OK, I think you might be right about the jailbird being the one who prodded Samantha to go, go, go! That makes sense. However it is still unclear whether the cop jumped on the car or not. If he jumped on the car from the side, then he put himself in danger. I still don't like trigger happy cops regardless of whatever happened here. Since your such a detective, why don't you dig up the reason Brockman was injured/hospitalized twice while trying to get into Officer Candidate School. That is important to the whole case. I haven't been able to find anything. Dig up the dirt on this guy!
So now you're taking my words out of context? I was directing the above to you and others, who are attacking Samantha.
I meant those who are defending the killer cop are just attacking the poor deceased girl! You're ignoring all the relevant details and searching for grammar mistakes in my writing. Such desperation? The "lost" heroin means nothing to you?
Sorry if you felt that "cop lover" is an insult. That's really mild as compared to what you've thrown my way. However I let it all roll off my back with a good laugh. So let's not be hypocritical OK?
As for coroners and their reputation. Please don't lecture me about their holiness. It might lead me to point out a rather infamous coroner from the north-east. I don't want to be led into a trap. Nice try though. You do know who I'm talking about? So save your coroner loving stories for somebody else, I'm not buying it. They rate as low as cops in my book.
The cops probably found a spent round in the back seat, and brought it by the coroners office and requested it be listed as extracted from Samantha. That way the cops could head off a reckless endangerment lawsuit from the passengers. Coroner said, "OK Billy-Bob, just leave it there on my table." We're talking about rural gangsters here. Killing and lying is what they do.
the bottom line is the cop and the woman driving were both in the wrong.
the latter however did not deserve an on the spot death penalty with a car full of passengers.
Bashing a dead 19 year old girl is the echelon of class.? Excuse me?>??
However it is not at all relevant to the topic of discussion, and quite frankly the fact that you continue to bring up unrelated issues to support your stance, in addition to your pathetic attempts at insulting me by insisting that I am a "cop lover" (whatever the hell that is supposed to mean), only highlights how far you are having to reach to try and validate your beliefs and serves to make you look like a desperate, ignorant bully.

If you meant the "cop lover" comment as an insult I am sorry to disappoint you, but as I previously stated, all that did was make me laugh at how far off base you are with that accusation.
A dispute over a horse could be the reason behind a deadly shooting in Nicholas County involving a sheriff's deputy. Scotty Hill, a five-year veteran with the Boone sheriff's department, shot Brenda May Pollitt on her property in rural Nicholas County after she threatened him with a pistol, according to Kentucky State Police. Pollitt, 55, was pronounced dead at the scene at 2630 Headquarters Road, according to a state police press release. The shooting occurred a little before 11:45 p.m. Monday.

So now you're a head shrinker too? Using reverse psychology on me? How dare you! I'm sorry to have to correct you again, but you say so many contradictory things. For example see exhibit 1 below.

So you took "cop lover" as an insult I surmise? I meant it merely as stating a fact.
Yet in your latest rant you claim something completely different.

The only reverse psychology I see coming from you is your claimed dislike of cops. You actually like them, a lot! Not just cops, coroners too. I got you your steak, I hope you don't choke on it. Really be careful ...

Pollitt, 55, was pronounced dead at the scene at 2630 Headquarters Road, according to a state police press release.
It appears that Hill, along with his wife and daughter, went to the farm to buy a horse, Nicholas County Sheriff Dick Garrett said. Pollitt's nephew was selling the horse, he said.
After questioning people on Tuesday, state police said Pollitt was evicting her nephew from her house and had given him until midnight to remove his property including a horse.
Hill came to the farm to take the horse and it was loaded into a trailer. For some unknown reason, Pollitt produced a pistol and then ordered the men to unload the horse from the trailer, Detective Sgt. Jeremy Murrell said[/color].
No charges were filed against Hill. State police will present their investigation to the Nicholas County commonwealth's attorney who will present the case to a grand jury, Murrell said.
so again stop being obsessed with other points and try to stick to the topic of Ramsey and Brockman.
and the hate is gonna burn you up inside.
A Nicholas County woman killed Monday on her farm by an off-duty Boone County sheriff's deputy was shot multiple times, including twice in the back, according to the Nicholas County coroner. Coroner Billy Clark said Friday that Brenda May Pollitt, 55, was shot five times from 6 to 8 feet away by a .40-caliber police weapon. Two entry wounds were in Pollitt's back, Clark said. Kentucky State Police said sheriff's deputy Scotty Hill, 36, fired after Pollitt threatened him with a pistol. Clark said that he could not confirm Pollitt had a gun.

I agree, 100%. She deserved to go to jail and have her driving privileges revoked.

He/she/it reminds me of a little kid throwing tantrums because he/she/it isn't getting what he wants. But it is obvious that blind hatred and lack of any actual knowledge or insight into what he/she/it is spouting off about are teaming up to invalidate every single word he/she/it types.
Really, having said that I probably should leave the poor creature alone before he/she/it gives himself/herself/itself a stroke over it. Sometimes I allow my intense dislike of bullies, especially largely uneducated ones such as him/her/it who are under the mistaken impression that they are clever, to cloud my judgement. So I'm going to refrain from engaging in any more exchanges on whatever this topic is about now that he/she/it has so diligently derailed it, and replied to me in a very threatening manner, wishing me to choke on my food, of all bizarre things. The blind, unmitigated hatred from him/her/it is practically dripping down the screen. If he/she/it were not so pathetic and silly, that might have alarmed me a little bit.
There are lots of bad cops out there...in fact, I would venture to say more bad are out there than good these days. But this anti-law enforcement bandwagon everyone keeps jumping on is a disaster waiting to happen. People such as Mikeultra, who spout rhetoric and mindless blanket observations and then throw themselves a little hissy fit (as my Granny would say) when others don't agree with them are the real danger to our society. They rely on force and bullying rather than reason and rational assessment of the situation, have no regard whatsoever for actual facts, and are nothing more than blind followers of someone else's overblown belief system, because they lack the wherewithal to stand on their own. And they do all of this in the name of "justice" and "fairness". If he had let her go and she had wrecked and killed not only herself, but the passengers in her car and whomever else she collided with, the same people would be screaming in righteous indignation that the officer didn't do his job. It doesn't really matter about this woman's life...as long as the cop takes the blame, they're practically willing to canonize her into sainthood.
This little cyber-lynch mob is ready to string up every single cop out there, yet are screaming at their perceived "injustice" that a woman who blatantly broke the law and endangered lives other than her own met with a tragic fate that she herself was the catalyst for. They will never see the entire truth of a situation because they don't have any desire to know the truth. Blame the government, blame the police. The court system too, why not...and throw the coroner's office in there too...of course they falsify evidence, I mean why not right? It's only a decade of school, years of residency and a medical doctorate and license to practice they'd be throwing away to do so, right? Because that is so much easier to believe than the truth, which is this woman was nowhere near "innocent", and was complicit in her own death the second she refused to stop that car...whether she was sober or not.
There is a disturbing idea that occurred to me when you posted the information about the people in her car though, and I really hope it's not true, but we know from the OP that she had a male in there who was wanted by the police. It would be really awful to discover that the reason she tried to flee was either on his behalf or because he convinced her to do it. After all, she's dead and can't tell anyone what happened and the passengers' stories do not match each other or the evidence recovered from the scene. If that was the case, it makes the whole thing even more tragic, because he walked away unscathed...and obviously she did not walk away at all.
The officer had every right to pull her over if he believed she was impaired and administer a BAT. Had she passed that, she would have been sent on her way...and the only reason someone would try to flee in a situation like that is that they were guilty of something. She would be alive and most likely in jail right now if she had not made that decision. No amount of trying to paint her as a blameless victim is ever going to change that. It is sad, yes, and tragic. But they were both at fault...and here's one that these schoolyard bully types will appreciate: She started it.
was shot five times from 6 to 8 feet ... Two entry wounds were in Pollitt's back...
