When the 1st lady said that getting sober isn't the problem, its staying sober, I honestly felt that. I too struggle with alcohol addiction. I had to also go to detox and rehab for almost 45 days to help treat myself. As of today, I'm 73 days sober. It's a real battle, and I hope that she eventually gets the help she needs.
I am so glad you had the self awareness/honesty to get treatment. I hope you never drink again, but if you do, just stop again, get treatment again. If you haven't already started to feel the rewards of sobriety, you soon will. Reinventing your social life/circle could be difficult, but so worth it.
Congrats! Every day is a blessing. Stay strong. Life sober is SO much more fun and rewarding than life intoxicated. Try not to go too fast. Remember it will take time to rebuild trust. Just go easy on yourself and make sure you have people you can call if you need to let off steam.
Agreed. Sometimes it's easy for all of us to forget the job isn't just supposed to be "LET'S BOOK 'EM, BOYS," but also ultimately to help everyone out. And when you see it, it's really refreshing.
@johnjamesleahy4065 (come una grande campagna pubblicitaria) Gran parte di questi video registrati dalla cam dei poliziotti, (causa la grande corruzione ) hanno un preciso ''compito'' quello di dipingere la polizia ed il singolo poliziotto, come il migliore dei ''padri'' e degli esseri umani. Ma sappiamo che non è sempre cosi.
it seemed like she kinda understood that, but just cant pull herself together and truly stop, in recovery she may be close to a breakthrough, she seemed to understand she was in the wrong. but i agree fully, a strong sign she has a serious problem with alcohol.
I hid it for years. Depends who is around you sometimes. Some people don’t pay attention at all and some pretend they don’t see. Too hard to deal with reality.
The cop that spoke with Donna #1 at the end of her clip was so kind & supportive. You can really tell that he cared about her welfare. I applaud him! Good job! Makes me feel like there are stand up police officers out there. 👏
Honestly she was way more sober than a lot of the people you see on these dui videos. Since she didn't do a PBT I'd have to guess she was around... .010 She got pulled over for improper turn signal, which is super petty to be pulled over for. Again, this is speculation, but I'm guessing the officer ran her plates, saw she has a previous DUI, followed her and waited until she made some violation so he could get PC for the stop.

5:56 "You guys are so cool aren't you?" "No, not really." Cop reflecting on his life choices that led up to the moment of him being out in the freezing cold at midnight having to wrestle in the street with a drunk 55 year old Karen acting like a toddler.
I had a cop give me a break when I was 17. Sitting in the car with the keys in the ignition but not on. I failed the field sobriety but asked if I had my friends parents from 3 doors down walk me to their house would he let me go and a man to his word he did. It’s been 13 years and I have never thought about getting behind the wheel inebriated or even buzzed. That was a good cop who saved my life and possibly someone else’s.
While I'm impressed with the cop, I'm more impressed with you! Most people don't take that opportunity to change their behavior,. especially not as a teenager. Good for you!
Same here but weren't drunk, just had open beers, threw out window, he found them. Had to tell our parents as he was going to. We did he didn't. 47 years ago 😅
I was having a VERY bad day once, was lying in the street on a median, when someone honked at me and cursed "gtfo the road" I got up angry and started towards their car, almost getting hit by a different car, when I got to their window, (very aggressively btw) I realized it was a cop. He very calmly said, please stay off the road way, and go home.... I easily could've been tased or shot with the way I was acting, and his actions saved me. Not all cops are bad. Thanks officer Lloyd.
I had too many to drink one night and figured it out once I tried to drive. It was probably 2am and I was alone on the highway and I drove really slow and it was dang hard trying to stay between the lines. I was praying to get home safe. I was going so slow I would have been a target if there had been a police car on the highway that night. I asked God to help me stay away and alert enough to get home and I would never do that again. I had a little girl home with my sister waiting for me and I didn’t have the money for jail, high insurance and was already living with her so I had nothing much. I made it home without harming myself or anyone else thankfully and I never did that again! I never realized how hard it would be to stay alert after drinking a few. That was actually very scary. I remember how scary it was and never did it again.
I have no sympathy for drunk drivers. Kudos to him for being a good cop, but she deserves none of it. A drunk driver is always one sip away from causing literal tragedies. Ruining multiple lives in a second.
@@misanthrophex In a perfect world, DUI would result in a steel cage or a pine box. Sadly, courts treat it as a joke, so persuasion is all that cops have.
@@HappysFunPalace I mean considering that "one mistake" could lead up to killing an entire family it's not something to just scoff at, especially since it's a preventable issue. It's even more selfish in this video because she'd rather risk the potential to ruin someone else's life because she doesn't want to feel the shame from her children.
@@HappysFunPalacea lot of deranged folks with no concept of the justice system in these comments. Anyone that thinks one mistake should equal life ruination is beyond reasoning with.
This behavior is exactly why I left home at age 17, moved across the country and broke all contact and communication with both my parents. Best decision I made. After a while you become emotionally unattached and those people go from being mom and dad to just Judith and Gene the narcissistic abusive alcoholics. I’ve since had ZERO tolerance for drunks and thank God for the courage to break free and live my best life. Amazing how far you can fly when you don’t have things weighing you down.
Don't be naive, no he wasn't. He was just gathering as much evidence as possible for a conviction. NEVER TALK TO THE POLICE. You've literally nothing to gain from it, whether you're innocent or guilty. They're not your friend all they are ever doing is trying to get evidence to get you for something, anything.
You’d be surprised how many officers have family who have had drinking problems. I was a 911 operator for 11 years. My father is still an abusive alcoholic. It allowed me to relate to the families and those we arrested who were in the throes of addiction.
„It’s not getting sober, it’s STAYING sober“😢 I felt that. Give yourself a chance to live. Wasn’t able to for nearly 20 years. April 27th 2010 is my sober date. It’s 15 years next spring! Finally alive ❤ Please, don’t give up! If I could, you can, too! 🎉

Of course I hope they are able to get clean and be a positive force in their own lives and those around them. But in the end it's completely dependent on them.
Retired NYC Ballerina here - we do have EXTREME turn out stemming from hips thru the toes. We tend to walk like ducks!

A surprisingly tender moment when the officer initially offers to get the hair out of her mouth and later does it. He showed nothing but compassion during that entire encounter, especially with the counseling at the end. That dude is a hero; no doubt about it.
I thought so, too. It makes me think that he may have a loved one who struggles with alcohol or some kind of addiction. He was extremely understanding and encouraging as well. I really do hope she gets help.
It was more so her saying that he must have felt super cool for “hurting her” and he told her he didn’t feel cool for doing that if she felt that way. He knows he’s a cool guy. 😎
When he shut her annoying mouth down with that "..but they do say don't drink and drive" you know he'll be alright. Despite this hideous creature lashing out he knows what he is doing is good for the world.
Greatest Video on RUclips. Date - Early December 2024. It was a masterpiece. We laughed ourselves silly, then fell under the drama - finally overstanding thier pain. We are all fuckups and we don't have to apologise for having gladiator spirts or having big hearts and dancing shoes. Perfect police people with cutting remarks and even sharper editing replacing the never ending tirade of videos with their never ending clichés. Thank You to everyone evolving. A.M.E.N
The first arresting officer was a gentleman. “I hope you feel super cool.” “I don’t.” He felt bad, but he professionally did his job. Respectful officer.
I used to tell guys this same thing. In my context, it was smoking and I would tell them it's easy to stop smoking. The hard part is not picking up the cigarettes again.
I’m from Melbournetoo. Just found this channel. Holy sh*t US cops are so patient. Here they ask you one question, within minutes compulsory breathalyser, then perhaps drug tested. If over the limit, arrested, the car is impounded. Instant licence suspended..then you go to the magistrates court…easy peasy…
@@afroken88 I think that it’s the absurdity of it all… the police , asking a million questions, then the stupid balancing on one leg tests…the risk that they may have guns…the whole performance of it all is fascinating to me..
That first set of cops were about the most professional I think I've ever seen. Enforced the laws, no egos got in the way, showed real concern for the Donna and seemed genuinely concerned for her future, all while finding a compliment in how she raised her kids not to drink like her
I don't know... at the station she actually came clean with the officer and admitted that staying sober was the hard part. Plus she admitted that she would probably go into withdrawal in jail as she drinks daily.
@@DrummerJacob Karen's what? The plural of Karen is Karens. Yeah, I know the autocorrect pops up on your PC/tablet/phone and wants you to change it to "Karen's", but do you do absolutely everything it tells you to do?
The end of the 1st video showed the true character of the officer. He was kind and without judgement tried to connect with the lady to encourage her to try to stop drinking. For a moment I thought he may have reached her. You never know, something he said may help. He could’ve easily just kept completely to the point, especially after how she treated him. But he took the time to try and that touched me.
🚩 as a recovering alcoholic with 7 years under my belt, that one cop at the end did an amazing job evening congratulating her when she said she went to rehab... She was beating herself up and he was trying to help her not feel so bad about the situation... (There is always hope and help if you want it )
In the first video, I loved how the cop mentioned her prescription meds and the instructions on them that say “do not drink while taking”. That shut the lady up.
@@scottmichaels12honestly I wonder how many of the crazier videos are meds and alcohol combined, especially the airport ones. Somebody takes a couple extra benzos on the way to the airport, then “one drink won’t hurt”, then blackout and wild crazy can kick in fast and hard.
@@E.Hunter.Esquire what are you confused about? She worded it weird, but she means ptsd flashback. Also what does that have to do with her having a moment of clarity?
I love that phrase, we'll save a seat for her. She seems to think it's too late but it's absolutely not. Her classes will welcome her back with open arms, I'm positive. I feel hopeful for her. Especially when she said "I can get sober, I just can't stay sober". I can't even remember how many times I've said that, made it to 30 days then relapsed countless times. I have 4 years now ❤
Who do you think you are out here distributing bonus points? He just asked him if he was hurt.. he's the supervisor so its a pretty super basic question..
I’m glad I don’t drink and I never will. I will NEVER EVER have to worry about alcohol related issues. Never have to worry about DUIs. Never have to worry about hurting someone else by drinking. It’s good life advice. Keeps you away from a LOT of trouble
Well, we ( the normal non drinking ones) should stay home from 6 p.m. to sun rise so as to avoid the DUI's. Yeah l know that wouldn't work. But gee whiz how do we not get hit by some person that thinks they can fly down the interstate going the wrong way at 110 mph. Thank you for letting me comment.
There's a funny documentary on yt from a time where it wasnt illegal to drink and drive and they first try to impose that law ( I hope I didn't mess up that english grammar lol)
I honestly don't get it. Like... I LOVE drinking! Talking shit, insane takes on politics and laughter. But why drive after? And why do they always seem convinced that they can still drive? And how are they also so convinced that they performed well on the tests?
You can help, but only if the person wants help. Hopefully she watches this and it makes her realize it's time to quit. And I hope her kids give her the ultimatum.
I was convicted of a DUI second offense in February of 2021. I started drinking again during the pandemic and this February I'll be celebrating 4 years of sobriety. And God willing I will never go back to drinking. Sobriety brings peace to your life and soul. I pray she takes this as a chance to change.

How could you not supportort cops when they have to deal with this on a daily basis? Thanks for keeping our communities safe officers. Keep up the good work.
It’s not that people don’t support cops! We as a society shouldn’t just blindly support all them and protect those that are abusing their power! There are a lot of great cops, the majority in fact. But the bad ones need to be called out for their behavior!
Plenty of cops do good work but there is ones who abuse their postion and the police do have an issue of properly dealing with it, police shouldn't just be fired for abuse when they are caught by the public. I do think people need to stop viewing it as a binary choice. Either you support the police or don't. Doesn't help the media likes to play into it.
@@Huls0356 It's not that we don't support the police. Most simply don't put blind trust in the police. You can have an amazing neighbors, but that doesn't mean that you keep your doors, windows, and cars unlocked, because most of them are amazing. You take precautions, regardless of who's involved. Same way with the police. There are some amazing police out there, who deserve more credit than they get. Which is why it's very important we take those precautions, punish the bad apples, and don't let genuinely corrupt, ego-tripping cops get away with wrong-doing, otherwise, they will ruin the trust and relationship between good cops and the public. Not to mention all of the other horrible things that abuses in power can do.
THIS CONTINUOUSLY UPSETS ME. WHY DO PEOPLE DRINK AND DRIVE? MY ENTIRE LIFE WAS MADE A DAILY STRUGGLE BECAUSE A DRINK DRIVER HIT ME AND TORE MY BODY APART. I BARELY SURVIVED AND I'M STRUGGLING DAILY FROM THE INJURIES FOR THE LAST 37 YEARS. I CANNOT STAND DRUNK DRIVERS!
Cause the laws are a joke. First offense should be 6 months mandatory in jail and 1 year suspension. Second should be lifetime suspension and 2 years prison. I know that's harsh but it needs to be to scare people into not drinking and driving ... I've driven drunk before when I was younger, but if I knew I'd be locked up for 6 months if I got caught there's no possible way I'd have gotten behind the wheel.
I mean i don't think they really needed to throw the Double knee replacement old lady to the ground and kneel on top of her but yeah other than that they were good. I just think it's funny they can cover you in bruises and that's just in the course of doing their dirty but if you sneeze in their general direction it's assault against an officer. Like you KNOW she's going to walk away with way more bruises. I doubt the cop even felt that "kick". And they love to throw in resistanting arrest for "tensing up", especially if you're mouthing off or they just don't like you. But I digress. Yeah she was being a pain and brought it on her self but they could've taken her age and size into consideration. I really don't think body slamming her was the only way 2 grown male cops could get cuffs on her. 🙄
@@SaunterVaguelyDown Actually ill double down and just say you dont understand the real world. have you wrestled someone down to the ground before and try to force their arms behind their back? no? so youre an expert on reasonable force?

I don’t drink and I don’t have any known addiction issues but I know it’s a lifelong struggle. I do, however, struggle with my temper. That’s a daily struggle. We all seem to have something. Good luck to you!
Keep it up, you can do it. Lean on friends if need be. I'm five years, three and a half months off of Heroin, so I understand. I was off the booze for over 19 years, and picked up an opiate habit, that began with pills, and ended up with Heroin. I didn't want any of it to happen. I had the money to support the dope, so there were no outside problems, with the law, or any of that. But, I worked every day, and was on the stuff. Not a good choice in my line of work. Anyway, here it is, over five years now, and no dope. Good luck on your journey. Like I said, use friends, your higher power, whatever it takes. You can do it.
When she’s saying “f@ck” over and over in the back of the cop car, I felt that in my soul. I know exactly how it feels to know you’re totally screwed and there’s nothing you can do about it

I appreciate every time LEO note, affirm, commend and encourage anyone who has been through detox, a sobriety program, or made efforts towards sobriety. They usually encourage them to keep trying. 👍🏼
The compassion of the first officer was something else. I had this sudden urge to sob when he got the hair out of her face. A small gesture but a huge moment of kindness
The editing on these videos is so much better than any other bodycam channel out there lol. So much added comedic value with the conversational shot switching
There is a great mom out there that raised a beautiful son. This officer is very concerned about her and she may remind him of his own mom. I truly hope that Donna gets her act together..do it for your kids...wich they turned out great...do it for them
as a person also in recovery, "STAYING sober" is the hardest part... recovery isn't linear...and trust me when i say, we we slip up, we kick ourselves more than anyone else could. the shame is what keeps us silent and drives us deeper into it. she sounds like she has a decent support system, hope she's able to get therapy to help with her ptsd :( trauma is no joke, and we do whatever we can to numb the pain.
I agree 100%. I got dependent on benzos after witnessing my brother passed suddenly. I have flashbacks daily and made my already severe anxiety almost unbearable. I went through withdrawals a couple times. That in and of itself was traumatic. I tapered off of them (I never abused but got physically dependent) 2 months ago after being on them for 4 years 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 I get the urge for them pretty strong from time to time but living tethered to them because of the withdrawal was no way to live. We got this. You got this. I am proud of you ❤

I feel for the first gal big time being a revolving addict myself. When she finally opened up at the end it all made sense. I really hope she can get the help she needs and that her kids will rally behind her. She needs to get involved in a good recovery program perhaps doing 30/30.

I can't believe how many people are on our streets driving in this condition. A drunk driver killed a family member and I have no sympathy for them. These judges need to stop letting them off lightly and need to impose harsher penalties.
Can we all agree that this cop not only was more than reasonable, but positively reinforcing the (few) things the lady had done right. Being a jersey would have just made her problem worse. *edit* My apologies to the Jersey folks, I meant to type "jerk" and autocorrect burned me.
It is true and I believe that the patient officers should be thanked and appreciated in the best possible way. This job is very dangerous and sensitive !

The last cop in that first video is actually the kind of cop we need a hell of a lot more of. While most people watching these videos have zero sympathy for the people who end up in these scenarios, we have to constantly remind ourselves that no one CHOOSES this. Wouldn't you prefer to be the person who says something that changes a life, instead of the person who just mocks and ridicules?
Perps are finally wise to the fact that there's a federal statute that states "If a detainee inquires 'what did I do?' or some variation thereof at least 250 times prior to being placed in the back of a squad car, they must immediately be released forthwith without any charges." Fortunately, most officers are able to get them into the car before they hit the magic number.
250 why and the officer must comply. s’what my grandma taught me. tasers start blinking at 200 to let em know your gettin close, that’s when you gotta get real dodgy, when they go for the tasers…

If you think you're hiding your drinking, you're not. If you're trying to hide it, you have a very serious problem with alcohol.
it seemed like she kinda understood that, but just cant pull herself together and truly stop, in recovery she may be close to a breakthrough, she seemed to understand she was in the wrong. but i agree fully, a strong sign she has a serious problem with alcohol.
Yep
Could not have said it better!
@@pattilemonhouse7911 I’m gonna remember that line.
I hid it for years. Depends who is around you sometimes. Some people don’t pay attention at all and some pretend they don’t see. Too hard to deal with reality.
The cop that spoke with Donna #1 at the end of her clip was so kind & supportive. You can really tell that he cared about her welfare. I applaud him! Good job! Makes me feel like there are stand up police officers out there. 👏
You’re under arrest.
Am I free to go?
She’s definitely not drunk
“I’m not drunk occifer, I just fell gettin outta my car”
Honestly she was way more sober than a lot of the people you see on these dui videos. Since she didn't do a PBT I'd have to guess she was around... .010
She got pulled over for improper turn signal, which is super petty to be pulled over for. Again, this is speculation, but I'm guessing the officer ran her plates, saw she has a previous DUI, followed her and waited until she made some violation so he could get PC for the stop.
@@stuartherreraNot sure what your point is? she's not as drunk as a lot of drivers? Jeez i'm just glad they got her off the road.
@@stuartherreraUmm newsflash kid….when you are a daily drunk for years…you act “sober” yet can have an extremely high bac! You missed the memo? I would wager she was .18-.22 BAC.

i wish more people thought of cops as that guy and not pricks. its a shame people judge them all by the bad minority.
That's why you're not doing it
The cop talking to Donna in the car is an absolute gem. What a kind young man. Not bending on the law but showing compassion.
Here on RUclips we call that WHOLESOME. Literally every day I soil my pants out of the sheer wholesomeness of it all. I think it's actually sweet. ❤
This officer is top notch
the office was respectful the entire time and was very comforting at the end.
This officer is so sweet. He really did try to connect with her.
Got the hair out of her mouth, adorable.
Yeah I thought that as well - you could see he felt sorry for her, maybe he has alcoholism in his family.

I had a cop give me a break when I was 17. Sitting in the car with the keys in the ignition but not on. I failed the field sobriety but asked if I had my friends parents from 3 doors down walk me to their house would he let me go and a man to his word he did. It’s been 13 years and I have never thought about getting behind the wheel inebriated or even buzzed. That was a good cop who saved my life and possibly someone else’s.
While I'm impressed with the cop, I'm more impressed with you! Most people don't take that opportunity to change their behavior,. especially not as a teenager. Good for you!
Same here but weren't drunk, just had open beers, threw out window, he found them. Had to tell our parents as he was going to. We did he didn't. 47 years ago 😅
I was having a VERY bad day once, was lying in the street on a median, when someone honked at me and cursed "gtfo the road" I got up angry and started towards their car, almost getting hit by a different car, when I got to their window, (very aggressively btw) I realized it was a cop. He very calmly said, please stay off the road way, and go home.... I easily could've been tased or shot with the way I was acting, and his actions saved me. Not all cops are bad. Thanks officer Lloyd.
Awesome Bro.
I had too many to drink one night and figured it out once I tried to drive. It was probably 2am and I was alone on the highway and I drove really slow and it was dang hard trying to stay between the lines. I was praying to get home safe. I was going so slow I would have been a target if there had been a police car on the highway that night. I asked God to help me stay away and alert enough to get home and I would never do that again. I had a little girl home with my sister waiting for me and I didn’t have the money for jail, high insurance and was already living with her so I had nothing much. I made it home without harming myself or anyone else thankfully and I never did that again! I never realized how hard it would be to stay alert after drinking a few. That was actually very scary. I remember how scary it was and never did it again.
I really liked that first cop. He was stern with her, but encouraging about her sobriety. Good on him.
I have no sympathy for drunk drivers. Kudos to him for being a good cop, but she deserves none of it. A drunk driver is always one sip away from causing literal tragedies. Ruining multiple lives in a second.
@@misanthrophex In a perfect world, DUI would result in a steel cage or a pine box. Sadly, courts treat it as a joke, so persuasion is all that cops have.
@@rogerborg your idea of perfect world = one mistake and youre jailed for life? lol
@@HappysFunPalace I mean considering that "one mistake" could lead up to killing an entire family it's not something to just scoff at, especially since it's a preventable issue. It's even more selfish in this video because she'd rather risk the potential to ruin someone else's life because she doesn't want to feel the shame from her children.
@@HappysFunPalacea lot of deranged folks with no concept of the justice system in these comments. Anyone that thinks one mistake should equal life ruination is beyond reasoning with.
This behavior is exactly why I left home at age 17, moved across the country and broke all contact and communication with both my parents. Best decision I made. After a while you become emotionally unattached and those people go from being mom and dad to just Judith and Gene the narcissistic abusive alcoholics. I’ve since had ZERO tolerance for drunks and thank God for the courage to break free and live my best life. Amazing how far you can fly when you don’t have things weighing you down.
good!
I like how the cop still talked to her like a human being. He was truly kind to her.
Don't be naive, no he wasn't. He was just gathering as much evidence as possible for a conviction. NEVER TALK TO THE POLICE. You've literally nothing to gain from it, whether you're innocent or guilty. They're not your friend all they are ever doing is trying to get evidence to get you for something, anything.
For real. 💯
He was bein slick jus trynna get info out of her but I still like that too tho 👍🏾
Same
You’d be surprised how many officers have family who have had drinking problems. I was a 911 operator for 11 years. My father is still an abusive alcoholic.
It allowed me to relate to the families and those we arrested who were in the throes of addiction.
first lady, omg, she has such a hard road ahead of her, and that officer wasso incredibly kind. Can we give that man a raise?
He really needs a big raise, people are a handful.
„It’s not getting sober, it’s STAYING sober“😢 I felt that. Give yourself a chance to live. Wasn’t able to for nearly 20 years.

You know that first woman’s kids have been telling her for ever that this is exactly what’s gonna happen if she doesn’t stop drinking.
Now, hopefully they won't assist her in any way. She has to accept the consequences of her actions.
@@fredzzkid If she actually tries to get help then they should help her, but she needs to take those steps herself first to prove to her kids that she wants to get better.
@@fredzzkidI don't know why you'd feel vindictive towards someone sick and suffering. There's nothing wrong with helping, so long as it's not a synonym for enabling.
This is like the best case scenario. They've probably been telling her she's going to die and/or kill someone else.
@@kbo8029 Unsure how you interpreted "vindictive." Do I detest any sort of substance abuse/addicts? Yes - I've had enough of my own experiences with them to know the drill. I do not feel vindictive - I don't desire to cause them any additional suffering. I just don't want any part of it. Of course I hope they are able to get clean and be a positive force in their own lives and those around them. But in the end it's completely dependent on them.
14:34 I'm very impressed with the empathy that the officer had with this woman who is clearly suffering from alcoholism.
Ah yes ballet dancers, notorious for having terrible balance and not being able to move their feet properly 🤣🤣🤣
😂
It does age your joints faster than normal. My aunt had both her hips replaced before 60.
Retired NYC Ballerina here - we do have EXTREME turn out stemming from hips thru the toes. We tend to walk like ducks! All she needed to do was stand in parallel position, it is VERY weird for Professional Ballerinas to do much in parallel but it’s most def possible!!! 😂 She’s no ballerina, she maybe took it 30 yrs ago as a kid - but nahhh don’t insult our profession lady!
To be fair, she did have 2 barrels of wine. I mean glasses. 2 *glasses* of wine.
If anyone can do that test drunk it one would think it's the ballet dancer.
A surprisingly tender moment when the officer initially offers to get the hair out of her mouth and later does it. He showed nothing but compassion during that entire encounter, especially with the counseling at the end. That dude is a hero; no doubt about it.
Definitely a good guy in the right profession, he will do great things I believe ❤
Agree. ❤😊
I thought so, too. It makes me think that he may have a loved one who struggles with alcohol or some kind of addiction. He was extremely understanding and encouraging as well. I really do hope she gets help.
The cop who kept saying he’s not cool seriously needs a hug
It was more so her saying that he must have felt super cool for “hurting her” and he told her he didn’t feel cool for doing that if she felt that way.
He knows he’s a cool guy. 😎
I thought he needed a hug too.
I agree
When he shut her annoying mouth down with that "..but they do say don't drink and drive" you know he'll be alright. Despite this hideous creature lashing out he knows what he is doing is good for the world.
@@TwoBsThe people she didn’t run over that night also know he’s cool.

The conduct of these officers is praise-worthy. They are dignified and professional without tolerating the abuse.
“We did not hurt you” *in unison* is comedy gold
The first arresting officer was a gentleman. “I hope you feel super cool.” “I don’t.” He felt bad, but he professionally did his job. Respectful officer.
He didn’t. Getting compliance is a skill often called, ‘de-escalation’. Most times it works until it doesn’t. All officers want to go home too.
I also like how he talked to her about her alcoholism, sounded like he knew how bad that shit can be.
An officer and a gentleman you say.
I don't think he felt bad about doing his job, more about the fact that she made it necessary to cuff her.
Officer could have replied that he's feeling good about taking a fool off the streets.
The problem is staying sober...truer words.
That is the hard part.
I used to tell guys this same thing. In my context, it was smoking and I would tell them it's easy to stop smoking. The hard part is not picking up the cigarettes again.
ata boy for not being a dick!
Yeah, getting sober requires a sleep and maybe a greasy breakfast. Staying sober requires discipline.
Yeah I started off laughing at her but that got me to tear up. Addiction is ugly and no one is immune.
I really hope she can keep sober after this...
How chilled is this cop??
So calm.
So funny.

The courts should have a law that requires the drunkard to watch the body cam footage while sober with one family member and one coworker.
That first set of cops were about the most professional I think I've ever seen. Enforced the laws, no egos got in the way, showed real concern for the Donna and seemed genuinely concerned for her future, all while finding a compliment in how she raised her kids not to drink like her
That first Donna, she won’t take responsibility for anything will she?
She said “I’m not a violent person” 😂
She is hateful and immature in her treatment of the cops. Don’t inflict your self-hate on others.
They should give Karen's a break and start calling these Donna's and Dons
I don't know... at the station she actually came clean with the officer and admitted that staying sober was the hard part. Plus she admitted that she would probably go into withdrawal in jail as she drinks daily.
@@DrummerJacob Karen's what? The plural of Karen is Karens. Yeah, I know the autocorrect pops up on your PC/tablet/phone and wants you to change it to "Karen's", but do you do absolutely everything it tells you to do?
The end of the 1st video showed the true character of the officer. He was kind and without judgement tried to connect with the lady to encourage her to try to stop drinking. For a moment I thought he may have reached her. You never know, something he said may help. He could’ve easily just kept completely to the point, especially after how she treated him.

(There is always hope and help if you want it )
In the first video, I loved how the cop mentioned her prescription meds and the instructions on them that say “do not drink while taking”. That shut the lady up.
More people need to understand that if you're taking these types of prescription meds, you cannot drink.
@@scottmichaels12honestly I wonder how many of the crazier videos are meds and alcohol combined, especially the airport ones. Somebody takes a couple extra benzos on the way to the airport, then “one drink won’t hurt”, then blackout and wild crazy can kick in fast and hard.

Glad that one officer seemed to understand the struggle with addiction
He more than likely sees it every single day in many different forms.
"I'm going into the PTSD mode."

How could you not supportort cops when they have to deal with this on a daily basis? Thanks for keeping our communities safe officers. Keep up the good work.
It’s not that people don’t support cops! We as a society shouldn’t just blindly support all them and protect those that are abusing their power! There are a lot of great cops, the majority in fact. But the bad ones need to be called out for their behavior!
Plenty of cops do good work but there is ones who abuse their postion and the police do have an issue of properly dealing with it, police shouldn't just be fired for abuse when they are caught by the public. I do think people need to stop viewing it as a binary choice. Either you support the police or don't. Doesn't help the media likes to play into it.

@@Huls0356 It's not that we don't support the police. Most simply don't put blind trust in the police. You can have an amazing neighbors, but that doesn't mean that you keep your doors, windows, and cars unlocked, because most of them are amazing.
You take precautions, regardless of who's involved.
Same way with the police. There are some amazing police out there, who deserve more credit than they get.
Which is why it's very important we take those precautions, punish the bad apples, and don't let genuinely corrupt, ego-tripping cops get away with wrong-doing,
otherwise, they will ruin the trust and relationship between good cops and the public.
Not to mention all of the other horrible things that abuses in power can do.
THIS CONTINUOUSLY UPSETS ME. WHY DO PEOPLE DRINK AND DRIVE? MY ENTIRE LIFE WAS MADE A DAILY STRUGGLE BECAUSE A DRINK DRIVER HIT ME AND TORE MY BODY APART. I BARELY SURVIVED AND I'M STRUGGLING DAILY FROM THE INJURIES FOR THE LAST 37 YEARS. I CANNOT STAND DRUNK DRIVERS!
People simply don't care about others sadly
Not everybody lives their life knowing about you they are actually dealing with their own struggles and make poor choices did you know that
@deadmanswife3625 poor choices are things that affect only that person. Drunk driving is a criminal activity that kills people
Cause the laws are a joke. First offense should be 6 months mandatory in jail and 1 year suspension. Second should be lifetime suspension and 2 years prison. I know that's harsh but it needs to be to scare people into not drinking and driving ... I've driven drunk before when I was younger, but if I knew I'd be locked up for 6 months if I got caught there's no possible way I'd have gotten behind the wheel.
I drove drunk once. Never again. I was so thankful that I didn't hurt or kill someone.
These cops are honestly pretty good people. I love to see nice good cops like this who don’t have an attitude and try to stay polite and professional.
they on camera lol
@@sd4802 all cops are on camera tho
I mean i don't think they really needed to throw the Double knee replacement old lady to the ground and kneel on top of her but yeah other than that they were good.
I just think it's funny they can cover you in bruises and that's just in the course of doing their dirty but if you sneeze in their general direction it's assault against an officer. Like you KNOW she's going to walk away with way more bruises. I doubt the cop even felt that "kick".
And they love to throw in resistanting arrest for "tensing up", especially if you're mouthing off or they just don't like you.
But I digress. Yeah she was being a pain and brought it on her self but they could've taken her age and size into consideration. I really don't think body slamming her was the only way 2 grown male cops could get cuffs on her. 🙄
@@SaunterVaguelyDown In your perfect scenario people would have no reason to comply with cops.
@@SaunterVaguelyDown Actually ill double down and just say you dont understand the real world. have you wrestled someone down to the ground before and try to force their arms behind their back? no? so youre an expert on reasonable force? And that wasnt just "tensing up", like just use your eyes... and brain if you have one.
"oh pat me down, please, it might get me off"😂
😂😂😂
It would be her first.
😂😂😂 O-M-G
Omg
🤮
HAHAHAHA I DIED OF LAUGHTER when she goes off about the pills and the officer tells her "Well they do say don't drink and drive on em" and she just sits there like........ OWNED BCH LMAO
Kudos to the cop for not letting her use her phone during the traffic stop.
I have compassion for this police officer dealing with drunks is probably the most frustrating thing I could ever imagine
These "drunks" dealing with themselves everyday...imagine how hard that would be
7 1/2 months sober. These videos keep me wanting to go for that 1 year mark.
I don’t drink and I don’t have any known addiction issues but I know it’s a lifelong struggle. I do, however, struggle with my temper. That’s a daily struggle. We all seem to have something. Good luck to you!
Keep going and good for you! Praying your holding on strong to your goal. 🙏🥹
Hope you’re now at 8 months. Keep going!
Keep it up, you can do it. Lean on friends if need be. I'm five years, three and a half months off of Heroin, so I understand. I was off the booze for over 19 years, and picked up an opiate habit, that began with pills, and ended up with Heroin. I didn't want any of it to happen. I had the money to support the dope, so there were no outside problems, with the law, or any of that. But, I worked every day, and was on the stuff. Not a good choice in my line of work. Anyway, here it is, over five years now, and no dope. Good luck on your journey. Like I said, use friends, your higher power, whatever it takes. You can do it.
Congrats on your sobriety
Damn that cop is awesome, she needed that conversation. Bless her , she will appreciate this one day
When she’s saying “f@ck” over and over in the back of the cop car, I felt that in my soul. I know exactly how it feels to know you’re totally screwed and there’s nothing you can do about it
Wish you’re never in that type of situation again😬🙏🏽
The nasty swearing,from Americans of all ages,is horrible.
@@eh-i1841 as opposed to all the shit in your culture...im assuming arabic

@ChrisWellDone1 no bro are mixed up Hella. Name the republican right now?

The first one...That last cop was SO nice talking with her. I appreciated that.
The compassion of the first officer was something else. I had this sudden urge to sob when he got the hair out of her face. A small gesture but a huge moment of kindness
I know right. That was so sweet of him. Im glad someone else noticed that.

The editing on these videos is so much better than any other bodycam channel out there lol. So much added comedic value with the conversational shot switching
That cop talking to her around 13/14 minutes in nearly had me crying. He was so kind and understanding to her.
There is a great mom out there that raised a beautiful son. This officer is very concerned about her and she may remind him of his own mom. I truly hope that Donna gets her act together..do it for your kids...wich they turned out great...do it for them
as a person also in recovery, "STAYING sober" is the hardest part...
recovery isn't linear...and trust me when i say, we we slip up, we kick ourselves more than anyone else could. the shame is what keeps us silent and drives us deeper into it.
she sounds like she has a decent support system, hope she's able to get therapy to help with her ptsd :(
trauma is no joke, and we do whatever we can to numb the pain.
I agree 100%. I got dependent on benzos after witnessing my brother passed suddenly. I have flashbacks daily and made my already severe anxiety almost unbearable. I went through withdrawals a couple times. That in and of itself was traumatic. I tapered off of them (I never abused but got physically dependent) 2 months ago after being on them for 4 years 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
I get the urge for them pretty strong from time to time but living tethered to them because of the withdrawal was no way to live.
We got this. You got this. I am proud of you ❤

@@015beansmay I ask what you do to handle the urges? I too, definitely understand. ❤❤❤
Facts ❤😢❤
I mean. That's assuming she's not lying about being attacked and having PTSD. Alcoholics lie.
The pause before she says F***!! After he says “well, they say to not drink and drive on them,” when talking about her prescriptions is legendary 😂
😂😂 I know i laughed at that part.too hahhaha
I love when cops get exasperated and just yell, "STAAAAHHP!!" Like they can't believe this crap. LOL!
I hope the first lady turns her life around. The fact that her kids love her enough that she throws the bottles out at a gas station instead of her trash is so sad, but a blessing in the sense that she has people that care about her.
You know that's not true
OH drunks hide their drinking to keep others from seeing they are drunks, they don't care at all of that person's feelings.
@@Jim-hj4py I know. I meant her kids still must care about her even if it comes out as anger when finding bottles. If they truly didn't care about her, they wouldn't feel anything towards her on any level.

@@mremuexactly she been struggling for years it’s tiring and hard. The love never stops! Just hope for better and try to tell her to do right, I at times even send her videos like these or try to talk about going to meetings… ALSO when I did Uber I had a lady go to the store and told me to drop her a few houses from her house” kids” they do hide it. It was just sad because I know her kids are hurting like my sisters are about our mother!
First rule of an alcoholic, they THINK THEY ARE IN CONTROL
When they're not.
They think they are in control of everything, and they believe their own bs so hard, they think everyone else believes it.
Like my staggering drunk housemate, with wine stains around his mouth telling me he hasn't been drinking.
Second rule; they are also always the victim.
@@jacquelineaslan8403 this afternoon, my afore mentioned housemate has a friend of his coming to remove him and his possessions from my home. I'm curious to see what spiel he has told this friend as to why he had to move out.
He explained losing his job as "... for turning up for work with a hangover, ONCE!". When in reality he didn't turn up for work AT ALL, for three weeks, because he was drinking, TWICE!.
@@theflamingone8729that’s so tragic what a really rough road ahead if he doesn’t seek help. I’m a nurse and I will say without fail that alcohol has to be one of the worst addictions. They can use for SO long without it physically destroying them, there is a social acceptance around the purchase of it, the criminality around it is less so even the legal system won’t stop them for long.
In the end they often tend to be in a nightmarish physical state and many develop dementia. The ways I’ve seen people pass ultimately due to long term alcohol abuse are some of the most upsetting.
I hope that you live a more peaceful life now and that person gets help! ❤
@@mariella2884 thanks. He was very resistant to treatment. He said he couldn't not work for the 4 month rehab process. I pointed out that he hadn't been able to work without treatment. I gave him the forms that would enable him to ban himself from buying takeaway alcohol for 3 months, 6 months, 12 months or indefinitely (it's called the Banned Drinker Register), I doubt he will do that.
Anyway, he's out of my life now.
It's been clean and quiet here now.
The doors of AA are always open,,, no matter how many times you have to come back. We love you Donna! ❤
Just sucks yall gotta push religion with it. So many more could be helped with AA if it weren't for the judging. May not be you or your circle but for most small town AA groups, it's Love God or accept his condemnation!
As a member of AA in a A very rural small town and every AA meeting I've ever attended it's stated " God as you understood him" it's a power greater than yourself. Never says anything about specifically a Christian God. I know plenty of atheist and Muslims and others in AA
I don’t miss this at all after my bottom 15 years ago. My problems made hers look like a hill of beans.
@@Jordan-sy7myagree. My wife had a bad drinking problem, but didn’t like going to AA because of the religion part of it.
@@Jordan-sy7my oh yes I see! Of course you have an issue with that... because that's the main issue. God Bless ya
I feel for the first gal big time being a revolving addict myself. When she finally opened up at the end it all made sense. I really hope she can get the help she needs and that her kids will rally behind her. She needs to get involved in a good recovery program perhaps doing 30/30. There are truly so many programs out there and can easily search for one in your area right from your phone. Just celebrated 9 years on November 17.
"You must feel super cool!"
"I don't actually" 😂😂

I legitimately felt bad for that cop.
@@Hidori41He takes no joy in making people’s lives harder. But that’s exactly the kind of people we need in uniform. Authority should only be given to those who don’t want it.

@@fZionists78So true. Not power tripping, just trying to get intoxicated drivers off the road. He must have felt very tired, understandably.
I can't believe how many people are on our streets driving in this condition. A drunk driver killed a family member and I have no sympathy for them. These judges need to stop letting them off lightly and need to impose harsher penalties.
These are just the ones that get caught 😢
I'm so sorry for your loss 🙏❤🤟
“She had some prescription pills in her bag”
“NO NO NO, those pills are all prescribed!”

They can be prescription pills and not her prescription.
I was looking for this comment lmaoo
It’s people like this that reminds me why I stay sober
That cop sounded so defeated that he had to do more paperwork for the night 😂 I feel you brother
This primary officer is AWESOME!
Can we all agree that this cop not only was more than reasonable, but positively reinforcing the (few) things the lady had done right. Being a jersey would have just made her problem worse.
*edit* My apologies to the Jersey folks, I meant to type "jerk" and autocorrect burned me.

What a lovely officer in the first one, truly kind. Hope she found her way.
She won't
It is true and I believe that the patient officers should be thanked and appreciated in the best possible way. This job is very dangerous and sensitive !
They put others lives at risk - their cars should be impounded
You edited this so well. The back and forth pan between camera angles of them talking is so funny
LOL... Mike drop at the officer's "no drinking & driving on prescribed meds" comment! That was brilliant!
I have a question where do you get these videos from? I kind of want to do my own research and find some, but I wanna know where you guys get them from so I can figure out where to start. 23:18
Every time the drunk said " You're hurting meee!!" I wanted to reply, "You're hurting your Kids."
And themselves

She's a liar. lol
@@roseabee7503 thank you!! 😂🤣 If I was the officer I would have told the lady my daughter was a ballet dancer and that she only had issues like the lady when she was drunk LOL

@@zoloboys9273 LMFAO 😂😂😂
Looks like ballet is about 50 years in the past.
The last cop in that first video is actually the kind of cop we need a hell of a lot more of.
While most people watching these videos have zero sympathy for the people who end up in these scenarios, we have to constantly remind ourselves that no one CHOOSES this.
Wouldn't you prefer to be the person who says something that changes a life, instead of the person who just mocks and ridicules?
That last lady counting and stomping her foot reminded of the old bit where a horse would count by stomping 😂😂😂
Perps are finally wise to the fact that there's a federal statute that states "If a detainee inquires 'what did I do?' or some variation thereof at least 250 times prior to being placed in the back of a squad car, they must immediately be released forthwith without any charges." Fortunately, most officers are able to get them into the car before they hit the magic number.
250 why and the officer must comply.
s’what my grandma taught me.
tasers start blinking at 200 to let em know your gettin close, that’s when you gotta get real dodgy, when they go for the tasers…
