      I live in a small town and theres 2 cops , young guys known to have tempers. About a yr or so ago they were accused of beating up an old man and the d.a. told them to delete pics. Ive seen their temper 1st hand , but ironically one of the guys wife allegedly hung herself. No signs of depression, nothing. He was already seeing another female. Zack Ferguson Lawrenceburg Tn. Wen they beat up the old man , it was a semi big ordeal , but NO ,NONE , ZIP ,NADDA , no local media covered it.

      She may have been knocked out - probably was. She was in cuffs for a reason, if you don't break the law you won't be in cuffs in the back of a police cruiser unable to open the back doors... My husband has been a LEO for almost 40 years and one of my sons is now a LEO as well, it's the officer I feel for. The woman I feel bad for, but she put herself in that situation in that car - the officer was doing his job and probably distracted by her screaming and kicking the window, threatening to pee on the seat, etc. It's what they do trying to get a reaction from the officer...her actions could have led to her own death. Not saying that to be mean, but it is an honest possibility and she took the deputy with her.
      It's not hard to obey the law. Most of us do it every day. When you break the law and are arrested, your life is no longer yours until you're released... She had rights, but so did the deputy to go home at the end of his shift. If she caused this because of her own actions in the police car, it's just really sad for the officer and his family.

      ​@@everythinghomestead9222 That's a disgusting comment. He's the one who put her in a watery grave goofball. The angle of the ramp, rumble strips, and reports of him texting make it a negligent homicide at best.

      So is his 'texting while driving'. No one said he did that, all they said was his wife received a text. And if you follow the timeline, that was before he called into dispatch that he was bringing in a woman he arrested. So who's the goofball for not being able to follow a timeline?
      Everyone involved has stated that area is confusing and dangerous - and a week prior a woman accidently drove into the river from the boatramp.
      People are so quick to jump on a cop when reality is - he was brand new to this area, that is a very well known dangerous area, a week prior someone had driven into the river, and if he had been distracted by a crazy drugged out woman in the back (one witnesses said was walking into traffic and doing other things pointing to drugs or alcohol - he probably arrested her because of intoxication and to keep her safe) then he was doing everything right and her causing distractions added to this horrible accident.

So he was unfamiliar with the area. They believe he took a wrong turn. He leaves behind a wife and 5 children. The woman leaves behind a husband and 2 young children. Of course deputies speed.

      @@signwatcher007 In no way was this a simple accident. Ths was negligent, probably manslaughter at the least had he survived.
      This cop was was texting while driving. And not texting about anything important, just telling his wife that he made an arrest. You know, truly time-critical info that just had to be sent while driving.
      There are stop signs on both sides of the road around 150 feet from the water. Additionally, there are "stop ahead" signs around 575 feet before the water, around 400 feet before the stop signs. Also, there are rumble strips along the road that should catch the attention of even a half-intelligent driver.
      NONE of these things work when a cop is involved, though. Cops don't like to be told to do things like "stop ahead," or "stop," or wonder why there are rumble strips on the road. They are cops, and here's the deal: the road and road signs do what the cops say. The road and signs don't get to tell the cops what to do. And if they try to dicatate the situation to the cop, its gonna be real bad for the road and signs. It can go one of two ways, and the road and signs better obey the cops, or else it's gonna be real bad for them! Did that road and signs even go to law school?? Who are they to try and order a cop around?? Do they know a cop's job better than the cop does?? Heck no!
      This cop was negligent and breaking the law, and he is the direct cause of a woman's death.
      Take special note that her car door wasn't open: his first action wasn't to exit his vehicle and open her door. His first action when he negligently drove into a river with a handcuffed human being in the back of his car that had zero chance of helping herself wasn't to open her door, or the door would have been opened. It was to save himself.
      NOT an accident. At all.

Texas cops can arrest you and take you to jail and book you and fingerprint you and photograph you and make you wait until you can see a magistrate even if it'll take several days ----- for something as minor as turning your blinker on 5 feet too late, or crossing the stop line at a stop sign by an inch.

Eliminating alot of other factors. Obstacles obstruction/ snags. Which ill say it, isnt their fault.

      Did you not listen to the whole briefing? It was NOT his first arrest and they stated that several times. They also stated that there were multiple possibilities, including the woman in the back causing a distraction (which they always do) and using his radio, yes he sent a text but they have no idea at what point - it could have been before he started driving for all anyone knows. Everyone wants to jump on how horrible this officer was when in fact, this was a bad accident and the woman could have even caused it screaming, kicking the windows, threatening to pee on the seat, etc. My husband is a 40 year LEO and my son is also a LEO. Until you've lived it, stop blaming cops for everything. God help us if all the cops suddenly decided not to go to work anymore - then you would be upset because no one would be there when you needed help... No one wins in this situation, but stop automatically blaming the officer, no one knows what happened. And they have not stated he was texting and driving, just that his wife received a text at some point.

      Cops today do not deserve Gods blessings! They have made it clear they are not For We the People! This cop is evidence once again of it. Had he not felt he was above the law he would not have been driving and texting most likely at a high rate of speed. There are no skid marks indicating he tried to stop and it's quite obvious you should according to the signs posted and the rumble strips in the rd to indicate danger ahead! The PD that hired this incompetent man to be a cop should be held responsible to the fullest extent!!

      No - he sent a text, no one said he was driving. He could have sent the text prior to driving away from the scene of the arrest. No one knows when the text went out and when the accident happened. Distraction from the woman is probably what caused this. Haven't you see cop videos where the arrested person is put in the back of the police car and they scream, kick the windows, puke, poop, pee and constantly try to distract the officer? If she was doing that and he was in an unfamiliar place at night - very likely he didn't know where he was and ended up on the boat ramp.
      NO ONE said he was texting AND driving, just that during the timeline of all this, his wife received a text. Then later, he called in on the radio 'water'.

      Were you? My husband has been a LEO for 40 years, my son is also a LEO. I know the reality of what happens on calls, have you ever beein a cop car other than in the back? Have you been on ride alongs? Witnesses AT THE SCENE of this officer arresting this woman stated she was walking in and out of traffic and wasn't acting normal - drugs, alcohol, mental health issues or whatever...get her in the back of a cop car and they usually explode back there. Her distraction could have easily led to her death and the officer's death. I'm a former ER nurse, did plenty of pre-books, and if she was impaired in some way she would have been evaluated. I've see all this in person.
      The fact that he was in a well known dangerous area, one he was not familiar with at all, at night, with a woman in the back who witnesses said had strange behavior and was impaired in some way....yeah, doesn't take many brain cells to realize he was probably distracted, not sure where he was, and trying to get back to the station quickly. The week prior a woman drove into the river off the same boat ramp - even with all the things you listed - apparently that is not uncommon at that location.
      You see what you want to see, what the media always portrays - that cops are evil people. They aren't. They are doing a job no one else wants to do. God forgive us is police walk away and leave us all at the mercy of the criminals and crazies out there... Cops handle situations no one would ever want to be in. And when something goes wrong, everyone blames the cop and calls them murderers, etc.
      Think first, get the facts, wait for more answers before condemning someone when you weren't even there. Otherwise you're part of the problem.

      Wrong. Morals, critical thinking, understanding right from wrong, and having the strength to choose what's right are MUCH more important than "believing" in God or some other moral mirage. So many Americans love to claim allegiance to God (especially the ignorant, anti-American Southern trump-voting trash), many for the sole purpose that it makes them look good to others, and allows them to justify their antisocial, abhorrent behavior. Atheists have been consistently proven to be more honest and moral than anyone who claims a religious faith. But I understand if you don't believe that, because it's only something that is "a fact" and was learned by using something called "science," which people who cling to religion have increasingly decided are not as real as their opinions and feelings.
