didn't she blow through a stop sign that caught the cops attention? then she didn't signal to change lanes...he had every right to stop her.
Then she had to be a total fricking bitch...had she just been polite she would have never been arrested. Hell not even polite just civilized.
"The footage shows that Encinia initially wrote a routine traffic violation warning for Bland. After he returns to her car and speaks briefly to her again, he asks her to put out her cigarette. She responds, "Why do I have to put out a cigarette when I'm in my own car?" Encinia orders her to "get out of the car",and, when she repeatedly refuses to exit with the defense of there being no apparent reason for her to do so, he tells her she is under arrest. Bland repeatedly asks why she is under arrest, and Encinia responds, "I am giving you a lawful order."She refuses to leave her car, stating she is not under arrest as she is unaware of the reason and not obliged to. Encinia then opens her car door and tells her more than a dozen times to get out of the car before he tries to pull her out. After struggling, he draws his Taser and points it at Bland, shouting "I will light you up! Get out! Now!", at which point she exits her vehicle"

I don't see anything about a stop sign. Sounds like the Officer was a compelte douche trying to arrest her for literally no reason, and she bears partial responsibility for escalating it. It's definitely not cut one way like y'all claim it is. Once again, the Department found that the officer acted improperly.
Regardless, I've said that's not why she's dead.

in the video someone on here stated she ran a stop sign...I think at the end of the first stop as he was getting in his car.

she was being such a count. the cop lost his cool with the bitch and took it to another level. I don't think the cop was right with how he reacted but I definitely think she was more out of line than the cop. It is pitiful that some people choose to treat others with such a lack of respect.
