Missouri

Motorists followed by an unmarked car with flashing police-style lights are often told to activate their flashing emergency lights and wait for the nearest well-lit area before pulling over. An attractive young female motorist who followed this advice found herself held at gunpoint, handcuffed and searched by real police officers in Greene County, Missouri last week. Just before 2:40am on June 5, twenty-two-year-old Vanessa Kimery passed through one of the state’s many speed traps. An unmarked police cruiser pulled behind her vehicle and activated its lights. Kimery immediately put on her flashers and slowed to acknowledge the vehicle behind. She then drove less than a mile to the nearest well-lit area, a convenience store parking lot. For this, Kimery was ordered out of the car at gunpoint and surrounded by three police deputies.

Kimery had feared that the unmarked car may have been driven by a police impersonator. Exactly one year ago, two women were attacked in Howell County by by a man driving a Ford Crown Victoria with red-and-blue lights mounted on the dash. Several other states have similar problems with robbers and rapists taking advantage of police use of unmarked cars to trap their victims on dark, rural roads.

This woman did exactly the right thing. Automatically pulling over for an unmarked car is way too risky. The cops owe her an apology.

    This video has a very misleading title, i don’t see any guns drawn.

    Even before the officers approached the car she had her hands up and waited to get handcuffed.

    The officers did absolutely the right thing in this situation!

    Something very useful share will I, just to be.. a very nice guy. Basically, I have found a free money source. This is a coded page with a secret password (that I will show you) right now. Basically, this is a no-brainer way to make some money. Please feel free to pass this information on, since I don’t know how long the password will continue to work. For the password, use the word “five”.
