TN Police Video Released Of DeSantis Motorcade Crash

Could this be called leaving the scene of a crime?  Hit and run?  Remember his campaign is using state employees with no reimbursement, meaning the taxpayer is paying for his travel and costs.  Also the new laws in Florida prevent the news or the public from knowing DeathSantis travel or who is paying for it.   Hugs

Click Orlando reports:

“If this ain’t a full-blown (expletive) disaster,” a Chattanooga police officer can be heard saying as he surveyed the wrecked vehicles in DeSantis’s motorcade. The video, which was provided to News 6 by the Chattanooga Police Department through a public record request, shows three of the four wrecked SUVs.

The vehicle that was carrying DeSantis at the time of the crash, a white GMC Yukon, had been driven away from the crash site before the first Chattanooga police officer with a body-worn video camera arrived at the scene about 24 minutes after the collision, records show.

“(DeSantis) already left the scene. They got him out of here as soon as it happened,” the police officer said to an unidentified person over the phone. “At least we didn’t kill anybody,” a Florida Department of Law Enforcement agent escorting the governor said, according to a conversation captured on police video.

Meatball left the scene of the accident. But enough about Florida.

I will stick with DeathSentence, because of what he did to the people in the State of Florida with Covid, when he HID the Death Tallies and became an Anti-vaxxer…. including passing LAWS in the State, so people did not have to get vaccinated to keep their jobs!

“If this ain’t a full-blown (expletive) disaster,” the officer said. It was unclear if she was referring to the wrecked vehicles or to the DeSantis campaign in general.

Fleeing the scene of an accident he was involved in. I think that might be a crime.

Two possible exceptions might be if someone was injured and they were taking them to the nearest hospital or the Tennessee highway police who were there authorized them to leave (the THP isn’t saying according to the article).

I will however note that if this was a presidential motorcade or foreign head of state/government or someone under Secret Service protection, they would likely have hightailed it out of there in case this was step one of an ambush. They would contact the local police and make arrangements for necessary interviews.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. – A dog that ran onto a Tennessee interstate is believed to be responsible for triggering a chain-reaction vehicle crash that damaged four SUVs being used to carry Governor Ron DeSantis to a presidential campaign event last week, according to police video obtained by News 6.

I hope the dog’s okay.

  1. SMH. It generally is a crime to leave the scene of an accident if one is involved, though that varies by state law. It’s dishonorable to leave, especially if one doesn’t know if someone is hurt, I say judgmentally (after what I wrote in the next post.) Seems as if they’d want to make sure he’s located securely but not too far away, just to cover bases. It’s difficult not to say that he expected/took for himself special treatment because of who he thinks he is. Also said judgmentally. sigh I’m human.
