Dallas Police Officer Makes Death Even Worse
By Lynn Zinser
As if having your mother-in-law dying of breast cancer was not painful enough, Houston running back Ryan Moats had it made worse by a Dallas police officer who stopped him for running a red light near the hospital, would not listen to his pleas about the circumstances, drew his gun, threatened to arrest him and kept Moats in the parking lot while his mother-in-law died.
The officer, Robert Powell, was put on administrative leave on Thursday and Dallas Police Chief David Kunkle apologized to Moats and his family. “His behavior, in my opinion, did not exhibit the common sense, the discretion, the compassion that we expect our officers to exhibit,” Kunkle told The Associated Press.
Moats’s wife, Tamishia, ignored Powell and ran into the hospital anyway. She arrived at her mother’s bedside just as 45-year-old Jonetta Collinsworth died.
The incident was captured on a 16-minute video, courtesy of Powell’s in-dash video recorder.
What a tool.
