Fake Cop press release

[seagrovegirl]

Good time to remind our children - and everybody - not to stop for ANYBODY flashing them down at night. Not even if someone pulls up beside them, motioning that their tire has something wrong with it. Take the chance that there is something actually wrong with your tire and keep going.

I posted my story on Walton Uncensored and got ridiculed, but here goes...back when I was young and blonde and pretty, I went to Hardee's (now Whataburger) in DFS with my friends after class. I said goodbye and headed down dark, lonely 331 to go home. A few minutes later, a small white truck came up behind me, flashing its headlights. I thought it was my friend's boyfriend and pulled over. It wasn't him. It was a guy, exposing himself, and as he approached my car I saw he had a knife. I took off, and he FOLLOWED me. When I got to the city limits of Freeport, he turned around and went north again. I was safe, but I never forgot his face.

How SCARY!!! SN, I am so glad you sped off. We both know how easily women become prey...If I knew how to do it, I would post the creep that is still in jail sice 1976...that got a hold of me. I went to hell and back, but I am alive and mentally healthy, thank you God, and family.

Maybe this is TMI, but timely....I was 13, abducted from Ed Walline Park in Dune Allen, raped and left for dead in the woods off of 395 just N of Seagrove. I crawled about 5 miles barefoot, because he took my shoes because he didnt think Id ever see the light of day again. I made it to Seagrove and knocked on someones door at about 12AM to get help. He still had my 10 yo friend with him. Former Sherriff Quinn McMillan took me to the hospital and stayed with me until I was released. (He was a deputy then)

The warning is, if it is a stranger, dont go near him/her, especially if no one else is around. We live in a small community and we are fairly trusting. This was 33 years ago, when crime was unheard of here. The search for me was the talk of the town for a year! Please teach your children safety and caution.

Someone impersonating a cop....GRRRRRR!!!!! Dont stop for an unmarked car, ever!!! Go slowly, call 911 and get to a lighted populated area if possible. I dont think an unmarked car should be pulling anyone over!!!!! EVER. Unmarked patrolman, call in a marked car to get a speeder for gosh sakes! Or move on.

My 10 yo friend was rescued at 5AM in the creeps truck, a cop found the vehicle and cornered him at JD Miller's gas station on Hwy 98 (station no longer there).

As a side note, this creep was bad A$$, he escaped from Walton Co. jail and came looking for me, while he was at it, he did more horrible stuff to other people. So he still sits in prison away from the general population.

The purpose of writing this, is that it happens here, it happens everywhere. Be cautious and teach your kids to be cautious. And, consider personal safety, ie; gun, taser, pepper spray, martial arts, etc...and know how to use it.

I really have a big beef with the unmarked car pulling women over. That practice should stop.

I only pull over for uniformed officers in marked cars - and any law enforcement official who doesn't like it can take it up with Mama Scooterbug (seriously).

She spent decades dealing with people who had been through horrific incidents like Seagrovegirl's and there is nothing like a frantic 4 am call asking if you have pepper spray because some girl your age just got left in a dumpster to die to make the lessons stick!

The police would much rather you gave them a call to verify than have to find what is left of you in a ditch.

SGG, my knowledge of what happened to you is part of what made me cautious enough to give myself time to get away. After that incident, I was actually followed twice more on separate occasions in different areas. But I never pulled over again.

And I agree about the unmarked cars (even though Fuzz drives one in plain clothes). By and large, though, the unmarked vehicles don't pull folks over unless it is something horrifically blatant and there is not a marked unit anywhere nearby. Even then, they will not mind if you call dispatch and check up on them as they have to call in when they make a stop.
