In the words of Officer Kevin Jerome, the guy who will never live this down for the rest of his career:
“On 07/05/2019 at approximately 1101 hours, I was driving a fully marked Ferndale Police vehicle P60. I was dispatched to 9 Mile and Woodward to meet a male who just had his luggage stolen by a taxi driver. I parked my patrol vehicle in a parking spot in front of Como’s (22812 Woodward) and exited my vehicle. My emergency lights were not activated. I spoke to Austin Wooten who was standing near the bus stop in front of Como’s. I had several conversations with Wooten regarding the unknown taxi company that drove him to 9 Mile and Woodward.
I entered and exited my patrol vehicle several times throughout the course of my interaction with Wooten. The last time I exited my vehicle I advised Wooten on the incident being a civil matter. As I was explaining several things to Wooten, a male that was also at the bus stop turned to me and said “Hey, someone is getting into your vehicle.”
I turned toward my patrol vehicle and started to run towards my vehicle. I observed an African American female with a white t-shirt, later identified as Destiny Talora Hawkins, in the drivers seat. I was several feet away from my patrol vehicle as the driver sped north on Woodward. I immediately notified dispatch that an unknown subject just drove away in my patrol vehicle and gave dispatch a description and direction.
I walked back to Ferndale PD where I took patrol vehicle 66 and started traveling towards the pursuit. I was receiving radio updates that the vehicle crashed at 7 Mile/ Stoepel and they had one subject in custody. Upon my arrival to that area, Hawkins was already in custody and several other vehicles were struck. I stood by and took no action. I returned to FPD with Detective Goebel.”
The body-worn camera footage is priceless and will be published separately. Enjoy!

2:07 Hey wtf?!?! That's me in the blue shirt! I remember that day too. We were wondering why she almost ran us over. She had no sirens or lights on, we thought she was a drunk cop lol. Guess now I know what happened. F'in CRAZY! We could have gotten ran over!!!
It was her Destiny to get busted…..
Yup. Blasting some shit ass music was a real good reason to stop.
How on Earth did she only receive a 180-day jail sentence for this??
What an idiot. Why didn't you publish the picture of the woman?
Why the hell does the person at 0:36 get out of a car and straight onto the bus that pulls in behind them?
Freaking idiot. I wanna know what she got for this
definitely thinking she was in a music video
Man can't have Shit in Detroit!
Dumbass is lucky she didn’t kill someone!
Those guys crossing the road are so lucky they didn’t get crush. They need to look at the road no matter what the light is.
Just curious …. Don't they have GPS in police cars? And where is the helicopter assistance ?
im glad she spared that mans life in the black truck at the end
that was not a 83 mph crash
5:58 song name?
Hawkins pleaded guilty to the charges in July. She was given credit for 41 days served when she was sentenced by Judge Phyllis McMillen.
In addition to 180 days in jail, Hawkins will serve two years of probation, and she must pay $36,439.80 in restitution, avoid any assaultive or threatening behavior, participate in mental health treatment, and not use or possess any firearm or deadly weapon. Only 180 days? I would have got 20 years if did this. And she will never be able to pay back the money. Don't you think she should go to prison for this?
That’s why I don’t go past evergreen 🙈😂😂😂
8:49 loveeee, loveeee, loveeee, love and affection.
5:58 my favorite part
When she stops to turn on rap music I'm confused because I didn't know police cars had normal radios
She in the car like which button is the siren…the horn will have due…she really told them to calm down like you just didnt take a whole police car 🤣😂..you had time to escape too all them stops smh🤦â€â™‚ï¸ðŸ¤·â€â™‚ï¸ ….while arrested can you plug my phone up so i can finish listening to my playlist my part was coming up lol😂
why the hell does she say OH NO 1:32 lol
8:39 am I crazy or does somebody run a red right in front of the middle cop ?? lucky they had something else to worry about
Wow she's going to be paying for that one for a long long while
Those people at 2:15 😂😂🤣 “wtf is this cop doingâ€
Isn’t she fantastically stupid?
im genuinely curious about who pays for thew damages? is it the city? the ladies insurance? the lady herself? between the damage to the power pole and the tahoe that got totaled. the police car totaled and the two damged vehicle thats over $100,000 easy
15:03 we got help on the way for you (starservice).
No need to worry lmao
8:31 future was the only good option
me in GTA
And right there is the perfect reason why cops should not be allowed to leave their keys in their cruisers is for shit like that right there
What's the song at the beginning of this?
Did she really just say, I'm a girl?
Maybe it was her "destiny"
Hey are you ok ?- Hawkins : yes I am ok . Officer 👮â€â™€ï¸ get the fuck out of there lol 😂 epic 😂😂
Gotta at least run the lights and sirens…dang make it worth it..lol
“Are you okâ€
