Bodycam Video Shows DA In Upstate New York Refusing To Stop When Caught Speeding

An upstate New York district attorney recently refused to stop her car after a police officer attempts to pull her over for speeding, bodycam video obtained by a local TV station appears to show.

The incident involving Monroe County District Attorney Sandra Doorley happened April 23, but the video was not obtained and released until Friday.

Officer attempts to pull over Doorley for going 55 mph in a 30-mph zone. She instead drives home, calling the chief of police to complain on the way, and once met by officers in her driveway attempts to wield her position to evade responsibility for the offense.

“I didn’t want to pull over on Phillips Road. I just figured I’d pull up to my driveway,” Doorley tells an officer, prompting him to say that’s not her choice during a lawful traffic stop, according to the footage obtained by WHAM-TV.

“I made it my choice,” Doorley responds.

Doorley released a statement a day prior to the bodycam footage’s release in which she accepted responsibility for her actions and admitted to pleading guilty to speeding in a municipal court on Tuesday.
