Bodycam video reveals woman lied about being raped by cop who pulled her over for DUI

Officer cleared of fake rape claim.

ELLIS COUNTY, Texas (KWTX) Philadelphia lawyer S. Lee Merritt, the attorney for a woman who accused a Texas trooper of sexual assault after a traffic stop early Sunday on Interstate 35, is apologizing after bodycam video was released late Tuesday that appears to contradict the claims.

“The body camera footage released directly conflicts with the accounts reported to my office,” Merritt said in press release Wednesday.

“Officer Daniel Hubbard appears to comport himself professionally during the duration of the traffic stop and arrest and—without more—should be cleared of any wrongdoing,” he said.

“It is deeply troubling when innocent parties are falsely accused and I am truly sorry for any trouble these claims have caused Officer Hubbard and his family. I take full responsibility for amplifying those claims to the point of national concern.”

Sherita Dixon-Cole, 37, of Grapevine, was pulled over for a traffic violation at around 1:30 a.m. Sunday on southbound I-35 in Ellis County near U.S. 287 and then was arrested for driving while intoxicated.

She was taken to the Ellis County Jail.

New York-based activist and writer Shaun King later claimed in a Twitter post that went viral that although Dixon-Cole passed field sobriety tests, she was arrested because the trooper "didn't like her attitude."

King claimed that the trooper sexually assaulted Dixon-Cole and threatened to shoot her fiancée, who had arrived at the scene of the traffic stop in response to a phone call from Cole.

Not surprised the trans-racial fake black dude Shaun King is involved.

He's the white dude who identifies as a darker shade of pale and has usurped the old and tired ass dynamic duo Al Sharpton Jesse Jackson.

Shouldn’t he get his pasty ass on the Mayflower?

He came over on a slave ship.  In Chains.  Held in a cage.

Who does she think she is, Stormy Daniels?

Stormy Daniels claimed to have been raped by a Texas State Trooper?

Not at all, I was comparing her to another publicity seeking woman of ill repute.

Another instance where body cams turn out to actually be to the advantage of cops.  These come up all the time in places where body cam requirements have been instituted, but are ignored by the police unions who resist body cam requirements because they prefer the police being unaccountable to police being protected from false accusations of misconduct.

She should have been arrested for wearing that stupid hat, if for no other reason.  Whadda dumbazz.

No wonder BLM and the NAACP have reversed course on their demand for cops to wear body cams.

The video taken from them is ruining the "cops hate black people" meme.

The VIDEOS plural. Consistently it exonerates the police officer. The other complaint BLM/NAACP have is that it frequently leads to additional charges after the officer reviews the footage. Both groups were demanding that reports written up prior to viewing could not be amended.

These videos exonerating policemen puts into doubt all the stories black people tell about being pulled over because they're black i.e. DWB.
From the stats and tests I've seen (one from New Jersey) it seems black drivers are pulled over about five to ten percent more than other drivers. But the tests were done blindly and showed black drivers committing more traffic infractions than other drivers.
Knowing the current racial climate with blacks and the media condemning police officers out of hand, would non black officers (with their jobs at stake) deliberately stop black drivers for nothing? Knowing the grief you'd face, if you were a traffic cop, would you stop black drivers just to harass them?
I now have serious doubts about any black person claiming harassment  from white officers.  Too many of these videos are showing black people to be liars and frauds.

There is a YouTube video by "Mike the Cop" that has just about the perfect response when some one plays the "Race Card" Sir are you saying that the color of your skin causes you to run stop signs, speed, drive recklessly, etc..... That generally shuts them up. Now he also works in Detroit, where the population is largely African American, consequently the majority of his tickets are to African Americans.

Some friends of mine and yours truly once visited one of their cousins who lived in a large city in an integrated neighborhood.
Before the trip the cousin told us to be very careful driving to her home because many of the people in her neighborhood didn't take kindly to traffic laws. They, the traffic laws,  were more like suggestions to them, her neighbors,  not to be taken seriously.
When we got to her house and went through the door, she locked and bolted it as fast as she possibly could. Every time we went into her house, she quickly locked the door and bolted it.  When I say she ran to lock and bolt the door, that's exactly what she did.

This woman needs to be charged with submitting false information to a police officer, and receive punishment as strict as what she claimed happened.

Cops should not be constantly blamed first for any type of testimony against them.

I wouldn't want to live like that.
Is she still there?

That was in the early nineties. She was a cousin of my friend's wife. My friend got divorced a few years later, and I haven't seen his ex-wife or the cousin in about twenty years.
