Even in a situation where I think a cop’s actions are all justified they still show such a disturbing lack of humanity. Curious to hear if others feels the same

So here you’ve got a mom who is obviously panicking because she’s speeding to make sure the movers don’t drive off from her new house and now she’s also getting a speeding ticket. In the heat of the moment she makes a really stupid move and gets out the car to see if the movers are right there. She tells the officer give me a second, but of course no officer is going to do that and she gets placed in cuffs. No issue there she made a stupid move and that’s what happens.

But afterwards when you’ve got the lady under control, you hear her explanation for her actions and see all the evidence around you….just let it go. There’s a little girl watching her mother get attacked from her perspective. You don’t need to traumatize this kid any further. I agree with everything the mom says when she’s speaking to the other officer. Give her the speeding ticket, even give her another ticket for her stupid behavior, but you don’t have to go through with the arrest. He even refuses to let her call her husband when she’s asking and the other officer has to handle that.

This guy acts like he can’t even fathom why she would tell him I don’t want to get all the way in this car and leave my daughter all alone. All the comments on the video are noting but praising the cop, but again even though I don’t think his initial actions are wrong at all I still think you can have a fucking heart and take everything into consideration.
