On February 21, 2019, NFL defensive tackle Barry Cofield pleaded no contest to charges of ‘DUI causing damage or injury’ and possession of heroin — both stemming from an off-the-wall incident that took place July 3, 2018.
On that date, Cofield was found passed out in the driver’s seat of his Cadillac Escalade. The Caddy was stopped… in the middle of the Interstate 4 off-ramp for West Lake Mary Blvd. The vehicle was still running, and Cofield’s foot was resting on the brake.
After several minutes trying to wake Cofield, officers eventually succeeded — and the former Giants draft pick promptly drove off, initiating a well-below-the-speed-limit pursuit in which Cofield swerved all over the road and side-swiped a car before finally pulling up to a gated community.
As the gate swung open, a deputy managed to pull his cruiser in front of Cofield’s Escalade, blocking him in. Not to be outdone, the once-300+ pound footballer simply drove into the passenger side of the cruiser. Genius.
Deputies ordered Cofield out of his vehicle but the guy would not comply. Just as a window smash was initiated, Cofield lumbered out and was arrested. Although he refused all sobriety testing, Cofield reeked of alcohol and had a bunch of heroin in his pocket to boot. He was arrested, cited for a variety of crimes, and released.
This exclusive footage – apparently captured on a 1990s webcam – shows Barry Cofield accepting a plea deal in Seminole County Adult Drug Court, after which it shows a public reprimand received by that court’s judge.
Enjoy!

You don’t need to apologize for the reupload! Technology sucks! I love your videos! Sending subscriber love from Wyoming!
Is there any reason to believe that this judge is reading a script and not actually doing her job?
Me: yes
Judge is kinda hot.
I clicked on this video because it's title was split into two lines so the top line said "NFL Defensive Tackle Barry", and I thought "They spelled Tackleberry's name wrong".
I'm not pleased with the minimum. This is just a slap on the wrist for him
tackle berry is from police academy
The wealthy rarely are punished by the courts
do all cops carry stop sticks? If so, a good idea would be to throw them under the tires before waking someone up.
Did he take a knee while he was driving drunk?

I love the mini-Cofield in the corner ✅✅
I love when city or state officials get pulled over for DUI, and the first words out of their mouth is" Do you know who I am"?
As a Florida resident, I appreciate when you show our officers or elected officials accountable for their actions. Thank you.
2019 and the court is still using VHS quality video equipment from the 80's.
Why do so many of the uploads from this channel get uploaded 2x in one day? I have notifications telling me the same video is uploaded, then again an hour later.
People think it is all about minorities like the media would love you to think, but it always has been and always will be the rich against the poor. Thousands of years of history back up this fact. If your rich you never, ever pay for crimes like the poor do. Of course he got by with this, he has millions of dollars. Wake up people.
Stand up guy taking in the pooper.
Public reprimand over not mentioning a speeding ticket. But I've saw videos of judges getting arrested for drunk driving but most of the time nothing is ever said or done about them. I know I've never seen a public reprimand against them. Wonder why?

Holy shit. He might actually be two feet taller than his attorney.
Is this an auction or a court proceeding? Slow down judge.
