Drivers: Officers Profiling Specific Cars For Searches

November 3, 2013




ATLANTA —


A Channel 2 Action News investigation has uncovered a new kind of profiling that could leave you sitting on the side of the road while officers search your car.


Four families, an attorney, and even an officer told investigative reporter Jodie Fleischer that officers are violating drivers’ rights based on the type of cars they drive.


“It was bumper-to-bumper traffic. Blue lights pulled up behind me. We pulled over. First thing I thought was, they have the wrong person,” Shenita Hampton said.


She and her husband were driving in Gwinnett County when they were pulled over by DeKalb County police officers, including a K-9 unit. Hampton says she was made to wait outside in the rain for more than 30 minutes.


“They searched the vehicle. They didn’t find anything. They damaged the birthday cake that was in the car,” Hampton said. “Never apologized, it just was a nightmare.”


She says the K-9 left several scratches and dog hair all over her car. An officer wrote her a ticket for ‘driving too fast for conditions’ but a judge dismissed the case.
