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

Of course. The ESPN witness told a story that made a lot more sense. This fool cop ran after the car and tripped.

The new videos in this article show he stupidly drove through the center of fatality scene investigation. Yes it's dark, yes it's raining, yes there's tons of flashing lights -- but ignorance is no excuse. Just like telling a cop you didn't know the speed limit was such and such isn't a valid excuse to get out of a speeding ticket.

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!

Pilots go around the TSA line at every airport I have been to.

Tell the police!

Careful, your ignorance is showing.

Only thing showing in that previous post you lamely mis-cite is sarcasm and accuracy.

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?

Nil. They were showing up to pour lemonade.

Why didn't the detective turn on his body cam? You seem to be a stickler for rules. Is the detective also above the law?

The cop lied on his police report.

The golfer followed the lawful direction of the cops in charge of traffic. An investigator got involved, overreacted, lied on a police report, falsely arrested someone.

The detective lied on his police report.

This is a bigger issue than any silly golfer incident.

Now every single solitary one of his arrests will be called toquestion and anytime he was on the stand and provided testimony it will be considered a lie, unless it’s backed by other evidence.

DP. He's been "disciplined" for that. But they aren't going to drop the charges because they respect the judicial process. Srsly?

Other evidence = body cam footage

Your "bigger issue" is business as usual, nowadays. Trust but verify.

Seems like an overzealous prosecutor wants to make sure his name and face is associated with this. Seems legit. Seeking his 5 mins of fame.

And the prosecutor is being a problem.

Shows the justice system is such a mess.

Hopefully he's angry enough to sue and push it to a trial. How much is the reputational damage to the top ranked golfer in the world worth?

If I'm Scheffler, I'm donating a million to a PAC opposing that prosecutor in every race he ever runs in.
