I am trying to think of any reason for the cop to escalate it that quickly. I can't think of one reason. Like, did he think Scottie was the one who hit the pedestrian?   Like, let him pass, follo

A pedestrian (someone working at a vendor for the event) died this morning from traffic near Valhalla. The cops are all probably on edge trying to keep everyone safe. It sounded like it was a solid miscommunication deal. However, a cop hanging onto your vehicle yelling stop usually means stop. I can’t imagine these guys driving more than 15mph around the entrance.  

Either way, I hope Scottie can play well and give it another tun.

I completely buy that explanation. I just don't see how Scottie could have 'assaulted' an officer in any sense of the word. It's not like he was trying to escape a possible DUI or a committed robbery. Not that he is not accountable (there certainly should be some sort of prosecution from the looks of it) but, as someone posted earlier, LPD/State of KY will most probably not miss out on the opportune payday. If they do as I think they will, then that will be one state that I can drop off my list of places to retire.

Assault is not battery. Assault is just the threat or implication. Assault doesn't take much, let's put it that way.

Well, in the least it implies intention. Unless this cop looks like a TP5, I just don't see it. 

Anyway he seems to rolling along just fine. Good for him.

Lawyer up, Scottie.

508.025 Assault in the third degree. (1) A person is guilty of assault in the third degree when the actor: (a) Recklessly, with a deadly weapon or dangerous instrument, or intentionally causes or attempts to cause physical injury to: 1. A state, county, city, or federal peace officer.

(2) (a) For a violation of subsection (1)(a) of this section, assault in the third degree is a Class D felony.

https://apps.legislature.ky.gov/law/statutes/statute.aspx?id=53982

For what it's worth, I think the newspapers are misreporting the charges. Kentucky seems to bundle assaults against "protected victims" (including peace officers) into s.508.025 - Assault in the third degree. Second degree assault on police isn't mentioned in the state penal code. The assumption would be for the higher level of assault (second degree), the fact that the victim was a police officer would be an aggravating factor in sentencing?

You ever have someone unexpectedly reach into your window to grab you while driving, as it allegedly happened? He probably just panicked momentarily.

Also, Scottie seems to have been unaware that he was actually a full-on police officer, as he had the bright yellow reflective jacket on.

He seems to have confused them with a volunteer type "traffic marshal" or something. I may not be wording that well, but I'm basically saying… he might not have recognized he was a full-on police officer.

It was dark, early, and confusing.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
