Title: Cop Slams Mom’s Face to the Ground Over Tinted Plate Cover as She Dropped Her Kids Off at School

As Liz Vargas was walking her daughter into school on November 5, officer Kevin Fitzpatrick heroically swooped in to protect the citizens of Tampa from Vargas’ tinted license plate cover.

Not having done anything wrong, and upset that she was being harassed in front of her children, Vargas voiced her discontent.

“Then  because I was in my pj’s he called me bummy, and he accused me of illegal drugs, that’s why I got argumentative,” Vargas said of the incident.

Within 34 seconds of his encounter with Vargas, Fitzpatrick grabbed her wrist and had slammed the innocent woman to the ground, face first.

After being brutally assaulted in front of her child by police, Vargas retained attorney Brett Szematowicz.

“At best that could be explained away that he thought there was an officer safety issue with her pointing up at the sky, but he never said he ordered her back in the car, he never said he felt threatened by her actions at any point,” Szematowicz said.

As early as February, Szematowicz said they requested video of the incident from police, but he said they told him there was no tape.

According to WFLA,

The Tampa police department claims it never denied the video existed. In other cases it is common for officers to acknowledge there is video evidence, by writing “video” on criminal report affidavits.  Fitzpatrick put a slash mark through the “evidence box” indicating there was no evidence.  Hegarty isn’t sure why Fitzpatrick didn’t write in “video” but insists no one at T-P-D- denied that the video existed.

crto_zoneid = window.innerWidth>=990?206278:206279;

But if you watch the video, it becomes quite apparent as to why Fitzpatrick would have claimed it didn’t exist.

After repeated attempts at obtaining the video, it was finally released in July. The video clearly shows a uniformed assailant, Fitzpatrick, assault an innocent woman, Vargas.

Despite this video evidence, however, an internal ‘investigation’ into the incident cleared Fitzpatrick of any wrongdoing. Tampa police claim that Fitzpatrick had no other option to “control Vargas” other than slamming her face-first into the ground.

Szematowicz feels that the investigation is incomplete. “They left out why he was grabbing her in the first place and to us as her criminal defense attorneys that is the most critical part,” he said.

This entire ordeal was over a tinted license plate cover that can be purchased at auto parts stores throughout the state of Florida.

According to Florida Statute 316.605(1), 

“…all letters, numerals, printing, writing, and other identification marks upon the plates regarding the word “Florida,” the registration decal, and the alphanumeric designation shall be clear and distinct and free from defacement, mutilation, grease, and other obscuring matter, so that they will be plainly visible and legible at all times 100 feet from the rear or front.”

Despite the low quality of the video, we can see on the officer’s own dashcam that Vargas’ plate was legible.

The precedent set after failing to hold Fitzpatrick accountable is that police can initiate violence against citizens for no reason, even innocent mothers, in front of their children, and this is “following procedure.”

He confronted her for an unknown reason. There was no law violation to enforce. It's unknown why he approached her other than to be a jerk and break a few laws.

The plate is visible so there was no probable cause.

The license plate is clearly visible in the video, which means that the cop had no reason to confront her in the first place.

Oh - right. She failed to display her fealty to the cop by not genuflecting and licking his jack-boots.

Shall I show you case law where tinted or even clear plastic covers are still deemed to be an obstruction of the plate?

It's a valid stop... courts in every state has upheld this after someone like you challenged the citation. Your complaint shouldn't be with the cops, it should be with the law makers that wrote the law and the states highest courts that uphold the plate covers as a violation... but hating law makers and judges doesn't really help you get your sheep followers to hate cops and the "war on drugs", does it?

The license plate number was clearly visible, but once again, thank you for chiming in with another one of your badge-licking responses.

You got one thing right - the entire judicial system is corrupt.

But instead of cops doing the right thing, we have assholes like this guy who decides to harass an innocent mom for only one reason - because he can and because the criminal enterprise that employs him will exonerate him of any wrongdoing.

"Many plates found were in violation of Florida statute 320.061.

The law states in part, “A person may not apply or attach a substance, coating, covering, or other material onto or around any license plate which interferes with any feature or detail on the license plate.”

When you put any plastic cover over a plate, clear or tinted, it causes and or interferes with plate readers picking up their reflective coating. Also, tinted plate covers diminish the plates viability by the 100 yard standard, at night.

Plate covers have been appealed all the way up to the highest Florida courts... every officer on patrol knows that the stop is a legal one... perhaps you need to brush up on your CASE LAW, instead of preaching infowarrior law.

All this person had to do is take the ticket, allow the officer to do his job, show proof the cover was removed at court and he/she (I didn't watch the video) probably would have had the ticket dropped.

But no... the defendant had to do the cop-block special.

The BOR primarily shields your natural rights from intrusions on life/liberty/property by a tyrannical government. This is natural, given the tenor of the Revolution against the hated tyrant George III and the widespread suspicion of any federal government over the former colonies. The guarantees of the BOR were required before the citizens of the various colonies would ratify and support the Constitution and the new federal government.

You see the Constitution as an impediment to law enforcement. And, indeed, that is exactly what it is.

But before criminal law was and law enforcement agencies existed in the colonies or the early Republic, there was the Constitution and the guarantees of the Bill of Rights.

I might see the BOR's impede LE (like Miranda) on occasion, but I support that if what LE is doing is truly a constitutional violation.... however I've never looked at th BOR as a vehicle to conceal criminal activity or use as a crutch to constantly help criminals by SPINNING a possible, weak constitutional violation.

Is using drugs moral or immoral?

Is it right to be addicted to crqck or heroin? Is it a good choice?

If heroin and crqck were legal. What should the penalty be when you drive on the stuff and endanger others?

If the drugs you want to make legal (all of them) were to be made legal. Should society have to taqke care of people who abuse their health? Like provide them with healthcare. Wouldn't that be slavery?

So what should come frist legalizing drugs or making it so that Grandisland doesn't have to foot the bill for your druggie friends? Or druggie whoever it is that you support.

If you got your way and all drugs were legal. But Grand Island still had to pay for their health care etc. Would that be better then the system we have now?

Shoulod all drugs be legal for 5 year olds? Wouldn't it be a violaton of their right to make it so? Using the same reasoning you make in favor of drugs being legal?

Again how does legalizing drugs make us a bedtter peoploe? Because I think it would make us a lesser people. A lesser culture. A garbage culture.

I can site more case law than you could ever dream of. Officers generally keep up on the latest case law cases so they know what they can and can't do. For instance, as soon as the first officer wrote a ticket for obstructed plate in Florida, and the ticket was challenged all the way up to Florida's highest court, when the ticket was challenged, a state wide TELETYPE was sent to every agency with an ORI number, advising them of the potential problem with writing for plate covers should the states supreme or appellate courts strike the ticket down... and once the court upholds the writing of a plate cover, the agencies get another state wide TELETYPE stating the use of tinted plates IS NOT LEGAL.... and now, every cop employed in that state will stop plate covers, looking for the bigger offense. Cops live for that... and your beef isn't with the officers doing their jobs, your beef is with your states courts and law makers.

Americans who have no experience with, or knowledge of, tyranny believe that only terrorists will experience the unchecked power of the state. They will believe this until it happens to them, or their children, or their friends.

ways to twist the law to your own advantage

No officers could "twist" anything if you were more self reliant, not a sheep, and actually learned your states laws and case law. Ignorance is never a defense. Like our pathetic dysfunctional millennium generation, it's always someone's else's fault a person gets a obstructed plate ticket in Florida, besides the motorist. You are so filthy libtarded, you march lockstep with libtard America... it's always someone else's fault. lol

The constitution and BOR were written to LIMIT GOVERNMENT, not the citizens like you seem to believe.

I posted this about the BOR's...

"It was crafted to constrain the government."

You might wanna do some studying. That's exactly why the BOR's was put in place.

If you got your way and all drugs were legal. But Grand Island still had to pay for their health care etc. Would that be better then the system we have now?

You're an idiot if you feel our founding fathers intended the BOR's to help criminals get away with crimes.

The BOR recognized our natural rights long before the various criminal laws were enacted by Congress or state legislatures. Until the last century, for instance, we had almost no federal criminal statutes.

Federal smederal. Why is it that someone always brings up federal... on a thread about a state law being violated? 99 times out of 100, Deckard is bitching about a state law being enforced that isn't even close to being unconstitutional... like driving with a tinted plate cover on a public funded public road with public passed V&T laws.

I realize the BOR's was put in place before any of our states laws... that doesn't mean it was put in place to help citizens break future or existing laws.

The communitarian/authoritarian: -- you and the agenda drug lovers use the constitution to help MASK criminal activity that you don't feel should be criminal.

Bullshit. -- We patriots use the constitution to help UNMASK criminal/ unconstitutional activity that you communitarians INSIST should be criminal.

AKA -- Is using drugs moral or immoral?

We are at liberty to use drugs for both moral and immoral activities. If those activities harm others, they could be criminal.

Is it right to be addicted to crqck or heroin? Is it a good choice?

No

If heroin and crqck were legal. What should the penalty be when you drive on the stuff and endanger others?

DUI penalties should be the same for all intoxicating substances.

If the drugs you want to make legal (all of them) were to be made legal. Should society have to taqke care of people who abuse their health? Like provide them with healthcare. Wouldn't that be slavery?

People abuse their health by eating too much. Same principles should apply for drug abuse.

So what should come frist legalizing drugs or making it so that Grandisland doesn't have to foot the bill for your druggie friends? Or druggie whoever it is that you support.

Drugs were legal 100 years ago, before anyone 'footed the bill'. I'd say we should return to that constitutional view.

If you got your way and all drugs were legal. But Grand Island still had to pay for their health care etc. Would that be better then the system we have now?

I'd gladly trade a type of minimalistic 'universal health care' for an end to the war on drugs, guns, and liberty.

Shoulod all drugs be legal for 5 year olds? Wouldn't it be a violaton of their right to make it so? Using the same reasoning you make in favor of drugs being legal?
No. We adults have an obligation to protect children from danger.

Again how does legalizing drugs make us a bedtter peoploe?
Prohibitions create black markets and scofflaws. We'd be better off without them.
Because I think it would make us a lesser people. A lesser culture. A garbage culture.
We ARE a garbage culture, because of prohibitions, imho.

You don't have the importance to decide what's constitutional. You are a biased, tainted... nobody. McVeigh stated the same shit you do. Like you, he lacked the necessary skills to rationally think. So why would anyone allow you to decide what's constitutional?

Keep in mind that most recreational drugs that are consumed are legal and prescribed by a physician.

Abusers of illegal drugs are a small minority compared to the much larger group of legal drug abusers.

Shall I show you case law where tinted or even clear plastic covers are still deemed to be an obstruction of the plate?

It's a valid stop... courts in every state has upheld this after someone like you challenged the citation.

The plate is obscured. It appears to be angular obscurement covers designed to defeat traffic cameras shooting at a downward angle. It may be unintentional. That the plate may be read at one angle and not another does not defeat the statute.

So, let's beat the shit out of mommies that drive their kids to skool. Let's make a mockery out of common sense and reasonable policing duty by beating the snot out of a mommie to enforce the law.

Your rationalization of fact to support the pure beating of a mommie driving her kids to skool *IS* the POLICE STATE.

I'm smart enough to know she wasn't beaten for the plate cover... she was physically handled because she resisted arrest for a lawful V&T charge... and acted just like you recklessly preach.

When you can understand that people aren't manhandled because of a taillight, a plate cover or speeding, but resisting and obstructing, you'll "rationalize" like a normal thinker.

Passing blame and making excuses for criminals has been a (D) platform staple for over 75 years. Why don't you join the black lives matter movement... Hell, your pal Deckard already posts their YELLA articles. lol

Many times I've hit my head on the ground fighting with one of your friends... shit like that happens when you engage in a takedown to control a subject unwilling to be placed in custody. Sometime their heads hit the ground as well... however between the officer and the shitbirds, only one has choices... and that's the shitbirds. The officer reacts to the actions of your dysfunctional pals.

I doubt he intentionally slammed her head against the ground any more than I intentionally slammed mine when arresting a resisting turdbird... that you chronically defend.

As if cops are superior to the citizens they supposedly serve.

Yes she was resisting... she was fighting to keep her hands from being cuffed... next step is to take the person down.

How many people have you handcuffed? How many people have you handcuffed, alone, while they resisted? I've cuffed thousands. Maybe 2% resist... and I have had to take people to the ground like this. I did finally watch the video... his intent was to take her to the ground to gain control... her hitting her head on the ground is a byproduct of her RESISTING... shifting blame is a (D) party staple, libtard.

Yup.

Resisting the lawful authority of a cop who has declared you under arrest and is handcuffing you always ends in tears.
