Louisville police have been highlighted numerous times on the crime show "The First 48". Wonder if Scottie will make the next episode?
***Scottie Scheffler Arrest Thread***
- Thread starter BigJCy
- Start date
The police are lucky this happened to Scottie, who is probably interested in getting past it. Somebody less established may be interested in suing the department.
Major entitlement move. Dragging a cop? He’s lucky he didn’t get shot. Can you imagine if that would have happened?
If he physically did that he’d catch a lot more charges.
‘Oh my God, it's Scottie Scheffler’: Eyewitness reveals new arrest details
When Scottie Scheffler was arrested outside the PGA Championship, ESPN’s Bob Wischusen was on the scene. Here’s what he saw and heard.golf.com
"Here’s how Wischusen recalls that moment: “When [Scheffler] drove past him, the cop got very angry pursuing the car. … My impression was he was kind of running alongside chasing the car, and maybe he tripped and fell. I mean, there was kind of an outcropping or medium, you know, by the front gate. And keep in mind, it was raining. It was 6 o’clock in the morning. It was dark.”
Asked about Darlington’s characterization of the officer “attaching” himself to the car, Wischusen said, “I could see him stumble, but I did not have a very clear view of exactly how you want to categorize his contact with the car.”
Wischusen said Scheffler was moving at a relatively slow speed — “the speed that you would drive a car if you were pulling up to the front gate of a place,” he said — and before pulling over had driven approximately the 10 or so yards that Darlington had estimated.
When Scheffler stopped the car, Wischusen said Gillis was visibly upset. “He runs up to the driver’s side, and with the butt end of his flashlight starts screaming, you know, ‘Get out of the car, get out of the car’ — banging on the window — ‘shut the engine off, get out of the car. I’m a police officer.’”"
Much as expected, if this is correct, the cop created a problem with his aggressiveness, did something stupid and injured himself, and then blamed it on Scottie.
Shocked that the “dragging” was just the cop being next to the car, and the 20 yards was really 10.
Super cop was embarrassed he tripped so he took it out on Scottie. Still. their conduct afterwards is much more troubling.
You belive the cop and not the multiple witnesses?
Have you read through any of this thread?
I swear people have no idea what happened and jump in here to make stupider and stupider comments as time goes on
A cop shoots Scheffler freakin Scheffler he’s going to have a lot bigger problems than replacing $80 pants
Its 2024. Nobody believes the word of a law enforcement officer who wasn't wearing a body cam. Especially when other eye witness accounts raise doubt on the validity of the officers word.
This is one of the stupidest post s I have ever seen on CF, if that cop had taken Scottie out he would never see freedom again. As it is, He should be out job hunting at a minimum!
Plus there is video, but the DA should have dismissed charges by now, allowing Louisville police to deal with the perpetrator of the actual stupidity, and him looking for a new job!
Edit: a return to see the derby was on our bucket list, it is a scratch!!!!

Remember at the county fair when the local vet had a free pass to get in, yet he politely pulled up and explained to the staff who he was and waited for the OK to pull through?
