throw a chair off a roof onto a busy sidewalk. He was in a well-marked PGA car that was obviously heading into the tournament. He had no way of knowing there was a major accident. It sounds more like the police were a bunch of Keystone Kops on a power trip and it was all a misunderstanding. And Scheffler is known to be one of the nicest players in the PGA. He's already issued a very thoughtful statement explaining the incident. And what kind of police procedure involves 'attaching" oneself to a moving vehicle anyway?

I am generally pro-police. I think it can be a really difficult job. But good lord they do hire some idiots.


Nobody gives a damn what sport you play, you do not get to drive thru an active crime scene investigation of a fatality, no less. And when police tell you to stop, you need to comply.

Exactly.


It wasn't an "active crime scene" morons. This was the bottle neck a mile or so away.


Bottle neck because of a fatal accident involving a tournament staffer. Someone died, little more important than a golfer getting his morning smoothie.


A smoothie? You're just making up random stuff because you don't even know what happened at all. The cops should have been doing their job directing traffic and letting the players get to the course.


He wasn’t teeing off anytime soon when he did this. Why does some entitled athlete think he gets to cut the lineup of cars and illegally drive against traffic? Better yet, why do you think it’s okay for him to do it? If you saw similar happen, you’d wish a cop were around the ticket the driver. Quit being a jock sniffer.


Are you really this stupid? He's the reason there is traffic heading to the event. Usually athletes get escorts to their events.


Usually? Not last weekend. He should have sat his butt in traffic like everyone in front of him. He thought he was too entitled and important to wait. He thought wrong. And how sad are you to defend him. Break a traffic law, get charged, it’s that simple. And he should have complied; not complying made this all worse.


Yes, last weekend. Players have different traffic rules than spectators. That shouldn't be hard to comprehend. Why you are trying to spin something about one of the nicest men in sports into something it's not is beyond me. Get over the privilege issue. The fact that Scottie didn't get treated the same way he might have had he been black doesn't make him any guiltier here.


Nope.

Doctors en route to surgery, pilots to flights, politicians to events, professional athletes to game time, or paid speakers to new events, do NOT get to ask or attempt to drive around cops’ well-organized traffic stops whilst attending to an issue.

Everyone must sit there and thank the cops for their excellent and expedient service, judgment and behavior.

Praise the lord!


Careful, your ignorance is showing.

When a cop abuses his power on a black dude, the cop is a corrupt pos and police should be defunded.

When a cop abuses his power on a famous white dude (but the cop was probably too dumb to realize he had targeted a famous dude) he's just doing his job and clearly the white guy is getting off light because he's white.

What's it gonna be?

I'm laughing my ass off. You guys are terrible.


He's getting off because he didn't do anything wrong.

Could this have gone down differently had the driver been black or brown? It sure could have, and that's a depressing truth about our country, but it has no bearing on what actually happened here. Scottie can be innocent and we can have racial injustice in the US. Both things can be true.


So, unless a driver shot by a cop during a traffic stop it's an unjust outcome? As if every black or brown driver gets killed with every roadside arrest? It's not really clear what point the PP is trying to make. If Scottie was truly privileged and throwing around the "don't you know who I am!?" He wouldn't have been arrested in the first place.


He tried the do you know who I am. It’s on camera. He asked the ESPN reporter to “help,” as in, explain to this cop I’m a big deal and can violate traffic laws as I wish. Let me go at once, I have an important smoothie to nosh and driving range balls to hit. 🤣🤣🤣


Why do you keep going on about a smoothie? You don't seem very smart.


Because it was 5AM or 6AM and Scottie wasn’t scheduled to tee off until 10AM. He needed to just relax and wait in traffic like everyone else and this would have never happened.

Like everyone else? Sure. What time were they teeing off?

No camera recording. Defendant is a famous, rich white guy whose reputation cannot be sullied by a plea bargain because sponsors are not going to like that.

And, they overcharged him. Including a felony. That makes it very political. The Republicans are pushing “felony charge is hold to deport” as their cornerstone immigration issue. Well - Sheppler just showed how trumped up that crap can be.



Why doesn't he just come clean and admit he screwed up and violated traffic laws because he didn't feel like waiting in traffic (which was backed up for a roadway fatality)? He stepped in it, bottom line. It's not cool to violate traffic laws around such a hectic and busy sporting event, as evident by a traffic fatality he was trying to go around.


Because he doesn't think he did anything wrong. Would you admit to doing something you didn't do?


Illegal driving maneuvers to dodge traffic are in fact wrong. He knows that.


It's almost as if you can't comprehend a situation in which someone would do something other than follow the normal traffic rules under special circumstances. Have you ever driven on the wrong side of the road when one side is being repaved? Should you be in jail?


Dude, a worker was just killed in a traffic accident. It’s raining. It’s dark. And this spoiled golfer thinks he should reckless drive against traffic to avoid waiting in line. And then ignore a cop directing traffic.

He screwed up. Bottom line. There’s no conspiracy by a cop. The cop was out there trying to make the roadway safe for everyone.


He thought he was doing what he was told to do. Give me another situation in which Scottie Scheffler has acted like a spoiled or entitled person. I'll wait.


Agree.

And it wasn’t just any road in any place. It was outside the venue of a major golf championship, where the golfers were already instructed how to proceed to the course around backups. And so that’s how he proceeded, as the golfers were told to do. It was dark and rainy, and he had no way of knowing that this backup was different and that a man was killed.

The road outside of the entrance is a known dangerous HIGHWAY where a fatality just occurred.

Doesn’t change the established process that was communicated to the golfers, and they had no reason to question.

Yep this officer was not part of the regular detail for the event and gave conflicting instructions from what has been previously communicated.

+1
This guy plays and dozens of golf tournaments throughout the year, maneuvers through all kinds of traffic, goes around barriers, is waved through at every single event as he is the reason for the traffic, and he’s supposed to say to himself gee I wonder if this traffic on this specific day on this specific highway at this specific entrance is for another reason? Why I better wait here in this traffic just in case!

Where is your precise source from that he got instructions to break the law and drive recklessly? The only person alleging he got these instructions to break the law and drive recklessly is his lawyer?

Most cops are bloody idiots. The barrier to entry is incredibly low. It is tougher to become a real estate agent. This is why ACAB.

I'm a DP but for whatever it is worth, there were other golfers who said they did the same thing Scheffler did (moving around traffic) to enter the club.

That’s Barney - or Bernard to you, poster.

Yes, this is also why he appealed to the ESPN journalist for help. Because even as he was being arrested, he thought the issue was that they didn’t realize he was a golfer who was supposed to be there.

Please cite a source. I've seen this alleged over and over, I have yet to see it published anywhere. Who exactly told these players (?), and which other players did what he did (?), drove recklessly in the median and the wrong way against traffic?

Well the cop lied.

I knew it from the beginning…. LEO family member here.

Hearing the story didn’t make sense.

So the video is out. Maybe someone can find “the good one” apparently there is a good one I can only find the bad one from behind the buses.

Bad for good cops when bad ones lie
