The bodycam video is out now.
Looks like the woman in the video committed the heinous crime of “not respecting authoritah”.
FTA:
Police officers asked Weinman to breathe into a breath analysis device after they found alcohol near her beach blankets. She apparently passed the test and said the booze belonged to her aunt. Weinman was apprehended after she refused to provide her last name to the officers.
“You thought we were drinking so now you’re mad because your Breathalyzer came up negative,” Weinman told the two cops as they attempted to write her a ticket. “You don’t need my last name.”
“OK, that’s it ― I’m done with you,” one police officer can be heard saying in the video before asking his partner for handcuffs.
“You’re about to get dropped,” the officer tells Weinman when she walks away and tells him to leave her alone.
Weinman puts her hands up and moves forward as the cop approaches her, but it’s unclear from the video who initiates the contact. The video cuts out momentarily, then shows Weinman screaming as the police officer pulls her to the ground and grabs her hair.
