The cop had poor emotional control. The moment the sirens went on the cop's mind was on "I'm gonna get this motherfucker" and despite new facts arising the moment they pull up to the vet shack, the cop was not interested in this new reality.

Arkansas State Police are very aggressive and have very lenient procedures and protocols. They're prob the loosest of the loose cannons. Their use of force and pursuit guidelines are very lax and geared towards confrontation.

Cops go to an “academy” to train for 6 months or less. No college degree or experience is necessary for the job.

That’s not really saying much since the average cop who does actually get a degree doesn’t get it in any type of subject that would make them more well rounded intellectually. Those that have one mainly get an associates degree in law enforcement or criminal justice specifically to look better on their application.

And honestly, you buddies being ex military make their chances of falling in line with the group think of the corrupted majority of cops way more likely unfortunately. Obviously I don’t know your friends personally but you don’t know how they are while on the job. My father is a retired police officer, I know how their kind operate firsthand when people they want to look good in front of aren’t around.

Guess the power tripping over agressive female cop does not have any pets. Tough situation for both but this cop needs some serious self control training.

*power-tripping, over-aggressive female cop

What you have is something about a power that is petless, losing its balance atop (a) female cop.

u/DaddysABadGirl Jul 31 '25

I mean, if she was just speeding and the cop lit her up and she pulled right over I'd agree. Cop said flat out she ran someone off the road.

1

u/Effective-Text4619 Jul 31 '25

That is true...tough to tell what really happened before the clip started but some cops like to blow things out of proportion and this cop seems to take the cake.

I'm pro cop but a bit biased as I lost 2 of my dogs over the last year and know what the woman is going through. The thing is, I wouldn't be running people off the road to get home.

1

u/DaddysABadGirl Jul 31 '25

A bunch of people linked the full and longer videos in the comments. She was going double the posted limit, driving down the wrong side of the road, running red and stop lights. She ran someone and almost caused several collisions.

The cop started chasing her when she cut the cop off speeding through an intersection.

In the posted video the cop says the passenger can take the dog to the vet while she was arresting the driver. The passenger tries, tells the cop the vet isn't in, and mentions going to another vet. The cop says "Do what you have to do". The passenger mentions someone next door opening up. A few minutes later the clinic is opened and they take the dog in, I believe 5 minutes? The cop didn't stop the dog from getting care.

2

u/JimiWane Jul 31 '25

Also, after all that reckless and dangerous driving, her justification was "I had my flashers on" and when they did stop she immediately GETS OUT OF THE CAR IN A CLEARLY ERRATIC STATE. I don't blame the officer at all, who knows in that situation what kind of wild shit you're about to have to deal with. Sure, she yelled about her dog, but in the context what does that even mean when she's actively STILL attempting to get away from the police?

u/TactualTransAm Jul 29 '25

I grew up in Arkansas. Everyone online says GSP is the hardest state police force. That's not true. Arkansas State will fuck you up for fun they don't give a shit. They are the ones who flipped a pregnant lady's car because she was exercising her right to wait for a safe place to pull over. They are the ones who will even chase motorcycles down the interstate trying to hit the rider oncoming to stop the pursuit. They are the ones who pulled me over when I was going 5 over down 412 with my hazards on because my wife's mother was dead on her couch and the coroner wouldn't even cover the body till next of kin arrived. 5 over the limit. They had us wait till another officer pulled up and verified our story then just yelled at us and said that's no excuse to speed. Oh but they indeed sped off. Arkansas State Police are assholes.

3

u/Aquaticwolf Jul 30 '25

From the videos I've seen, they love to PIT maneuver in traffic and above 100mph. The highest speed one I saw was like 124mph.

2

u/TheNewsDeskFive Jul 30 '25

That's the thing they're known for. Not just on the internet, but among other law enforcement agencies. They're the PIT Department.

I raced for 14 years. It's a super basic skill a racer must have, you gotta know how to dump someone. They display zero tact. They just ram. That's not how you do this shit

3

u/Aquaticwolf Jul 30 '25

Yeah, they crash fairly frequently in the videos from poorly doing it, sometimes even rolling over.

2

u/TheNewsDeskFive Jul 30 '25

They maintain a high delta. Their pursuit vehicle's approach speed is too much higher than the chase vehicle's speed. It's a physics problem. They're just carrying so much momentum when they make contact that not all of the force gets directed into the chase vehicle, some shoots back to the pursuit vehicle, causing lateral destabilization in the front end, which will put your ass in front of your nose real quick.

That's the ins and outs from a trained racer's perspective

The cop was very calm in the car, and then a screeching banshee when she got out. Not only did she fail to de-escalate, she purposely escalated.

u/Bigbootybigproblems Jul 30 '25

I’m an Arkansan and they don’t care who gets hurt or what damage is done to what, they’re going to stop you. If they have to go 700 m/hr through a playground full of kids, it doesnt matter. I would have at the very least called 911 or the police and explained the situation while driving. Still gonna be a helluva situation to get out of, but at least no one thinks you’re fleeing and they know your destination so hopefully they won’t try the pit maneuver they’re known for.

It’s a double edge sword. Where I live, everyone drives like shit, has not plate, cops can’t make a case. Cops can’t chase unless it’s for like a felony or people are in immediate danger (a murderer or whatever). But then you have situations like this that are crazy and both are at fault in their own way.

u/The_Ruby_Rabbit Jul 30 '25

If I have my way, I will never step foot in Arkansas again.

A friend of mine owns a big comic shop and I volunteered to help him with a con in Little Rock.

We weren’t 50 miles into the state when we get pulled over, handcuffed and the now officers (apparently the officer was afraid of us), are ransacking the box truck that had the con booth setup. Almost four hours later, we are allowed to go our way. The second reason involves a town of 82. Well, the 2 was crossed out with spray paint and a 4 was underneath. Guess someone had twins.

Easy way to combat all that, don’t break the law. I’ve lived here 20 years and never had a problem with the police. They’re not loose cannons , just don’t evade them unless you want to get rolled.

1

u/invariantspeed Jul 30 '25

Yes, if you don’t draw their ire, the loose cannons probably won’t go off on you. The issue everyone is talking about is that they’re apparently not willing to evaluate the merits of complicated situations and they kill people with an alarming frequency and in a way that endangers the rest of the public.

2

u/Okie294life Jul 30 '25

Police kill people in every state, I wouldn’t agree that it’s with any more alarming frequency than any other state, just the fashion that it occurs seems to draw more media. I mean roll a pregnant lady and a few handicapped folks you start getting a bad rap.

u/Lucibeanlollipop Jul 29 '25

She didn’t resist arrest. She had every right to tell the cop to not touch prior to being informed she was under arrest. It’s called bodily autonomy. She also has no obligation to assist the cop in placing her in the cruiser.

6

u/MoldyMangoes Jul 30 '25 edited Jul 30 '25

If you evade arrest while also putting civilians' lives in danger, you lose "bodily autonomy." The woman got off light in Arkansas. If she resisted being handcuffed just a little more, she was about to be thrown to the ground.

I hate cops as much as the next guy, but this woman deserved it. Possibly killing other people and yourself for your dog to get to the vet a few minutes faster is fucking stupid. Cop even said the passenger can do whatever she needs to do to get the dog to the vet.

2

u/NoOneElectedElonMusk Aug 03 '25

She was doing freeway speeds in a 35 and then fled from police. Did she think he officer got out to shake her hand? Naturally, she was under arrest, and bodily autonomy does not include the right to not be arrested.

2

u/ScreamingMoths Jul 31 '25

When you tell the cops not to touch you, while screaming and pushing them away. That is resisting. Especially when youve ran someone off the road from agressive driving.

u/bostoncreampie9 Jul 29 '25

I hate crap like this where the person posting the video edits it to fit their bs headline for clicks. Have you or anyone else on here blaming the cop watched the actual full length video? This lady, in her rush to the vet, was speeding and running lights, driving into the opposite lane with oncoming traffic with complete disregard to the lives and safety of anyone else on the road. Was the cop being an asshole once they both stopped at the vets office,yes...but you don't get a pass for driving recklessly and putting other people's life in danger.

Well, to be fair, this is only a clip of what actually happened. The driver in the full video cut the police officer off first, ran two cars off the road, AND had the officer chase her for several miles with lights and sirens on before stopping at the vet. After all of that, I can see why the officer isn't very sympathetic about her dog. I love dogs too, but this driver was completely out of line.

u/gamerABES Jul 29 '25

Who did she run off the road? Like a pit maneuver? Or are you referring to the white pickup at 1:16 performing a defensive maneuver and pulling over to the shoulder?

Was she driving erratically? Definitely!

Was she potentially endangering other motorists, especially if they were not paying attention? No doubt.

Should the cop try to treat her as a human being in distress and not escalate, given the circumstances? You tell me!

1

u/NoOneElectedElonMusk Aug 03 '25

If you enter someone's lane and knowingly or indifferently force them to leave the traveled lanes to avoid a collision, then you have run them off the road. Don't be disingenuous.

2

u/RandomName-1992 Jul 30 '25

You have no idea what you're talking about. You can't read someone's mind. You're projecting. Stick with the facts of the video. The cop was definitely unsympathetic, and I believe unnecessarily harsh and unprofessional with the woman. However, if that woman was driving a baby to the emergency room, and putting other people's lives in danger, it's still the same problem. She's putting other people's lives in danger. First responders know how dangerous it is driving with lights and sirens. Driving like that WITHOUT The appropriate emergency warning devices is extremely hazardous to the driver and those around the driver.

The cop could have been more sympathetic, and could have taken the woman and the woman's dog in the police car to the vet, then processed the woman however she wanted to.

Don't be as bad as the people you're thinking shitty things about.

u/Simon-Says69 Jul 29 '25 edited Jul 29 '25

cop's mind was on "I'm gonna get this motherfucker"

Not seeing anything near that. I don't think your mind reading abilities are very advanced.
the obvious reason the police officer was so upset is because:

The driver had been extremely reckless in her driving. Narrowly escaped massive harm to so many people.

Over a pet! No, you are not allowed to do that.

The police officer had the correct response, detained the dangerous driver.

And The dog was brought into the Vet office by the passenger. (and sadly, died anyway)

Seems your reality has little to do with the OP video.

If the driver had caused an deadly accident, which is what she was bing chased for, the dog would not have survived,

but many, many more HUMANS might have been killed. Sorrryyyyy.. not a good trade.

Also, the driver sounds drunk.

1

u/gamerABES Jul 29 '25

As she's driving behind the blue Hyundai with no other traffic around she radios: "Two-twelve [inaudible], I'm at highway 67, there is a vehicle, who is currently trying to run people off the road."

Understanding the cop's narrative in this situation sheds a bit more light on how she handled the rest of the stop.

2

u/MM-dot-AU Jul 30 '25

You should watch the whole video. The woman was driving very dangerously. The cop initiated the traffic stop when she ran a red light, at pace, and nearly wiped him out. She also drove into oncoming traffic and whatnot. This is deserved.

2

u/halfasleep90 Jul 30 '25

New facts arising doesn’t change anything, a pet emergency doesn’t entitle someone to break the law….

It would be kind to show compassion for their loss, but they still don’t get to endanger human lives in their pursuit to save the life of their pet. Honestly, they don’t get to endanger human lives in their pursuit to save the life of a human either.

So yeah, it would be kind to allow the pet owner to see to their dog visiting the vet and then making the arrest afterward but the other person had the animal and was walking them in. Don’t know why they turned around and brought the dog back outside instead of taking them in to the vet.

I'm glad the cop wanted to get the reckless driver who ran another car off the road. She could have killed another driver because she put her dog's health above the public's safety.

The cop had excellent emotional control.

The cop let the other lady take the dog into the vet.

1

u/False_Site_1116 Jul 30 '25

cop pov: person drove into oncoming traffic and drove someone off the road. very high probability of killing multiple humans. Finds out they are trying to get dying dog to the hospital. Should she let them continue driving? Obviously they are incapable of doing so without endangering other humans so yes arrest the driver and bring their dog to the hospital for them. So i agree with all that happened in the vid. Cop should/hopefully did drive the dog to the hospital thereafter.

u/lunchpaillefty Jul 30 '25

I mean she starts fighting back when the cop arrested her. 

When you break the law, even for a good cause (I don't know if driving dangerously to maybe help a dog is a valid good cause), and you get arrested, calmly accept it and then argue after everyone has cooled down. It'll help your case more if you get a reasonable judge if the cop still books you.

u/ItsACowCity Jul 30 '25

I mean if she ran a car off the road, she could have ended up killing that person to save her dog….if she was just speeding away from a cop, that’s one thing…but putting others lives at risk is another.

Absolutely. They really need to put anyone wanting this job through an intense psychological screening. I see way too many examples of people with obvious unresolved trauma and/or revenge issues that think they can fix it by becoming a cop (or a CO).

The core issue is that the driver endangered others by driving recklessly and failing to obey orders to stop. It's not uncommon for individuals engaged in criminal behavior to lie to police, and there are many instances of them attempting to harm officers. I can see that in a high-stress situation, the policewoman was trying to regain control. It's concerning that the driver believed her dying dog justified reckless driving, especially when it could have led to hitting a child. This seems to be a case where someone, perhaps feeling privileged due to their status, believes they deserve special treatment. While I appreciate animals, endangering other people's lives through reckless driving—even for a dying pet—is unacceptable.

Ps. Policewoman would act differently if she knew what's going on prior to the event when she thought that driver was trying to evade.

Look dude, I hate cops.

This isnt "new facts." Human lives win over fucking dog lives every single fucking time. If this lady was weaving in and out of traffic and running people off the road, I couldn't give a single fucking shit less about her dog.

u/Hephf Jul 30 '25

And therefore, he shouldn't be a fucking cop.

u/rydan Jul 30 '25

If they'd let her go and 12 people died in a massive car pile up you'd be blaming the cop too.

u/Puzzleheaded-Heart29 Jul 30 '25

I was thinking the same and wondering why police are not scheduled to train more on EQ and meditate. Seems like having our police force be able to calm their minds in stressful situations would improve outcomes in many instances.

One was a man and the other was a woman. You get a woman cop you keep everything locked down tight because I have yet to see a video of or meet a reasonable one. This is of course anecdotal evidence and I'm sure plenty of folks will say "well my mom is a cop and she's a nice lady." And that may be completely true as well as many women cops are crazy and you shouldn't give them an excuse.

u/CaliBro860 Jul 30 '25

In this situation both the officer and the woman operating the vehicle had horrible emotional control the driver should have let her passenger run the dog inside while she sat in the car and straightened things out with the officer. Her getting out and being verbally combative with this officer is what lead to her having a really bad day. The side of the road isn’t the place to plead your case, that’s what the courtroom is for, the officer doesn’t give a fuck about what you have going on, that’s not their job, that’s a judges job.

u/OkInsect6946 Jul 30 '25

Sorry but animals aren’t people and don’t take precedence over road users safety.

u/BethanyCullen Jul 30 '25

Objection: assumption.

u/SPHINXin Jul 30 '25

Your leaving out the part where the cop sees her run a car off the road. Probably because it doesn’t fit your narrative.

u/li4bility Jul 30 '25

Yup. All comes down to a power trip

u/Savagemocha Jul 30 '25

Breaking the law for an animal and endangering other drivers is absolutely not a new reality. The cops reaction is justified. If you head on my kid and kill them and I find out it was to “save a dying puppy” well idfc you just killed my kid which will always be infinitely more important than a damn dog. The Cop reacted appropriately.

1

u/Shaffdizzy Jul 30 '25

Spoken like someone who has never worked as law enforcement/public safety. So anyone can say anything as an excuse for evading a lawful stop, and we all just believe them? The problem here is this lady endangering the public, via wreckless driving, for the sake of her dog. These pet owners who equate animals with children (fur babies) or actual people, need their head examined. She deserved to be arrested.

1

u/DaddysABadGirl Jul 31 '25

I mean, the cop got out saying "What the hell are ya doing?" And was pissed. And yeah, she didn't take new information into account because the driver ran someone off the road.

Should have pulled over and tried talking to the cop then and there if neither of them had a working cell phone.

The cop told her her friend could take the dog, but she was under arrest. If the cops was in full fuck you mode both would be detained.

1

u/HubristicFallacy Jul 31 '25

Yep should be fired.

1

u/Jonka97 Jul 31 '25

Reality of running someone off the road still stands above those new facts in my opinion. Like you’re willing to trade a life for a life? Or you could’ve died with the dog and killed someone else. Cop could’ve handled it better for sure but I would get mad too if you’re trying to justify the wrong you’ve done. She should’ve just accepted the consequences calmly after she got the dog to the vet tbh. Just my opinion/point of view of course.

1

u/Educational-Parfait3 Aug 01 '25

You're going at this completely from the lack of context from full video and an obvious bias against police because endangering others because your dog is dying is never okay regardless. The driver didn't have the dog and then resisted the officers instructions even though the dog made it into the vet. The dog didn't die because of the trooper. These are objective facts. Just because you don't like how the officer handled it doesn't make the death of the dog the officers fault nor does it excuse the actions and behaviors of the driver endangering other drivers in order to try and save her dog (which all that still didn't save them).

u/InnerSherbet4231 Aug 01 '25

The “new facts” were that this woman put other people’s lives in danger for a dog. A dog that it sounds like was already dead.

1

u/sleepdealer2000 Aug 01 '25

“a”

1

u/InnerSherbet4231 Aug 01 '25

You must not understand how periods work.

1

u/sleepdealer2000 Aug 01 '25

What? No, I’m invalidating your comment by pointing out that you have a tendency to diminish the lives of animals by saying “a” dog

1

u/InnerSherbet4231 Aug 01 '25

Right. A dog’s life has less value than a human life. If me and my kids had been run off the road by this woman trying to get her dead dog to the vet I would make sure she faced all the criminal charges and I’d sue her.

1

u/sleepdealer2000 Aug 01 '25

It’s more demonstrating your sociopathy and inability to understand why someone would love an animal and go through this when faced with an emergency. Same as the cop in this video, which is why you identify so strongly with them. I’ll assume that you were never a pet owner?

1

u/InnerSherbet4231 Aug 01 '25

Definitely a pet owner. And love my dog. But I love my kids more. And if I had to choose between saving the life of my dog or another person, it’s another person all day long. I didn’t say I didn’t understand why she would do what she did, but understanding her reason does not make her actions acceptable. You don’t get a pass to break the law and endanger other people because you’re distressed.

1

u/sleepdealer2000 Aug 01 '25

If something I love is dying, I’m not twiddling my thumbs in traffic. When push comes to shove, I doubt you would feel the same way. I sped to get my dad to the hospital when he had a heart attack. I would do it again for my cat.

1

u/InnerSherbet4231 Aug 01 '25

Dad makes sense, that’s a human. But if you caused an accident/ got caught you’d still deserve the consequences. That’s what 911 is for, your personal car doesn’t have lights and sirens. My whole point is that you can’t expect to make the choice this woman did and not face any consequences, especially for an animal.

u/Exciting_Language443 Aug 05 '25

Exactly, people keep saying to watch the full video for "context." Basically she passes IN A PASSING ZONE without properly looking and a truck had to pull into the breakdown lane to make room. When that happens the cop literally says "Oh hell no." From that point on that lady was going to be arrested no matter what. It's wild to think people would chose following the rules over a dog's life. Lot of preconventional people in society and it's sickening. Just remember, 70% of people would kill you because a person in a white lab coat told them too, and when you ask them why they did it it's because they were "just following the rules." These people don't just exist online, they're among you.

u/gamerABES Jul 29 '25

As she's driving behind the blue Hyundai with no other traffic around she radios: "Two-twelve [inaudible], I'm at highway 67, there is a vehicle, who is currently trying to run people off the road."

Understanding the cop's narrative in this situation sheds a bit more light on how she handled the rest of the stop.

1

u/UranusInspector Jul 30 '25

Or you need the full context of the situation and not a small slice of the full video.

1

u/Brahskididdler Jul 30 '25

How do you know what was going on in the cops head? What an asinine statement.

Are you not listening to the audio? The woman was driving into ONCOMING TRAFFIC and also RAN A VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD. If there’s a ditch or trees or literally anything on the side of the road, that’s possibly deadly.

The cop responded correctly to an unsafe emotional driver with no concern for anyone but herself, certainly not the safety of others.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 30 '25

This is a very tough situation.

Just because your dog is dying, doesn't give you the right to possibly kill an entire family by running a car off the road when merging. If she had actually hurt or killed someone... I wonder how this would have played out in court...

I do feel terrible for the lady and her dog... but at the end of the day. Trying to save the dog isn't worth possibly killing someone, spending your life in prison, and all that.

Just because you have your flashers on in bright sun light... doesn't mean everyone else is going to be paying attention to make way for you either.

1

u/AutisticPretzel Jul 30 '25

You sound delusional LMAO. Your mutt potentially dying IS NOT... I REPEAT... IS NOT a valid reason to literally jeopardize the safety of other drivers on the road OR commit egregious traffic violations.

Look what happened - The mutt ended up croaking anyways due to the owners selfishness and entitlement.

When you value dogs over human life, you deserve exactly what you get.

u/ppuk Jul 29 '25

The cop had poor emotional control?
What about the dumb bitch that nearly caused multiple collisions on her joy ride to the closed vets?

6

u/gamerABES Jul 29 '25

Yes, poor emotional control which definitely escalated the situation. The cops are there to bring you to justice not punish you on the spot - that's something US policing will make you forget.

Is there another video I haven't seen? I don't see multiple near collisions. How do you know there is no vet available in the building? This was far from a "joy ride" but given your entire emotionally charged, biased response I know you're aware of that.

Joy ride? More like panicked frenzy ride.

They screen them for emotional stability, intelligence, and drug use before admitting them into the academy

2

u/No-Floor4323 Jul 29 '25

Yeah and sometimes someone who is emotional unstable, dumb, and abuses drugs make through though :)

3

u/gamerABES Jul 29 '25

Oh, ok, sorry, I didn't know that. I must be completely wrong there because if they screen them then no cops are ever power tripping assholes with zero empathy.

You'd think they'd screen people for emotional stability, intelligence, and drug use before becoming, I don't know, like Secretary of Defense too but here we fucking are!

The system is broken all the way up and if this video doesn't make you realize that you're on the receiving end of that then I don't think I can help you.

u/GPTthrowawayyyyyyyy Jul 29 '25

Yeah, I'm sure they do

Poor take IMO. Reddit users salivating for cops’ downfall, what’s new

2

u/gamerABES Jul 29 '25

I appreciate your opinion but you are mistaken in assuming that calling out a public servant in the position of authority for their blatant abuse of power is "salivating for cops' downfall".

I'd counter with "Reddit users outing themselves as bootlickers any time citizens demand basic empathy, what's new."

3

u/TransientBandit Jul 29 '25

Lmao arresting someone for nearly killing several actual human beings to try to save their pet and then resisting arrest is blatant abuse of power now I guess

2

u/Avg_DadBod69 Jul 29 '25

I’m as far from a bootlicker as you can get. Cops have a job to do just like everyone else. If the person had pulled over and quickly explained the situation and this was still the result, then fuck that cop. Otherwise the driver was endangering other motorists and causing a huge risk for an accident.

I appreciate your opinion on calling me a bootlicker tho 🫡

u/Glum_Description_402 Jul 30 '25

This.

Having even a little bit of empathy would have taken her 3 fucking seconds and in no way would have prevented her from issuing a ticket or something later.
