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?

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.
“Free Scottie!!!!”
You want to be mad about this but it was all a big nothing.
I’ve never illegally driven against traffic or illegally used the median to cut traffic. And I’ve never disobeyed an officer’s orders. The entitled pro athlete should have just patiently waited in line like all the law-abiding people in front of him.
He was waived through by a different officer. Barney Fife on a power trip is going to get destroyed over this. It's sad that it takes a professional athlete with resources to fight back against a cop on a power trip, but at least somebody is
Cite a source and the officer’s name who “waived him through.” You can’t. Because it’s crisis PR nonsense.
His attorney says he was. The arresting cop had his body cam turned off (in violation of department policy implemented as part of a consent decree) and works for one of the most corrupt departments in the country (hence the consent decree). We're well past a cop's statement, let alone a department PR statement, meaning anything without corroboration
Where's the camera footage of an officer who allegedly "waived him through"?It doesn't exist because it's nonsense.
Funny burden of proof you've got there.

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.
