Reading between the lines here, he may have assumed she was in a vulnerable position where she might not have reported a crime:
Police have released surveillance video that they believe shows the very beginning of the incident where the officer activates the lights on his police cruiser.
Stawinski says he released the video to assure the community that the officer could not have known the alleged victim’s immigration status before pulling her over.
