He would have won. Pretty easily.

But not litigating it was key to an immediate release and dropped charges.

because police have been notoriously susceptible to punishment on the United States?

you think he would have won. you home me would have won. i do, too.

none of us know for sure. police are often given a long, LONG leash when they are “discharging their duties,” legitimately or not.

@Nyle
He’s a real asshole, but cops get a lot more protection than could be overcome by this specific case.

Be mad at the system, not me.

Good point.

@Brooke
for you and i but not someone worth 100 million dollars the best legal
minds money can buy and videos and witnesses . most cops
are good but when you get jealous people
in places of authority thst when things can happen

@Ash
> most cops are good but when you get jealous people in places of authority thst when things can happen

lol, yes that’s why police brutality occurs almost exclusively with rich, white victims, with definitely no overrepresention of minorities or low SES populations.

@Brooke
i don’t think it makes a difference . if your area to patrol is mostly white, then it will be white victims if areas of most black then those are the victims . this was outside a golf venue and investigating a vehicle homicide

@Ash
if your theory was true, it wouldn’t matter what area people patrolled. the cops parking the rich white area would get jealous frequently and be brutalizing all the time. the cops patrolling the poor neighborhoods would basically never get jealous and never brutalize anybody.

and yet…

@Brooke
not all the time , just they snap
sometimes cause of any reason . it’s like parents you can love your kids but end up getting mad or punishing them
for basically nothing . except most apologize when wrong cops
usually don’t

here is a stay but more serious than what we describe

@Brooke
Also as a public figure with a brand to uphold, moving past it quickly is the best way to go. Even though the arrest was bogus, having your name associated with an arrest for years on end is a bad thing.

@Brooke
Sometimes it’s just not worth it even though you’re in the right. He has nothing to gain really.

Ash said:
good the cop there should have been fired . scottie was too nice and let it slide .

Not really. Scotty got off because he’s a rich celebrity.

It’s crazy how much misinformation gets pushed about this arrest

@Paden
the mayor and chief of police let him out and dropped charges cause they knew a shit storm was coming . scottie just wanted to move away from in all

there were witnesses who said one thing and the police said something. else but they never released the body cam

@Ash
Your first sentence kind of proves the point they made. Would a random person getting arrested result in this shitstorm? Nah

@Ash
Oh for sure, that’s exactly why the charges were dropped.

It wasn’t because Scotty didn’t do anything wrong like this sub tries to push

Is this the account of a guy with a tiny dick and $70 pants?

@Morgan
The eye witness testimony of people that saw it.

Including the ESPN reporter that took the initial pictures, and then did the interview moments later live.

But yeah Scottie good, cops bad, man with tiny dick, reddit stuff

@Paden
There’s a video of the whole thing dumbass. Scottie literally did nothing wrong. I’m honestly really embarrassed for you because almost everyone in this sub has seen the video and you’re so confidently wrong.

@Clancy
Yeah the video backs up eye witness testimony, and the part you’re saying didn’t happen was blocked by a bus on the video you’re mentioning.

What was that about confidently wrong? Dumbass :joy:

Ok bud. Everyone saw the same video and you’re the only one who came this conclusion.

If real life was madden your awareness would be a 23.
