STONE MOUNTAIN, Ga. -
It was a FOX 5 I-Team story that touched a nerve with police officers across the country.
A woman falsely accused a Stone Mountain police officer of cussing her out during a routine traffic stop.
Now, she has pleaded guilty to the felony charge of filing a false complaint.
This is how it unfolded. In 2015, Stone Mountain Police Sergeant Steven Floyd pulls over DeKalb Fire Captain Terrell Davis at a local school for an expired tag. Davis called his co-worker Krystal Cathcart to the scene. Sgt. Floyd issued the ticket but has to ask Krystal Cathcart to step away from the scene, since she wasn't involved.
Floyd tells her she needs to move, and when she asks why, he responds: “You cannot stand right there, and it's the last time I'm going to ask you or I'm going to put you in the back of my car.”
Krystal Cathcart filed a written complaint with his department. She claimed Sgt. Floyd created "a sense of fear" at the scene, cussed her out twice, telling her to "back the f*** up" or he will throw her in the "back of my squad car."
But, she apparently didn’t know Sgt. Floyd was wearing a body camera. During an internal investigation, after Stone Mountain Police played Sgt. Floyd's body camera video showing no cussing, Ms. Cathcart changed her story, writing "I recant the error of Sgt. Floyd using profanity."
Following our I-Team investigation of the incident, Krystal Cathcart resigned.
But, it didn't end with her resignation. Sgt. Steven Floyd hired an attorney and took his case to the DeKalb District Attorney's office.
In court, DeKalb prosecutor Chris Timmons, told a judge his investigation lead to the felony charge of filing a false statement.
“Essentially what Ms. Cathcart did, was in an effort to get Sgt. Floyd fired, she claimed he used profanity during the traffic stop which is a false statement,” Timmons told the court.
Cathcart pleaded guilty to one count of filing a false statement. She received a two year probated sentence. She also had to do 40 hours of community service, write two letters of written apology, pay a fine of 500 dollars and not work in public employment during her probation.
Ms. Cathcart had no comment. Neither did Sgt. Floyd. But, her punishment brought closure for one unfairly targeted police officer, protected by his sense of right and wrong, and a body camera.
Basically to sum it up...she got pissed because someone told her to mind her business
Thnx Sista Soljah...
@@homoerectus744 Welcome.
The entitlement was strong in her.
ha ha ha got busted before you could sue better if you tried you'd be in prison
@Hey Mister DJ derp?
Why the hell do women never get a real punishment? We treat them like big children
@Sonnenrad Yeah, I feel like a surf.
@Rizla 420 Compare the jail time. I guarantee the jail time for a man is longer than a woman on any crime committed
@Rizla 420 And yet, not enough....
Because she plead guilty instead of challenging it.
I suppose Smollett got real punishment? Or Epstein the first time they gave him that cushy plea deal? Or how about that poor college student whom the judge gave, what was it? A month? All because he didn't want to ruin his future just because of a few minutes of fun? Yeah, only women get off easy.
What?! She gets a small fine? That’s it?! No real repercussions. Disgusting what she did.
She lost her job. Isn't allowed to work in any similar job for two years. That'll really mess up your life.
She got a felony conviction. For job opportunities, that's the worst thing that can happen to you other than being put on the SO list. I would say an example has been made out of her.
Usually, the courts are far too lenient when it comes to crimes devoid of physical or financial repercussions (since he did not lose his job or face any disciplinary action, it in essence became a victimless crime). In this instance, I would agree with the previous two commenters in that the punishment was more than just. She’s going to be saddled with a felony for the rest of her life, she can’t work in her chosen industry for a minimum of two years (and possibly beyond, as she will struggle to be considered for a position once the employer becomes aware of her past behavior), and she’ll have to deal with the fallout of her court appearance being shown on national television. For once, I actually believe our legal system got it right.
@@makenziecely she attempted to deprive him of his career. I still believe she got off way to easy.
That small fine probably bankrupted her.
Support law enforcement Officers.
They need harsher punishments for lying. A felony charge isn’t enough. That was a career ending accusation.
The School of Smollett has many graduates this year!
Right they out here just showing off they degrees
Lmbo. The School of Smollet. I think she gets that degree in Professional Liar.
Ted Bundy you’re my idol sir
@@yourmotherslefttesticle3892 I'm flattered! Let's do lunch.
@Tommy B thanks
A good police officer who was almost railroaded by a "Karen".
I’m glad he didn’t let this go and got an attorney!
It's a shame that the good officers have to go through this
i fully agree.
It’s a damn shame the cop had to hire a personal attorney to prosecute this woman for trying to cost him his job
His Attorney only represented him. It is the job of the District Attorney to actually prosecute.
She should pay for his attorney and all court costs.
Lying comes naturally to some. Soulless cretins.
Indatparish-All cops attorney's costs are covered by the union OR covered by the State. He's not paying for this personally, BUT, she should have to pay the costs back to the State!
@@angelseightsix mostly but not always. If a department is not backing their own officer’s actions, they would have to rely on the union to defend them. But that costs money. The officers pay out of pocket to be a part of the police union. And not all officers choose to be a union member.
Not enough. She got off to easy. That office almost lost his job and everything.
Terrible
Good job officer!!! So happy that you did the right thing and made her pay the price!!! 💙
This happens more than we are told about & why body cameras are so useful to show what actually was said & done.
I love that since bodycams, bad officer's get called out. While the good ones, have backup.
I agree. All police should wear body cameras. 99% of law enforcement are honorable & have to deal w/this crap all of the time, and so many are ready to believe badly of them. I'm glad this officer took her to court!
It doesn't happen as much as it should over and over again they bury the video. Not to mention research how often if they get caught how little is done. Most of the time they just get transferred or written up
@@kellylorang6845 I'm Only Speaking of the "Honorable" ones, but years ago, before "Cams" and Cell phone video, Some officers would stop you, give you a verbal warning, send you on your way, and Never write it up. For example, a DUI stop, driver was asked to exit the vehicle, the cop took the keys and locked them in the vehicle. Drove the guy home or called him a cab, and told him to Come back in the morning, or get someone else to pick up your car. No charges, no criminal record, No longer a threat to public safety, No harm done. With EVERY WORD and Action DOCUMENTED, The Police have no choice but to follow procedure. A few Bad Cops, and a large majority of Self Entitled members of the General public, who refuse to own up to their actions have brought us to this. No officer is going to risk his or her livelyhood , to cut someone a break. Its actually kind of sad.
Yes, they have become indispensable
How come when cops get caught falsifying charges they don't get punished like this?
I like how she calls it an error rather than a bold faced lie.
That was her second lie. LOL
Exactly. But when Donald Trump Makes an error, he is Soon investigated and called a ‘pathological liar’ by Joe Biden.
Sadly, I see a lot of accusatory accusations coming from individuals, only to find out things didn’t go how it was reported for them just to respond “ oh, I’m glad it wasn’t true” or “ I just hope we can move on” no apologies
@@maxinesnow9451 thats rich. Difference is trump lies all the time.
I think you mean "bald-faced lie." Still..you're basically correct.
I love bodycams and thank the Lord this officer decided to take this further. He could have let this slide once he was in the clear from the false accusations, but she would have done this again. Now she will think about her actions before she lies again.
Probably not, but we hope she will.
this is how it should work for a good cop.
I dont get how you can claim to be so fearful and oppressed by law enforcement yet act so defiant and entitled when dealing with them and more or less shocked by any level of sterness. Respect is earned, it is not a right ..and needs to given to be received. If you break the law then expect to have to deal with law enforcement. Period.
She is probably out rioting for the BLM now.
@@catsdogsbaby8318 blm is racist
🤣😂🤣😂
And by BLM you mean Burn Loot Murder?
Yeah is like Antifa and BLM are not racist at all
so is she. Calls police chief a "skinhead" over a speeding ticket ruclips.net/video/jPRDv9eqzEU/видео.html
Looks like she f*cked with the wrong cop. I'm glad he didn't let this slide.
@Gordon Payne "COPS lie everytime they file report" huh? ...sounds to me like you've had MORE than a few "reports" yourself.
Gordon Payne your watching too much CNN bro. Take a break it will do you some good
Erica Thomas's cousin I'm sure.
@@claytonjennings262 Lol.
ACLU, Jessie Jackson, and Al Sharpton disappointed they can't make money off this.
That is just as shameful as a police officer not upholding his oath.
Thank you Thin Blue Line. Sorry you had this happen Sgt Floyd, we appreciate you
This is why BLM has petitioned to get rid of body cams. Interfers with their lies.
@Jules Winnfield they did and still are. This guy is lying
@@LtFocus Nah dude. They made a list of changes that had to done to the police force. One of the things was "no body cams". According to them body cams are an infringement of privacy.
@@LtFocus Went and looked it up. I do see some talk about claims that it's mass surveillance. I'm sure this is a minority of BLM, but something to consider.
BLM never petitioned the removal of body cams, police officers fought from them ever being placed on them.
"This is why BLM has petitioned to get rid of body cams. Interfers (sic) with their lies."
PolitiFact would rightly rate this as "pants on fire".
I am so proud of this man for standing up for himself and bringing this into the court room.
Get a grip. Co told the truth on this occasion, big whoop.
Thank you ladies for your comments. clearly none of you have the common sense of a piglet. Have a great day
This was multiple years ago... but unfortunately... I feel In today's world... the officer would've been fired or worse without even looking at the footage.. too many officers abuse their power... but the downside of that is that far too any good officers are targeted and prosecuted for many claim made against them
@@michiganpride389 that's not true. And who said he's a good cop? Nobody targets good cops she was just stupid.
@@redwheelbarrow9729 Quite the assinine statement.
I’m so proud of that Cop. He’s the kind of American I want in my community. 👍🏼🇺🇸❤️
DAMN this must be so satisfying for anyone that has ever gotten in trouble due to someone filing a false report.
Ruined her career trying to protect her boyfriend. Hope it was worth it.
200 hours community service with a sign ‘I’m a liar trying to disgrace a honorable officer ‘
Just 200? Thay should tattoo it to her forehead
😂😂 love to see that
like to see her on a road gang picking up trash
Been in a dude would have on average would have received 63% more time then her. Switch the genders dude is going to prision not just some slap on the wrist probation. She got off way to easy.
Imagine if police were held to the same level of accountability when they lie about circumstances of an arrest or detainment, file false police reports, mute body cams, and collaborate to level charges.
Back the blue until it happens to you
The cop was stern yet calm and polite.
Moral of the story: bodycams are wonderful for all circumstances
The camera doesn't lie. I'm glad it caught this scammer and justified the officer's actions. And I'm glad a bodycam can be used to help weed out bad cops, too. We need to be able to fully put our trust in our law enforcement officers, most of whom are deserving of that trust.
@@davidwalter2002 ANEN
Unless they "loose" the footage when in the wrong..and then no one is held accountable
In this case I'm glad the officer was proven innocent
not always. theres cases where cops plant drugs on camera but dont get charged or fired , the drug cases just get dropped
If she's willing to do this over an expired license plate that isn't even hers, who knows what else she is capable of doing.
spikefivefivefive she definitely thought she was a big shot. Imagine how working with her must have been?
who knows what she has done...
most crooks aren't caught the first time they commit.
Agreed. She is not honest enough for her job. She should be ashamed of her conduct.
We all know now we cannot upset the silver backs
The end of the report her attorney said she wanted to move on and put it all behind her and all I could think was the guy who got the ticket moved on a long time ago. She never would have had to put anything behind her if she had kept to her own business. Got to love body cams.
The camera is a real fair true witness and protector to all police officers.
These stories, are what should be covered by the national media.
She should never work for any government, city, county or state, ever.
She'll be a Democrat Senator soon.
If cops that do get convicted can keep their jobs, then so should she. She would make a great politician though, Republican or Democrat. They both lie.
@Jerry Garcia cool strawman bro. Would you like to provide any more evidence of you being dishonest, what do you think you have made the fact that you are a liar clear enough?
@@acetech8642 thanks for the heads up
Trevor Sullivan yea just watch the news and you’ll see and the corruption and stupidity that is the republican party
Too funny! The convicted “LIAR” got off too easy. She should also be made to pay court costs. She should pay the police sergeants legal bills and be compensated for his work time off.
Absolutely she should!
She recanted and lost her job. All her friends and neighbors know she's a dangerous liar. Glad she wasn't incarcerated. Justice was served.
@@bradroth2249 She should have gotten 30 days in jail on top of all her other punishment
@@adcolt54 and then some. Like other commenters said. Pay for his court/legal fees, and his time off work for the court hearings.
@CivilizationsGearBox
Actually, neither of us know what her sentence was based on. I based my opinion on observation and the facts that where given. She lost a good job. She apologized and seemed genuinely ashamed of what she did. It's very doubtful that she has done this before. What's so beta about showing some grace to someone who has learned their lesson?
Fill in the blank PRIVILEGE is a load of crap. Living a successful life is all about choices and effort and has virtually no bearing on gender or race. Less women are in prison because less women commit crimes.
FYI I am a sigma male.
So many new stories. So many more decent people out there not behaving badly. Cheers to the majority of decent folks. They come in many shapes, colors and ideology. They don't make the news for amazing accomplishments or for heinous crimes. They just go about their day. I need to remind myself of that when I watch the news or binge watch RUclips clips like this one.
Good Job Sir...she is out of job and got embarrassed in court and on the internet. Excellent work
!
Well this is a story that will never make national cable news guaranteed.
this is the game plan of people like this. Using cancel culture to hurt our Police
The video was from 2 years ago. Not news anymore. Duh.
@Ken Jernberg No, its because its not a big story... And honestly, the only one that seems radical is you.
@@jungleno4151 Oh no, it's absolutely relevant. When Police incidents, Statements made by people years ago are dug up from the grave, injustices against our brave Police Officers should be in the mix.
We can all share,share,shsre.
Imagine being such an awful person that you try to get a man fired from his job over a traffic ticket.
This expired tag is really costly 😆😆
And the ticket wasn't even going to her. She is an idiot.
I had someone try to get me fired over there non winning $25 lotto ticket. Wanted the money anyway. Contacted the lotto board and said I stole her ticket. Security cameras lady LOL
That's where a ghettoe mentality leads to, and now she's paying the price, for having one.
That's all i was thinking.. How horrible of a human being 😒
This is exactly why all police should have body cameras and record all interactions with all persons that they have interactions with. This Officer was an outstanding Officer and should receive monetary compensation from her and she should be given jail time!!!
40 hours of community service?
She should be in prison.
She should have been sent to Jail !!!!
Probation .... That's it ??? GTFOH.... Bet that police officer wanted to do something more than cuss her out ... Yeash almost cost him his career for goodness sake.
I think probation is enough tbh
@@BrewedLights No it isn't! It is a Felony, should be mandatory jail time. Period!
Should of also been charged of Obstruction of an Officer too (Misdemeanor)
Lock her ass up.
She should have done time in jail. She tried to destroy a person's life.
its supposed to be a felony in this country when you lie under oath/commit perjury!
As should every cop that does the same thing writing false allegations in reports.
Locking someone up for this is a waste of taxpayer money. He wasn't fired, he had video evidence. If she has no crmimanl past, 2 years of probation and the other terms have probably taught her a good lesson.
@@cmoulder3157 when cop lied in statement under oath to get me arrested for saying i would report them, cops said it was misdeanor and prosecution in really sketchy state of affairs said they wouldn't prosecute. Prosecutor wouldn't talk to me to find out what really happened. They all are scum. Got $100,000 out of taxpayers tho.
he can sue her
God Bless that officer. Clear integrity.
2 years probation for felony charge? She got away with a slap on the wrist.
Richard Costa not really. She lost her job and can no longer work in that field. How is that a slap?
Robin Newman Cage Only during her 2 year probation. Who cares about that lying rat!
Robert, nobody will hire this slime ball in the future.
She will go the welfare route and end up costing everybody.
Richard Costa she has a felony charge. She can legally own no firearms, no right to vote, and now she cant work in city positions or run for any office. It's almost fair.
Robin Newman Cage Are you out of your mind?????!!!! What would it have cost the officer if there was no recording. What would happen to him and his family. My God. She should be in jail, for a very long time. Oh, I wonder how many people were victimized by this poor excuse of a human.
Bottom line ,she deserves at least 2 years in jail.
2 years may be a bit much, but I certainly thinks she deserves at least 2 months (or what the officer likely would have received if he didn't have a bodycam.)
in a perfect world
@Justin cause it a her.
@@donaldcurry1020 sad but true
When they hide their face, you know you got em.
About time someone stood up for our police officers!❤❤

im so happy for the sgt and for this district attorneys office
When a false claim, the liar should get the sentense of whatever the crime they claimed the defendant would get.
Agreed, should apply to cops too.
@Sue Martino She got a slap on the wrist....should have spent some time in prison and the fine should have had a zero added to it.
Duuuddeee... Never thought of that. That would really give a deterrent. That's a good one
I agree totally and would add when a cop or DA hides exculpatory evidence they should also get the time the defendant would have gotten.
So a woman should get raped if she made a false rape report?
She should do jail time. He could have lost his job and never work in law enforcement again, the camera kept that from happening. She should have done atleast 6 months.
30 days would be enough to get the message across. But the $500 fine may have helped.
Cops could just go to a different county not a big deal
@@cringelocator479 dumbest thing I have ever heard. If someone lied about you at your job and got you fired it would be no big deal you could just find another job. That would have followed him everywhere he tried to get a job. I hope you are not serious, if you are you're a dumbass.
@@aal49 - Nope. Blacks do 30 days all the time. 15~20 hard time will get the message across.

So glad justice was served. What a piece of work she is.
The HATER has been punished... PERFECT. I am glad the Sergeant did fight her back in court. Congrats Sergeant, Well done
Glad this officer pushed for justice. Too many folks get away with these lies.
yes, usually cops.
Yup
Right. Cop or not, no innocent person ehould be locked up.
Right.
Why lie when you don't have to? I wonder what else she's lied about
people don't like blacks? since when?
The last time she probably lied? She probably lied about the last time she wiped her ass, ooga booga
I'll tell you the last time she lied...the last time she lied her lips were moving & she said "I dindu muffin wrong...this just be racist".
One lie tells one that there are probably more, and more to come.
There’s almost never a reason why you have to lie, but people still do it anyway. It usually has something to do with either being afraid of the consequences from telling the truth, or you’re trying to get something that you don’t deserve or really need. Another reason can also be wanting to get back at someone which is what’s happening here.
She needs to go to jail as it was a felony. Why is just getting probation? I can't stand when certain people are treated different then your average person.
Serves her right. Don’t make false statements and if you’re a captain of a fire department you definitely know the difference between right and wrong.
light punishment. she nearly managed to destroy his life.
For accusing him of using the F word? C'mon now
pgb twoofive not really he had a body cam
Her life is more ruined than his would've been (rightfully so, I'm glad she was punished). She can't work in public relations ever again and since she has a felony record good luck getting any job better than slinging burgers at Mcdonald's.
uuuultra - For trying to get him fired. Did you not watch the clip?
He would not have been fired even if he had used the F word. She exaggerated the encounter a bit by accusing him of using the F word, but so what? It's a pretty minor exaggeration. He would not have been fired for that.
500 dollar fine 2yrs probation for trying to wreck his life what a joke!
thanks to the *Me Lie too* movement it's even worse.
I agree with the people saying, false accusations should be harshly punished BUT...
*In the First Place, Men shouldn't risk anything, loose anything or be jailed, just based on a woman story without hard evidences*
@@juliusperseus8612 Write a law intended to help people, and guaranteed the next day someone will abuse it for personal gain or agenda.
If I were the Officer I would sue her for slander. I would go after her for everything she owned and wreck her existence just like she tried to wreck his. I would use every means at my disposal to make an example of this lying piece of crap.
yeo, isn't fair. should be at least a year in prison. it's a felony which is supposed to be a minimum of 1 year sentence.
She forgot to say, "I can't breathe!"
Driving with expired tags will get you a ticket! What's soo dam hard about understanding this concept???
But it was a bruddah giving a ticket to a bruddah with a sistah trying to cover his ass.
Do you even “racial inequality”, bruh?
In most states you get a ticket for the expired tags, but can get new tags and go to court and they will waive the ticket.
Because you shouldn't need tags in the first place
Didn't look like the dude getting the ticket was argumentative about it. This dumb bitch just decided to poke her head in.
Probation is not acceptable! This woman should have received jail time.
Women get lighter sentences than men.
I agree, the only thing that will make people who would make false claims think twice about it is they know they can receive real punishment, not these slaps on the wrist.
@ Kevin Dorst , I agree.
or she should have joined the police force and shot and killed someone, she would have gotten paid vacation and a light reprimand "for not following proper procedure."
I agree she lied 3 times, verbally, on paper then in court which is the last straw ?
Maybe 2-5 years for lying under oath would keep her off the streets,
The manager at a local Burger King was going to hire her but decided she would end up causing problems for him.
The body camera is such a gift to law enforcement and citizens alike. They protect both the cops and the citizens from lies and corruption. It's a travesty that not all police departments have them already. Such a small cost for the legal security it can provide - for both/all sides - after an altercation between law enforcement and civilians.
She claims it was an error 😳
Imagine the outcome if his body camera wasn’t on. How far would she have taken this?
Demonstrations and Mr Crump would have come running for another payday!
Well..it WAS an error. She f*cked up.
..or if the officer wasn't an African-American.
We ALL know, Exactly how far. As far as she could. 😑😞
How many people have had their lives destroyed by incarceration because police lie?
But now when the tables are turned one time it’s suddenly a big issue.
She was trying to hide her face from the camaras....but during the incident she was all up in some business that wasn't even hers.
Andrew King that's a true sign of a guilty person.
I have family that's the same way.
They get in your face and try to "preach" to you about something you're doing they don't agree with but,when you call them out about doing the same thing they...
1: get angry/screaming at you
2: use the excuse of "well,that's different" lol total hypocrisy.
@@nessadvantage9447 I have family like that as well.. I don't deal with most of them
So true! In the bible it says women should mind their own business, it's too bad she didn't follow that command!
She got her fifteen minutes of fame, but now she don't want to show her face? Bitch you reap what you sew. You wanted to get into a traffic stop that didn't concern you, now you gunna pay the price for lying about his conduct.
Sow. But I agree with you.
So glad that traffic cops now have cameras in them, so all interactions with stops are recorded! No more lies from the public!
Awesome to hear stories of police professionalism and good ethics (thank you, Sgt Floyd!) . Glad he gave an example to those who try to use their position of authority and public service for crooked acts. Her nerve to cover her face; that says even more of her character. Too bad she didn't get to pay thousands in penalty. Hope folks remember and do not let her work in public service AFTER their probation!
Every time she kept trying to hide her face just made me laugh even harder!! All this BS over an expired tag.
Probably would have got a warning ⚠️😆😆
And for a "co-worker" as well. The co-worker must be more than that.
And an issue that did not concern her. Her own kind was almost victim of her venom.
..and it wasn't even her car.
I feel like this when i go through airport security and they confiscate my liquid...or my sex lube...and say to myself no sense in causing a problem and potentially getting arrested over something that cost a few dollars, even though the lube is a non glycerin base

We need more cops like him in all agencies. Plus, why is that woman even getting involved? The officer was writing the driver a citation, until she got involved, it had nothing to do with her.
When your enemies are fighting, never interfere.
Such a petty, vindictive, and dishonorable person. Some jail-time would've been appropriate. False reporting against an officer isn't uncommon; great that cameras were in place this time.
Good for the police officer. This is why people should mind their own business if they are not involved in a traffic stop.
Never try to stand BEHIND an OFFICER doing his job. That is a possible threat to his life. Just like standing with ones hands in their pockets...
Her standing behind the officer during the stop is an officer safety issue. He doesn't have eyes in the back of his head, and he has to pay close attention to the driver.
Or stand quietly and video record the traffic stop from a appropriate distance..
Unfortunately there is too much corruption in law enforcement so its become necessary to watch the police even if its just a traffic stop. There are many officers that falsify reports and aren't honest.
This officer got justice and I am so happy. She was let off too easily.

Really lol.
@jeisa Jeis But its not a lot, nor is that what is furthering the divide. Its the intensely sensationalized left wing media. They have brainwashed millions of people into thinking all cops are bad based on the actions of very few.

Good these people need to be held accountable as any adult should.
This is ridiculous. We are trying to get rid of the bad cops the bad ones were not trying to get rid of the ones that are just there to do the job respectfully and Professionally this woman deserves more than this sentence
She should have had to spend at least 30 days in jail. We need false statements to be taken far more seriously. She got a baby slap.
30 days in jail is nothing bro. She got hit with a Felony. A felony will follow her for the rest of her life. I'd rather her get hit with the Felony than a misdemeanor and 30 days in jail.
@@notjohn439 i would like to see one example you have where a police officer knowingly falsified a document and got away with it despite it being brought to the attention of the public and the court. Considering it is both a career ending offense and a felony crime, I seriously doubt this is commonplace as you suggest.
She isn't allowed to have a job for 2 years and she had to pay a 500 dollar fine. Plus it's a felony charge with 2 years probation, even after it ends you'll be hard pressed to find a job when nobody hires felons. Compared to her trying to get the officer fired, that's way worse. Cop could easily get a new job but shes stuck for 2 years and barred from 99% of jobs for life on top of the fine.
@@DrakeOola thats what she gets for trying to ruin someone's career. There is no comparison between him and her, he did his job and she actively tried to ruin is life. She knew exactly what she was doing and she deserves every hardship.
False statements should be hit with the same severity what the victim being accused should have been prosecuted for.
30 days is nothing, should atleast be 2 years in prison for giving a false statement. and it goes for EVERYONE no matter how severe the matter is.
"she's not to work in public employment during the term (2 years)"
Really? Someone who lies and tries to get an honest cop fired?
How about NEVER working in public employment?
DemoKKKraps are okay with stuff like that. In fact, it's a prerequisite
Pff. Think anyone would hire her now after seeing this?
@@mjpraetorian4386 Yes, you know certain people would hire her.
Femenism
It should've been for an unlimited term she should not have work. In other words, hit the road and don't come back, EVER!!!
Lie on a cop= book thrown at you
Lie on husband= rewarded full custody and monthly payments by the court
Send her to jail for 10 years.....better yet..put her in for 20 fir a HATE crime...
She got a felony and she got two years of probation? A felony should hold at least at minimum of 6 months prison sentence
For a man it would.
she also be charged obstruction of justice
That’s not how that works in real life. First time offenders often get light probation.
@@Make-Asylums-Great-Again not with a felony.
@@jeremywoods770 key words. SHOULD hold a 6 month prison sentence.
See? This is another reason why body cameras are necessary to keep people from filing false statements against decent cops.
Fuzzyscarfandmittens Amen to that!
decent cop lol
define decent and why decent anyways? whats wrong with GOOD cops?
+Xarai Same thing. Stop being pedantic.
A lot of police departments are underfunded, and have to pay for ammunition and damages to their car out of their own pay checks. Not against them, but some police departments, although they have cameras on their cars, can’t afford them.
You're right cops nowa days are often villified by the mainstream media and every other political group they think it's racist while they're just doing their job which is too protect and serve, people just like to claim false hate crimes against people just because they're a "minority"
Thank you for your service sir
Bravo Sir 👏… it’s about TIME the public received just cause for their treatment of law enforcement!!! It’s a two way street!!!
Good on this officer. EVERY time a false complaint is filed, take the liar to court.
yes i agree same with cops who always lie on individuals in report all the time
@@johnyogi11 the courts would be backed up for decades
Only if police can suffer the same punishment or worse. They do notnas of now.
Falsifying a police report should not just be a felony and but should also be punishable up to 3 years in jail, a $5000 fine and no bail.
You piggy licking lovers are sickning how many times do you bend over for cops???
THE FACT THAT SHE WAS HIDING HER FACE SHOWS IT ALL
I love you
SHAME
Deliberately making a false police report should warrant at least 3 months behind bars
so glad this Sgt. had the strength to deal with this horrible woman.
She tried to make the sergeant lose his job. Instead, she no longer has the job she had before she did this. There's a certain symmetry to this.
Alex Jay shes to ignorant to b embarrassed.
Great example of irony.
The irony hits home ,finally.
Should know better than to get a loud-mouthed woman involved! And I'm glad that he decided to prosecute her.
This needs to happen anytime a criminal files false charges against police.
She shouldn't be allowed to work any city or state job ever again lying like that
Congratulations Officer, you deserve this victory. Too bad there's no charge for attending to obstruct.
Yeah, she deserved the felony. That'll follow her everywhere. and now, her word will be double-checked in any legal setting.
Your career in the public service is over, better luck in the private sector.
She will lie about it. That’s what she does.
I wonder if she will lose her job?
@@dcg590 She can't lie, it's on her record forever. IF, she ever tries to lie, she will then get another charge or a possible felony for lying about her record to get a public service job again. Or that they will have someone do a deep eternal search before she can even get a interview
