When asked why she failed to stop, the district attorney told the cop she 'didn't feel like stopping.'
New York Governor Kathy Hochul says she's looking into an upstate district attorney who allegedly attempted to use her office to evade a speeding ticket.Monroe County DA Sandra Doorley refused to stop after speeding, leading to a heated argument with police caught on bodycam.In a video released by Webster Police Department last Friday provided to WHAM-TV, Doorley is seen swearing at the officer and referring to her position as DA.
