Cops don't charge people they simple arrest them.


Eh, they arrest you for the alleged charges. The DA decides to pursue the charges.

For teh purposes of this discussion, the cops are the ones who came up with teh obviously trumped up charges. No way the DA follows through actually charging Scottie with a felony.

Statement from Scottie Scheffler’s Louisville attorney, Steve Romines:



In the early hours of the morning in advance of his tee time Scottie was going to the course to begin his pre round preparation. Due to the combination of event traffic and a traffic fatality in the area it was a very chaotic situation He was proceeding as directed by another traffic officer and driving a marked player’s vehicle with credentials visible. In the confusion,Scottie is alleged to have disregarded a different officer’s traffic signals resulting in these charges. Multiple eyewitnesses have confirmed that he did not do anything wrong but was simply proceeding as directed. He stopped immediately upon being directed to and never at any point assaulted any officer with his vehicle. We will litigate this matter as needed and he will be completely exonerated. “
