The video may also have captured something incriminating on the officer as well....in which case....they thought it prudent not to press charges, but that doesn't mean she was totally in the right all along and now vindicated.
No one knows for sure.....
my opinion comes from how she represented her story....the officer may have been out of line (and I never said he wasn't), however, just like if you are confronted by an angry drunk (or such), it's in your (whoever's) best interest not to escalate the situation further....it's not worth it......one may 'win' the battle but lose the 'war'.
Was his supposed nastiness worth all of this? He didn't go after her initially, he just responded to her not so nicely when she wanted him to move.......but we only get one side of the story and we'll never know.
