Woman Threatens Officer’s Life Over Speeding Ticket – Dumb Criminal of the Day

There are things you should do when pulled over by a police officer. Being respectful and polite? Good. Threatening to kill the officer? Bad.

In St. Lucie County, Florida a 25-year-old woman was pulled over for going 74 in a 60mph zone and when questioned by the officer she unleashed an angry tirade, threatened to kill the officer and sped off, leading to a 13-mile high speed chase.

First of all, the ticket she should have got for her speeding would have cost $600. The traffic cop was actually trying to help her out and offered to write the ticket for 69MPH, which would have cut the cost down to $128. If a cop said that to me, my response would be something along the lines of, “Bless you kind sir/madam...bless your kind soul.”

What did this woman say to him? According to TC Palm?

You are an ugly person. Why are you picking on me? What about all these other cars?

Things went south very quickly after that. The women kept spewing angry rants at the cop, who had changed his mind as was going to write her the full $600 ticket. She then took it to a new level and threatened his life.

I am going to kill you, you are dead!

After that she sped-off and took police on a 13-mile high-speed chase that ended with police blowing her tires out with spike strips and arresting her.

Something tells me she is going to be out a lot more than $600 now.
