back in 2011 a florida Highway Patrol trooper by the Madonna Jane walks
%uh stop AP speeding driver who was going 120 miles per hour
well she was really surprised to find that that person in the vehicle was so
many move
boss told Lopez buffalo has actually a police officer with
the Miami Police Department so she arrested him and the video footage
was awesome take a look think draw line and commands
firing thought at the HP trooper pulls over a Miami police officer
them 1st SEM Cox a.m.
and courts him to her cruiser tho and during all of this
the Miami officers sounds just as shocked as she
is mad home I growing I cannot believe this I cannot believe me and/or
it began unbelievably just minutes before with his police cruiser seen here
passing by the trooper like she's standing still
fire play she chases him lights flashing
engines creamy on as she describes him we need
in and out of lanes speeding up and slowing down at speeds topping up 120
miles an hour
until both finally come to attend stop 4 minutes 57 seconds later
them but I would not mess with her
okay he's not playing man yeah not so foster
hope how to end on a bad looking guy
anywhere you look up okay so Louis
at first she doesn't know if it's a copper not shadows acknowledging the
whole the cop car right right so so she pulled them over Shishir I
you know takes is bad not take batch that leapt to his
I him losing his job right so as you guys know usually cops look out for one
another
but in this case that did not happen it made national headlines he lost his job
and other members of law enforcement there were really upset about it so
the harassment begins and people start harassing
the the for the trooper random telephone calls on your cell phone
some were threatened summer prank calls including orders for pizza unfamiliar
bill unfamiliar vehicles and police cars at idling
in her call the sock she was afraid to open her mailbox a number of certain
things were happening to her so she was really worried about it
and make you realize hey you know what I get the sense
that cops are checking in on my driver's license information you know they can
pull up that information because they're cops that's why they know where she
lives
for my local art house will feel that way I gather you're paranoid rather
people are going to check in on you and then nope it all works in mysterious
cars in my call the sack
in this case not so much yeah
so she I decided to take a look and she realize that in a three-month period
88 law enforcement officers from 25 different agencies accessed
%uh her driver's license information more than two hundred times
turns out she was totally right she was right to be paranoid
it seems like half the cops in South Florida we're checking out
where she lives and obviously some of them were totally harassing
now in 1994 there was a law passed a federal law passed it's known as the
federal driver Privacy Protection Act
and it prevents up call for anyone looking up your private information
when there's absolutely no need to do so in this case there is no need to do so
other than to try to harass or right
are if you are caught breaking this log you can be fined
twenty-five hundred dollars now she is suing
using that law as a reason to sue and if she wins she can receive up to five
hundred thousand dollars
totally you agree with her okay now this people now of course the
the defending his lawyers defending the other side
the same the government and say hey wait a minute this is like if you look up
a summary driver license for profit it's a
Naruto it but it doesn't say that on the law doesn't say only for profit like for
example if you look at the driver's license to harass them at their house
yeah that's exactly without law should cover so she deserves a pilot to those
laws
look if you have a TA cops looking to harass you ever threaten you
know if a man that would be a good reason to sue the government even if
you're a cop
hell yeah now the Department of Justice is actually chimed in on this and they
said no no no no that defense is ridiculous
on this law would protect her so she is going to
go ahead and file suit and I'm I'm glad she's doing it i mean it's absolutely
ridiculous that they
use those resources just to go after it harasser and by the way
nor should be driving a 120 miles per hour on the highway that so unbelievably
unsafe
and I love that she actually did her job she didn't look out for him because he's
a cop
and she did what she needed to do a better way to say that it was speeding
because he was running late for his off-duty job
get the world worst excuse I would never look back ha point today
if there were just a regular person going 120 miles per hour and use that as
an excuse would not be acceptable
now look I'll organizations courageous NB
I she doesn't love those bullshit ruled the cops are allowed the break
every law there is you're not allowed to break it she actually Bassem on its
great
and by the way so what's happened to her I she's been
reassigned to road patrol in Broward County is that a dade county
she's been relocated and is no longer driving a cruiser
so she's the worst the Highway Patrol and they say she's fine overall
but they did take a job she was obviously doing well
the way for power yeah and so does she deserve the money for all the harassment
absolutely so you go you're 90 the rest like observer
Foster and furious over this but they're wrong
issues right
