DALLAS -- E-mails and pictures circulating the Internet tell the tale of a Dallas woman's bloody run-in with police after a roller-skating outing escalated into an arrest with excessive force, but officers and some witnesses Monday told a different story.
The incident happened early Saturday morning in Deep Ellum after police attempted to speak with Michelle Metzinger, 25, who, according to a police report, was intoxicated and weaving through traffic on roller skates.
Images: The Arrest & Other Slideshows
The pictures that stemmed from the events that followed are dramatic. They show an officer arresting Metzinger. Her face is covered in blood and there is a puddle of blood on the sidewalk.
"Very excessive. Uncalled for, you know. We're talking about a 250-pound guy and a 100-pound girl. It was just over the top," witness "D.C." said. "All I saw were her feet in the air and disappearing behind a cop car."
However, Dallas police and other witnesses tell a totally different story.
They said Metzinger was drunk and that she not only ignored officers who asked her to stop skating in the street, but also shouted profanities.
According to reports, an officer then tried to arrest Metzinger for public intoxication.
She resisted and attacked the officer, Lt. Rick Watson said.
"The officer attempted to turn her around, at which time the suspect then reached up and grabbed the officer's -- right part of his face -- trying to gouge the officer's eye," Watson said.
Despite the interest that the story has generated online and in the media, Metzinger said she would not comment on the incident until she had consulted with a lawyer.
Metzinger also had not filed a complaint report, so Dallas police were not conducting an internal investigation.
When I worked concert security and someone got bloodied, it was always proper for us to "get our stories straight." Or, as Eddie Murphy said in that movie, "You were lying your asses off." That LT is a lying piece of shit and so is the black cop who LIED in his report.
I'll tell you one thing for certain, this bastard needs to be caught and given a damn hard ball-batting. And then a WHITE magic marker taken to his forehead and the words BAD COP inscribed thereon. What was done was brutal, inexcusable and unjustified.

#248. To: Neil McIver (#232)
Neil, Yes, I doubt that her drunken rollerskating girlfriend would say a word against her. Good point. Next you will tell me that the girl who swung at the cop would have a different story as well. You are brilliant!
Again, for Tom, this is just using the photos ALONE as evidence. There is NO way to PROVE (that is big word, but it is important) how she got cut based upon the PHOTOS alone. You could argue that the girl, who was on rollerskates, fell to the ground because she was drunk just as easily as you could argue any other reason she was cut on the face. The photos do NOT tell you how she got cut, they just tell us that she had blood on her face. Hell, they don't even show us that it is HER blood, you can't see the cut. I have seen fights were people are bloody and they are not cut, they just have someone else's blood on them. The cop was cut as well, the blood on the ground could be his. I did not "write" a statement for the police, I gave the officer a verbal statement, and he took my name, address and phone number. Again, that commentary was based on what could be descerned on the photos alone, not on how she got cut. She got cut shortly after she attacked the police officer, who correctly took her to the ground and put her in cuffs.
Neil, I spoke with the officers at the scene when I gave my statement. I was THERE, idiot. I know what she was charged with because I asked.
BTP, She was on ROLLERSKATES, so her footing was not the best. Shouldn't start a fight with the police when you are drunk and on skates. Your professional opinion does not come into play as you were not a witness to the event and are only responding to hearsay. Sorry
Neil, stating that I am sick of drunks on the street does not discredit my testimony at all. The behavior that got her arrested was drunken. But the reason that she went to jail was not her drunken conduct, it was her violent behavior. Or are you in favor of violent behavior towards the police? In which case, you would be disqualified because you are prejudiced.
Neil, She has no chance of winning a civil suit. She assaulted a policeman who used minimal restraint to subdue her. She was on skates and she naturally lost her balance when the officer tried to subdue her after she attacked him, resulting in her hitting the ground. He did not try to mete out any "street justice," he simply put the cuffs on her. Oh, and Neil, the officer's record was made public by every news story in town, but then again, I would not expect you to be anywhere near the facts of the case.
This was in my inbox tonight. I have only been on for a day, and thsi is the only thread I have commented on, yet I have a supporter who took the time to write me. I am sure you will simply attack him instead of looking at his very valid comments. "Date: Jan 19 8:11:35 PM From: markm0722 To: Richard Subject: Re: (Dallas) Police Deny Excessive Force In Bloody Arrest (black cop, white girl) Most seem willing to judge the police officer, who also happens to be an American citizen and therefore has rights, based on photos of blood and hearsay. I find that very disturbing, especially on a forum which prides itself on freedom and liberty. Maybe we should just form a lynch mob first and ask questions later. At least know that somebody out there agrees with your points." He makes some VERY good points.
Now that I'm dragged in I might just as well elaborate on the points I agree with. First, I can't tell much from looking at the pictures. I can say the picture where his knee is on her neck doesn't look good but I do not know the circumstances leading up to that point nor can I determine them from looking at the photos. It is possible she was beaten. It is also possible she was not beaten. Second, my imagination can come up with plenty of ways that the injuries could have happened when a police officer tries to subdue someone wearing roller skates, especially if that person is under the influence and/or resists. My imagination can also come up with plenty of ways that the officer inflicted the wounds. My imagination isn't worth anything here though and I refuse to use it to fill in the missing blanks. Third, I don't see how her weight is much of a factor. If, and this is a big if, she did attempt to go for his eyes and/or kick him with her skates (as reported here, not that I necessarily believe that version, another story claims the officer was treated for scratches on his face and bruises to his shins, we'll see if that holds up) I can certainly imagine how the results of that might play out, once again in more ways than one. Further, I have a parrot that weighs less than 1 pound. I'm fairly confident a 100 pound woman could do at least as much damage as it could, as scary as that might sound to any of you bird owners. My girlfriend very much respects the damage output of the bird after once mimicking what she thought were playful sounds while he was sitting on her shoulder. Fourth, the face does bleed quite easily. At one point in my life I had an 80 pound German Shepherd attached to mine for a few moments. 2 wounds (one bite) not much more than 1 inch each provided enough blood to cover both my hands completely and it just kept on coming. It took 78 stitches. (Bleeding of the head or face, The head, scalp, and face have many blood vessels close to the surface of the skin, and even small cuts may bleed profusely.) Most importantly, I was not there. I only know what I read and see, which isn't much. I don't know what happened so why would I wish to immediately lay blame? And to repeat, isn't that how lynch mobs are/were formed? Blame first, hang, don't bother asking questions later? Richard, it does bother me that you say she got what she deserved. You are entitled to your opinion of course but it certainly doesn't help your version of the story. If the police officer had any part in helping her get what you claim "she deserved", that's another story altogether. Generally, would a witness who thinks she's getting what she deserves be willing to overlook a few things? That being said, I'm sure that there are also witnesses who would only be able to see police brutality in the hopes that he would get what "he deserves".

one time on a crowded street in Tempe AZ on a weekend night when the crowds were out at bars I saw the police chase and arrest a fellow. The police first called to him, then he began to run, he ran for maybe 15 feet, then he stopped put his hands behind his head ready to be arrested and waited for the police to catch him, when the police reached him they shoved him immediately to the pavement face down, then three men stood on top of him, he offered no resistance whatsoever. The three police officers stood side by side, each man with two feet directly on top of this individual's body. I think they wanted him to protest so they could punish him further. Then I heard people in the crowd cheer the police. Richard is like one of those guys cheering the police under these conditions.
Nor were most of those on this thread who nonetheless have strong but not well- informed opinions. Well said, Mark.
Tom, You are free to believe what you will. Remember, I dont' care about your opinion. The police at the scene seemed to feel my comments were worthwhile enough to record, and I care about that.
Tom, She was angry... and drunk. The officer was not ashamed, he was simply telling her to step back. So you were one for two.
the situation wasn't funny, but your wording there is. :P good post.
Red, I was there and saw a civilian attack a police officer. Her weight and his race never entered into my mind, though surprisingly it matters quite a lot to many of you. What I saw was a police officer being attacked by Michelle in the course of doing his duty. I did not cheer for either party, I found the whole thing rather sad. It was sad that Michelle allowed herself to get that drunk. It made me sad that she would be so disrespectful to a man who was paid to do the job he was doing. It made me sad to see that she thought so little of the police that she would attack a police officer. It made me sad that the officer had to subdue her and take her away - when if she had behaved herself she would have received a ticket and been released. And it made me sad to see the people on the street get upset at the officer for doing his job and NOT get upset at Michelle for attacking the policeman. There was nothing to cheer about, Tom.
From where I'm standing what you are saying is only heresay and nothing more. And damn right my professional opinion counts. What would you know about it anyway? I've worked with and known more good cops than you will EVER have the pleasure of in your short and misdirected life. OK, wiseguy, you claim to have been there. You claim the girl took a swing at the cop. Another witness claims nothing of the sort happened. What took place between the time of the photo that shows her with her hands on the car and the other witness saying her feet were up over her head as the cop took her down? And don't leave out what the cop was doing at the time. If she was just in line for a ticket, there is no reason for her to have gone off on the cop. If she was under arrest (actually she was a victim of a detainment arrest, but we will leave the semantics aside for now) she would have been cuffed at that point. But we do not see the cop near her as he would have to be under thsoe circumstances. Quite frankly, your whole story stinks to high heaven. You come on here pontificating about how she "broke the law" but you don't expound on it. I think you are full of shit.

Well, mark, I agree with what you say. And the part above is another reason that Richard is biased. Of course he doesn't see it that way. As I've said before, in my own professional experience it looks as if the cop went overboard and used excessive force. And I've had to deal with plenty of drunks inmy time. They are much easier to deal with and usually require less effort (unless they happen to be on PCP). Have either of you ever had the pleasure of jumping into and breaking up a drunken brawl before it gets out of hand? Well, I've done it and without drawing one drop of blood in the process. I can say that the cop in the photo is clearly using excessive force to subdue the girl. The results may even have been worse than what we see. It's just pure luck that it wasn't. Bones break easily at times and there are numerous ways to incapicitate and even come close to crippling people, as I've seen happen in instances of excessive force. Oh, yes, I've had to thump a few at times, and even put people down to get them under control. I've done it to a few big boys who were lean and mean and wrapped a few up tight as a drum without having to do it as well. If that girl got out of control, the cop allowed it to happen. In other words, he did NOT have control of the situation. That is inexcusable from a professional standpoint. She most certainly looks in control from the first photo with her hands on the car. So, clearly, there is something that may have provoked this; something the cop did or didn't do. Oh, Richard, the fact that this cop only has three write ups in his jacket really doesn't mean much. Lots of people get roughed up by the PD and just go on and do not make the complaints they should be making. This jerk is caught on film this time and he is going to have to pay the fiddler.

You know, Red, that brings something to mind from the past. One night at the venue I was working my supervisor was out in front and there was a drunk who had been ejected and was told to leave the are in front of the building. He did not do so and contrinued to harangue people and make inflammatory remarks to the guys on the crew, one of which was my boss. After this provocation, he was told he was going to jail and proceeded to go off on my boss who summarily put him on the ground and stood on him so that he couldn't move. And, yes, he was struggling. An unmarked car pulled up to take him into custody and the cop got out and told this guy, "If you try to get up I'm going to kick you right in the head." Then my supervisor moved off of him so the cop could cuff him and the guy tried to get up. Well, what do you think happened? He did have a fair warning. But once was sufficient to make him compliant. ;0)

You are free to think what you want. I was there when this incident occurred, and whether or not you believe that is immaterial. Your pseudo-professional opinion does not matter here. To answer your question about "What took place between the time of the photo that shows her with her hands on the car and the other witness saying her feet were up over her head as the cop took her down? And don't leave out what the cop was doing at the time. " The suspect was directed to put her hands on the car. She took her hands off the car and began communicating with people on the sidewalk. She was directed by the officer to put her hands back on the vehicle but did not comply. The officer came over to reposition her back with her hands on the car. When he went to touch her, she reacted violently and resisted. I agree with you completely... there WAS no reason for her to have gone off on the cop. Sadly, she was drunk off her ass and did not think that one through completely. Had she simply listened to the officer and accepted the citation, none of this would have happened. As for why the photos don't show you the officer where you feel he should be when YOU say he should be there... well, too bad. The poice were dealing with a mob situation. The moment that he stopped her and was giving her the citation, the crowd descended and was quite unruly. A lot more people could have easily gone to jail that night for obstruction, but did not. The only thing Michelle was a "victim" of was her own stupidity, BTP. She did break the law, BTP, and I have talked about that the whole time.
You can say the cop used excessive force if you like, but you are incorrect. You were not there, you are talking out of your ass. I am sure you are used to that. "She certainly looks in control from the photos" ROFLMAO!!! We saw this girl 45 minutes earlier on Main Street skating with her friend. She fell down TWICE in a 5 minute span, and this girl is a PROFESSIONAL ROLLERSKATER. Oh boy, was she ever in control! She was drunk as a skunk.
You are an absolute fruitcake!
BTW: I have a better name for the software .... Microsoft Internet Exploder. You said: This is what I was asking about. You've got inside info on her past criminal history? From all you've said, I'd say you are a cop and you know this cop personally, and you are on PR patrol right now trying to save your buddy's butt.
BTW: I have a better name for the software .... Microsoft Internet Exploder. Once again... to clarify for you... that was based on the photos alone....
At the time, that is what I was told she would be charged with by the officers at the scene. However... If you read most of the reports, you could find for yourself that she was charged with those things. She will surely be convicted, and those will be entered into evidence if she presses a civil suit. I don't know Officer Gordon personally, sorry. I am also not trying to "Save" anyone, I'm just telling what I saw. Also, there is no "magic information link" here. I just know how to read better than you do.

It taints it and any jury should consider your bias with your testimony. 'nough said. Disqualified for what? I may well be biased myself, and if so, a jury would be correct in taking my bias into consideration had I been there and seen the events and given testimony. There's nothing wrong with being biased. It's just when you lie and claim you are not, as you are, THAT'S where there's a problem. When I first asked if you considered yourself a neutral witness, I already knew the answer. My reason for asking was only to find out how honest you are. Turns out you are not honest at all. In insisting you are a fair witness here you've proven to me you are a liar, and THAT does taint your testimony more than your bias alone does. Bias + liar = totally discredited testimony.
BTW: I have a better name for the software .... Microsoft Internet Exploder. Oh, and so you don't ask again, I am not a cop, nor do I work for the DPD or the City of Dallas. I am just a citizen, like you. Unlike you, I was at the scene and have a first hand point of view.
And your opinion is hardly psuedo-anything. You haven't got any idea who you are dealing with here or what my personal and professional experience might be. So your opinion that I am pseudo-professional is all busllshit! BLOW IT OUT YOUR ASS BOZO. Neil is right about one thing, you refuse to even give a hint of what your job description is when asked politely. So that leads me to believe you are indeed an agent provocateur here on PR work to save the cop that got caught using excessive force on film. You dance around and evade and use bluff and bluster putting your own brand of spin on your responses. I have more productive things to do than to run around trying to refute your circumlocution. Have a nice day, or don't! ;0)

Her conduct was violent, not drunken. Insisting that I am a fair not make me a liar, and it is clear that you have never been around a jury pool in your life.

You don't have to be an attorney to sit on a jury. In fact, it's better if juries have no attornies on them, as juries are representative of the voice of the people, not the courts. If you care, go and read my first comments on this thread. I try to be fair and my first comments should give evidence of that, if not prove it outright. I never claimed to be there or know all the facts. What irritates me is when a fruitcake comes on board who is bias as all get out and yet claims not to be. You ARE biased here and until you admit it, I consider you a liar and therefore don't care what you say. I'll believe you only when an honest witness says the same thing. Because you'd lied here on this thread about your neutrality, your testimony isn't worth crap, and it doesn't even matter if it's 100% accurate. I didn't ask if you were honest. I asked if you were neutral, and you are not.
Are you an attorney?
If not, how can you speak with any credibilty about what a jury would or would not do in any given situation?

You dont have to be an attorney to sit on a jury. You DO have to be an attorney to understand that the selection process for jurors is very complex. Not just anyone gets to be on a jury. Also, to say that juries are better with no attornies on them is an incredibly UNFAIR and BIASED statement, as MOST attornies do not represent the courts, the represent their clients. Neil, we ALL have biases. Mine do not obstruct my point of view as an eyewitness in this instance. Are you going to sit there and tell me that her drunken buddies DON'T have a bias against the police, or that YOU don't have a bias against the police? You said you were FAIR, but you CLEARLY have a bias against the police. As for my testimony, well, fortunatley for all of us, your opinion of it is worth absolutely nothing. I have not lied about my neutrality here. Neil, I am at least as fair and neutral as you are in this matter. Neil,

FYI, I have a Pacer account and I did a US Party/Case Search of all courts (Texas, 5th Circuit, District & Appellate, Civil & Criminal) for any records involving "Metzinger, Michelle" and there were *no criminal records* and no civil records either. Texas courts are included in the ECF/PACER system and if the records are under her name, they ought to show up. But there were no hits. There was only a Chapter 7 filing for a different METZINGER, in a South Dakota BK court in 1992. So, Richard, as you claim to know about these convictions of record which don't seem to be in the system, would you kindly correct any misspelling I might have in her name or otherwise cite the court and docket numbers wherein the records show Michelle Metzinger has prior convictions for "public intoxication, resisting arrest, and assauting a police officer"?
Especially with the convictions for public intoxication, resisting arrest, and assauting a police officer on her record going into that trial
