The guy was doing 120. He was in the wrong, she was doing her job. The guy should be thrown off the force, and she should win her lawsuit.

Did she radio in and ask why a squad car was going at that speed? She could have deflected the personal responsibility by doing so, how did she know he wasn't on legit business? Makes a difference. Does everyone who gets pulled for speeding get handcuffed these days? The article says the man was apologetic and admitted fault. She sounds, and looks, like a militant unforgiving and inflexible dyke, and you guys are advocating her and her slimy lawyer sucking up half a million or more of taxpayer money.

Try to imagine what this conversation would be like if the speeding cop had lost control at 120 mph and hit a minivan with a family in it. Imaging the justifiable outrage of everyone on this board over a "rogue cop" killing a bunch of kids because he was last for his second job.
And she is not getting the $500K because she pulled over a cop.
She is getting the $500K because - apparently - many dozens of cops accessed her private records so they could heap abuse on her.
I hope every cop that snooped her records gets fined.
