How many people offered a mea culpa after the facts came out?

Spoiler

none

 

[BigDug13]

I know who Kerry Washington is, and i know it's not her.
The gesture was just fitting to the post i was quoting.

First post has Jamie Foxx, who also isn't directly relevant to the story.

Sorry, wasn't sure. I've seen her picture plastered in other forums with disgusted ramblings by the posters who used it, as if they thought she was the actress who got arrested.

So some people are confusing the two for some reason.

 

[ZoddGutts]

bet she pulls that face for the judge.

Will she pull the racist card too?

 

[Aselith]

Will she pull the racist card too?

"I serve love and peace....you serve judgementalism!"

 

[Rest]

I hate people like her because she knew fully well about the issues the police were having in the US at the point of her arrest and she used the blame/race card perfectly.

Just look at the comments of the first few pages of the other thread. Almost everyone instantly believed her without knowing the full story.

smh

I wasn't able to follow that last thread to its conclusion, is there a digest of what happened or an article from later on that explains everything?

ugly criers are the worst-

 

[Snkfanatic]

Be nice to live in a world where people noticed this and just moved on or enjoyed the show as they intended.

What....no. Just no.

 

[BeatResetsTheWorld]

Wrong actress.

This isn't the only place I've seen Kerry Washington's picture thrown up when referring to this story. Hopefully it isn't widespread the misinformation that she was the one arrested for lewd conduct and not Daniele Watts

Is this a joke...Look at what she's doing in teh gif

 

[Kinyou]

ugly criers are the worst-

There are sexy criers?

 

[Pickman]

There are sexy criers?

 

[Dash27]

Yeah, I was going to say, this sounds familiar.

Other thread

That thread was very interesting. I forget the original title but it was framed for maximum emotional impact. "Cop handcuffs Jango actress and accuses her of being a prostitute for kissing white boyfriend!!!" or something like that. Agree or disagree you can't argue how effective it is.

 

[Indrid Cold1]

Haha. Outstanding.

Sentenced to community service and judge said her apology letter was insincere

Justice was done here. I feel safer already.

Here are the letters.

LA Times article has a little bit more information

Parker said he was ordered to attend an LAPD disciplinary hearing after he was accused of insubordination for speaking to the media about the incident. He retired instead, ending his 26-year career with the LAPD in June.

The former sergeant said he felt the judge's actions were appropriate, saying Watts made a "childish attempt at the blame game."

"I think this whole incident backfired on her because I recorded it. It would be a totally different discussion had my recording not been made," he said. "In 26 years, a call like that has not blown up into anything of this nature."

Justice was done here. I heel safer already.

I say we punish people for having sex anywhere. Personally the mere thought of people doing that icky stuff at all disturbs my peace.

All sex havers should stop their sex having this instant.

 

[JDSN]

Ah, the lady whose case people never stop linking to, glad the cops got that on tape.

apology letters for having sex.

Apology letter for being a world class bitch claiming officers were racist and targeting her because she was black

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

Ah, the lady whose case people never stop linking to, glad the cops got that on tape.

you know people have that thread bookmarked to make themselves feel better when a case of actual police misconduct is posted. And yes, recording things makes it better for everyone

 

[Aselith]

apology letters for having sex.

Bro, he was going to tell her to move along and she went ballistic. He was trying to be nice about telling her bto stop fucking in a parking lot.

yoooooooooooooo



THAT'S her apology?


and she only got community service?

 

[lifeexpectancy]

I can imagine nothing but high fives from everyone in jail for this. What are you in for? Banging this hot actress. lol.

Hot? Can I have what you're smoking? Different strokes I guess.

OT: Too bad she already established a history of trying to twist the situation in her favor. Will probably make this one harder to wiggle out of.
