Scottie Scheffler thrown in cuffs on his way to PGA Round 2
- Thread starter Funky Bunch
- Start date
Scotty should play Sunday’s round in his orange jumpsuit, aka Ricky Fowler with the orange Puma hat…
I know this will surprise many, but the mayor just said that the body cam was not activated.
Link? Not saying you're wrong, but all I've seen so far is that there simply isn't any footage. As in the cop likely didn't have one at all. And he's a detective, so was he even in an identifiable police uniform during this or was he in street clothes? Could be another interesting wrinkle here. World's #1 has a random person run at his car like a crazed fan...
They've just released new footage of Scottie on his way to the course yesterday, and it does appear that the arresting officer was in fact in plain clothes at the time of the incident:

“The officer did not have bodycam footage turned on during the incident. We will release the footage that we have," said Greenberg in a report from Louisville TV station WDRB. "We did not have any … to my knowledge. We have not discovered any video of the initial contact between officer Gillis and Mr. Scheffler."
Geezus , they spend a major fortune on body cams, probably enough to get at least a few dozen families out of a bad neighborhood, yet, in a situation where it seems it would be most appropriate to have them on (traffic control of a fatality in bad conditions), arresting a celebrity…. Yet they did not press the on button. 🤦
I admit I'm an asshole but I would still sue both LPD and the detective who wouldn't let it go.
'Greenberg said he wasn’t certain that Gillis was wearing a body camera but there is footage from a fixed camera across the street from where Scheffler was arrested. The mayor said that footage will be released in the future, per WDRB.'
The best thing the LPD could do right now is STFU and let this fade away.
Scottie's arraignment has been rescheduled from 5/21 to 6/3. Reason is his attorney has a scheduling conflict. The County prosecutor objected to the delay.
I find the objection to the delay kind of curious. Seems like the prosecutor either wanted to get it over with tomorrow, or they want to double down. Under the circumstances, I'd think they would want to try to get back in the good graces of most of the public.

Courtroom video shows Louisville prosecutor pushing against delay of Scottie Scheffler arraignment
The Jefferson County Attorney’s Office still has yet to make any decisions regarding his case.
This is why they wanted it over already. They don’t want the real story out there. How the AG hasn’t dropped this yet is a mystery.
Better angle. Holy chit. Between the prosecutor and false charges of dragging an officer, the PGA should go public they will never hold event in Kentucky until the LPD is completely overhauled. If I was Governor I would be using everything I had to drop this. Prosecutor would be done.
Louisville officer disciplined for not activating camera.

Agreed....where in that video is the officer "dragged" 10 feet or whatever.....and where does he sustain bad enough injuries he had to go to the hospital? What a joke.
Prosecutor is arguing something not even in response to the motion for continuance, and is even arguing that the commonwealth needs more time. The judge understands. The prosecutor is trying to make it like Scottie wants special treatment.Courtroom video shows Louisville prosecutor pushing against delay of Scottie Scheffler arraignment

I think I've seen that officer before - pretty sure he's the guy eyeing Afroman's dessert in the "Lemon Pound Cake" video from when they raided his house.
Was the dragging for 80 feet later or is that subject to the definition of “dragging” and “80 feet”.
Cop should be fired if there isn’t more than that. Looks like purge rage waiting to happen to a citizen.

Lol! Looks like the detective gave a good whack to the vehicle with his flashlight as he waddled up to it. That’s probably when he hurt his hand. I saw no dragging or falling down of the officer. Hmm.
How can a police chief or a prosecutor look at that video and believe those charges should continue? There has to be more that we arent seeing right? Where was the dragging and injury to the officer?

I for one cannot believe an over exuberant cop lied!
