Look what we have here! It’s a person in power trying to use their position to get out of a little ticket from the police and she’s caught on camera doing it. This is Monroe County District Attorney Sandra Doorley and she drove away from the police who tried to pull her over for speeding. She kept going instead of pulling over, then called the police chief and tried to get them to leave her alone.
Nope. Didn’t work. And good thing there’s a police body cam video showing it happen. Apparently Doorley drove home and the police followed her. She became beligerant towards the police and asked them to call the chief. She possibly admitted to what she was doing as well. There’s really no way for the officer to know who she is without running her license plate, so to him, it was just someone speeding and he was trying to do his job and pull them over. The problem began with Doorley. The news report on Doorley said:
Doorley does not give the officer her ID. Instead she gives him her phone, says Dennis Kohlmeier is on the line, and once again walks into the garage, eventually going all the way into her house.
“I understand the law better than you,” she tells the officer as he tries to get her back outside. She continues to refuse to leave the garage, at one point returning to her car to get her badge to show the officer.
“I just don’t understand the hostility toward me,” the officer says. “I’m doing my job.”
“No, you’re being an [expletive],” Doorley says.
“How am I being an [expletive],” the officer says.
“I am the DA of Monroe County,” Doorley says.
“I understand that, but that doesn’t give you a right to go 55 in a 35,” the officer says.
“I don’t really care,” Doorley says. “I don’t really care. You know what? If you give me a traffic ticket that’s fine. I’m the one who prosecutes it.”
More cops came. A supervisor showed up. Doorley stayed in her garage refusing to cooperate. She even suggested that she would be the one prosecuting herself and she’d probably get rid of the ticket. It’s believed she may have pled guilty and sent the ticket in. She’s now claiming that she did not try to use her position to get out of the ticket, but the video likely says otherwise. Doorley said: “I believe in accepting responsibility for my actions and had no intention of using my position to receive a benefit.”
That’s nice and all, but she wasted everyone’s time and resources for all the people who showed up to deal with her nonsense. Everyone has bad days, but don’t take them out on the police. Be nice and respectful to them, you’ll get the same treatment back. I think the cops would have let her slide on the ticket if she didn’t make a huge fuss about it. Just ask for a warning. A lot of times they will reduce the ticket or give you the warning. Just gotta ask.
