Police Woman in viral Memorial Day beach arrest is indicted

[TBO]

A woman whose violent arrest on a New Jersey beach earlier this year was captured on video was indicted last week.

 

Emily Weinman, 20, was indicted by a Cape May County grand jury on charges of aggravated assault of a police officer, resisting arrest, throwing bodily fluids and obstruction.

 

Weinman, of Philadelphia, was on a Wildwood beach during Memorial Day Weekend with her boyfriend and 18-month-old daughter when police officers confronted her after they believed she was drinking underage.

 

What unfolded was captured on police bodycamera and in a video shot by a nearby beachgoer.

 

Weinman complied with a breathalyzer test but the situation escalated when she refused to give the officers her name. One officer could be heard saying saying he's "done with" her and works with another cop to try to arrest the woman, the video showed.

 

She then ran away, shouting profanities and telling the officers not to handcuff her. "You're about to get dropped," the officer responded.

 

Weinman resisted arrest and as the officer continued to approach, she "forcibly struck" him in the torso, Police Chief Robert Regalbuto said — an action he claimed turned the officer's body camera off. It was apparently reactivated as the two struggled in the sand.

 

The officer punched the woman twice — as voices in the background could be heard shouting "stop resisting" — before Weinman spit in the direction of one of the officers.

 

The officers involved in the incident were identified by the Wildwood Police Department as Patrolmen Thomas Cannon, John Hillman and Robert Jordan. They were cleared of wrongdoing after authorities reviewed the video footage.

 

Weinman rejected a plea bargain offer in July.

Hope she gets what she deserves

 

1-She Hit and Spit at a cop, she should have lost a few teeth

2-Damn tourists always shitting things up, Cape May don't play should have stayed her azz in Philly

3 I hope she had a headache in holding with a lump or 2 and a bruise

 

This is the type of women I have to deal with....pray for me.....

Rejected a plea bargain?  Because she's innocent?  Does she know that there's a video?

"This was not Weinman’s first run-in with the law. According to court documents, Weinman was arrested in 2016 on $10,000 bail. She was charged with burglary, simple assault, criminal mischief, criminal trespass, and reckless endangerment. Weinman plead guilty to simple assault and reckless endangerment. She received four years of probation for the crime."

And all while on probation?  She's in a whole lot of trouble.

She played the game and won the prize.  Now it seems she has a chance to go for the grand prize.  Given the revelation in Boogieman's post that she's currently on probation, it appears that she is rather slow on the uptake.  Perhaps this pass through the courts will prompt her to wise up.

Oh who am I kidding.  She'll never wise up...
