@Grok

The woman was arrested in Hope, Arkansas, after a high-speed chase for reckless driving while rushing her dying dog to the vet. Officer Holly Romero handcuffed her despite pleas, and the dog died, likely due to the delay. She faces charges of felony fleeing, resisting arrest, failure to yield, and improper passing. No further updates on the case as of now.

This is the moment an Arkansas state trooper arrested a woman who ignored a red light as she rushed her dying dog to the vet.
The unnamed woman’s dog had reportedly been hit by a car on July 14. In dashcam footage from Trooper Holly Romero, the woman can be seen speeding through an intersection.
The trooper pursued the vehicle along the highway until they stopped in front of a veterinarian’s office.
Romero struggles to arrest the woman while she explains the perilous state of her canine.
“You’re going to cut off traffic because your dog is dying?” Romero asks as she cuffs the woman.
The video has since gone viral with many people expressing outrage at the trooper’s actions. A petition on change.org has over 30,000 signatures to investigate and fire Romero.

You don’t get to go on a high speed chase because your dog is sick

In this DEI era, you just have to assume certain people are unqualified and wrong.

It sucks for those hired and on the job, even if they are qualified, but their racist appointing authorities and Democrats are the ones to blame for this.

Officer was in the right

The life of a dog is not more important than the life of a human

I wouldn't endanger other people on the road, but if he's a good boy I'd risk jail time.

She was right to pull her over, but situational awareness after she was pulled over should’ve kicked in.

Get the dog help then punish the owner

Even a woman in labor you gotta pull over, then the cop sees the situation and then escorts you to the hospital. Stupid bitch should have pulled over.

This is an interesting situation. The woman did have her safety blinkers on so that should have told the officer she was having some type of emergency so the officer should have been thinking "can I help" instead of "I am going to get that bitch".

I side with the cops here simply because the tweet in OP has a rainbow flag and pronouns

I think grok got this one wrong. Lady chose to the wrong vet to take her dog so she would've had to rush somewhere else to get carr for it anyways. And yeah she shouldn't have been running off the road like that

I understand the lady was in a panic, but I think she should have maybe called into 911 so they could let the officer know the situation. On the other hand, giving this lady a felony and taking her to jail over this seems a bit ridiculous to me.

Says the people who are reckless as hell themselves and think they own the road going 20 mph over and tailgating cars while cussing and throwing a rage fit .

The dog owner should have waited until the turning lane cleared before proceeding, but the cop was an a-hole for not allowing her to let the animal get the needed medical attention before simply writing the dog owner a ticket.

I've been told that Arkansas State Troopers don't give a shite about anyone or anything. I guess it was true.
