Lucky for you white trash apartment complexes are seemingly everywhere.
I always knew someone would pick up the slack when they're dumped by their exes.
Didn't know it was you OwlFan. Not all heros wear capes amirite.

The cop is a first class prick.

First, he was clearly impatient from the jump and powertripping, which led to his incompetent handling of the matter, which led to the injury. Based on the little info he bothered to glean, he should have asked more questions to get a fuller picture of the situation at which point he have very much likely found that it was merely a misunderstanding by the neighbors. But instead he made his mind up prematurely.
You must have watched a different video than the one I saw because he asked her lots of questions. She wouldn’t answer, wouldn’t give her name, became aggravated she was being questioned, etc. she fell and busted her nose cause she was drunk and stupid. Cop did nothing wrong

I hate she got her face busted up but she made the decisions that led to it.
These same posters who are complaining about the LEO's actions would be criticizing him for failure to act if he let someone, who is obviously trashed, walk down the steps where she fell, walked in front of a vehicle or got away with damaging his truck.
No win with some folks.

There's more required of a police officer than a question/answer session with a suspect. Other surrounding circumstances, intuition, experience etc. Like I said before, it should have easily been a red flag that she was sitting at the doorstep waiting for the person whom she was supposed to have attempted to burglarize. Highly unusual.
And especially in the case of ex-spouses and the sometimes tricky issues of what property legally belongs to whom, and who has legal right to what....again, more reason for pause. Cops are always sensitive to those situations bc there potentially are civil court implications.
Add to it the fact that a case of ex-spouse burglary is very rare. The cop had a multitude of reasons to make the correct decision that it didnt add up, a burglary that is. And had he made that correct conclusion he'd have likely told the girl so long, stay put and dont act up before any of the subsequent stuff occurred.
So many reasons to doubt seriously question burglary. She was ultimately not charged with burglary btw.

I cant imagine any sane person believing a highly drunk person should be incarcerated for their own safety.

That woman had brain damage prior to this incident, like all women seem to when they get too drunk and mad.

You also can’t just walk away and leave when being questioned about a crime

Oh yeah, because people in her condition ALWAYS do just as instructed.
I'm not sure if you've never been drunk or somehow never seen a drunk.

It’s a real shame how polarizing the two sides are in viewing this. Clearly the cop understands the situation but HAS to ask questions and verify the answers before leaving the seen. It’s unfortunate the lady allowed herself to become so intoxicated that she refused to be cooperative. In this situation, she simply needed to answer his questions and most likely there would have had a better outcome for her. (Provided Nick didn’t want them to take her)
Really really sad that some portion of our public wants to make the LEO’s jobs as difficult as possible.
Obviously there are other outcomes, cop could have done something different, this doesn’t mean he did some wrong and she deserves payment. Total bullshite. She could have done things different.... not gotten arrested, not ruined her daughters birthday, not deteriorated her relationship with her boyfriend, not caused herself to get arrested!!
I get it, shite happens, but there are consequences for your actions. These were the consequences for HER actions. She caused this. I’m not saying she deserved it, but It’s the result of HER actions.

I wasnt really proposing exact parting words....insert anything else that accomplishes "Im done here, goodbye."

How about the safety of others? He knew she had a vehicle there. What if after scolding her, giving her those instructions, waiting a few minutes to see if she complied, he leaves.
She gets in her vehicle, even WITH a flat tire and drives off. Has a wreck and kills someone.
You ok with that too?
Not to mention, you don't think he was able to intuit a possible domestic situation? Drunk ex., waiting at a place she couldn't get in, child involved, etc?

I don't automatically hate police, but the cop instigated her into that situation. In his eyes she was guilty and he wasn't having it any other way. This is what we get when you put low iq low paid people in positions of power.

That is absolutely correct. And she wouldnt have been able to use for the charge of resisting arrest a defense of "shouldn't have been in the situation to begin with." She hooked herself on that one.
The civil case on the other hand, lesser standard of proof as well as, basically, "but for the erroneous arrest plaintiff would not have suffered injury".

Look, this isnt a case of being loose with standards or dislike of LEO. Ive worked in law enforcement. Currently on the other side of it, but I fraternize with cops nearly daily. And they too get upset at incidents of avoidable bad press because it can lend to that vein of distrust by some citizens. Maybe making their job just a tad bit more unsafe.
As for the drunk issue. I understand your point, but I just dont think that's how it works. Then they'd be coming into bars arresting overly imbibed people assuming anyone probably has access to a vehicle somewhere. Or for the potential of drunkenly wandering out into the street.

Back in the old days, about three years ago, she would have fallen down those stairs for sure.
