One common denominator in all this is people flailing and acting erratic.  Do the cops have the right to do what they did?  No.  Did you get what was coming to you by acting an ass?  Yes.  

Pro Tip:  Comply now, sue later.

it seems far more likely the cop is lying to protect himself than these people lying for some other reason to me. But I would be pissed if some vacation spot cop decided to make an example of me on my vacation too.

I GUARANTEE they are lying.  100%

Oh, pardon me if I have little pity that their $1,000 a day vacation was interrupted because she was being irresponsible, hysterical, and drunk.

"Dude... dude... dude... dude..."

Were the cops likely too aggressive? Yes, because the sky is usually blue... but I am pretty sure neither side is being 100% truthful here...

I saw all this to do, but wasn't this incident like 2 years ago?

 

Bronn is right...  the cops were probably over aggressive (surprise) and the family was probably not coming clean on their behavior either, but who knows...?

 

Literally the first thing like this I've ever heard of on Bald Head.

North Carolina’s Cape Fear Coast is one of my favorite places in the country. The sand dunes, Spanish moss and the smell of saltwater in the air are just a few of the things I miss when I’m not there vacationing with my family.

A few years ago, I learned of a modern-day mystery — the disturbing events surrounding the death of Bald Head Island Police Officer Davina “Dee” Buff Jones. It left me questioning whether I wanted to return.

2 quick thoughts,

1, Nice that the video starts right as they started to arrest her, not showing anything that happened before hand. considering how much she's screaming and resisting the officers I'm more then willing to side with the officers that she was drinking/intoxicated. if she was sober and explained herself peacefully she's getting a warning or a citation, not getting arrested. believe it or not but even police officers working a kush resort jobs have better things to do than arresting Soccer moms.

2, If she was intoxicated and let her child drive(doesnt have to be above .08), it's considered reckless child endangerment. And could also be interpreted as child abuse, they were well within their rights to arrest her, also the police cannot always know how far she was driving, they can only account for what they observe, so if they see drunk mom letting her kid drive her home, they have to assume that is what is going on.

PDs better cut this crap out or they are going to be a goldmine for lawsuits. The day has passed when they could abuse power without impunity. 

not disagreeing with that

but we also now live in a world where people have little respect for authority and think virtually nothing applies to them and that they should be able to get out of anything.  Based on the video alone, I would be willing to bet the woman was far from innocent in her initial act and more important how she reacted to the officers.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
