CHP to Heather: You Oughta Be in Pictures

46. Why is she being brutalized while arrested? This matches no publicly announced situation for rationale.

47. I call BS! Yes, as much as we may not like it, TMZ and other gossip sites are in the business of buying candid celebrity photos, that however is not the job of a police officer! This is just wrong! I don't live in California, but I think cops have more or less the same attitude everywhere-they treat people like crap! The guy taking the picture probably thought it was hilarious, he just couldn't wait to show it around. She may have made a mistake by getting into the car impaired, but this is unfair, it's only because she is a celebrity that she is being exploited, I would try to sue if I were here. What happened to professionalism on the force? This is DISGUSTING!!!

48. I suffer from depression and anxiety. If you are not getting treated properly and the medications are not just right, you can do some pretty strange things. I feel sorry for Heather and hope that she gets the help she needs. Maybe a hospital stay will help.

49. I think it was not the best judgement for the officer to be taking pictures, but it's not a fireable offense. And just so that you know - not all police cars are equipped with cameras and recording equipment. In fact the LA Sheriffs and the LAPD only have cameras in a few specialized units, and do not have the budget for cameras in the patrol cars yet. It's other states and smaller departments that have recording equipment in all the cars.

And for the person that thinks California is not worth visiting and that all cops are pigs, we're glad your type is staying out......

50. First of all... nice ass Heather! Second of all.... she was driving in a dangerous manner putting others at risk. I could give a flying cell phone if this cop took her picture but I am glad she's off the street.

All you anti-CHP whinners get a life. If you needed the CHP and they wern't there for you, you'd be the 1st to whine.

51. Really, was it necessary to put handcuffs on her? She must weigh 105 soaking wet...what jerks!!

53. One of the "benefits" of fame is the target painted on your back and the cops who have a license to hunt. There is so much wrong with this whole arrest that it stinks even on ice. I wonder how much the PaP mafia paid for this one. As I read this all the cops can prove, and all they saw; is that she parked her car where she should not have. For that you get hancuffed and booked?

54. And what would you sue for??????? Unprofessionalism? That's not against the law.

55. EFF that BEE! She's driving around depressed and intoxicated. Since she is thumbing her nose at other peoples right to be on the road with safe, sane drivers, I flip the BIRD at her right not to be photographed will her dumbASS is being arrested.

Hey Heather, aren't you glad you didn't kill someone.

My best friends husband is a L.A. is a cop... and he does the same thing. he either takes his personal camara or he'll take pics off his phone so he could have as evidence. I dont see anything wrong with this. the officer is just trying to protect himself. Plus he did knwo there were like 100 paps there......Now on why she got arrested... that is kind of suspicious...

58. Poor Heather????????Sh was caught breaking the law--no pity from me--Save it for the people who are killed by drunks or dopers!!! She came outside doing that--anybody can take her pic---
It just amazes me the way some people will excuse everything a celebrity does. For shame!!

59. What a f*ing jerk and an abuse of power.

60. It's bad because it raises the question of "what is he going to do with the photos"? And for those of you who skimmed over it, it's nothing like a dash-cam. This is the guy's personal cell phone, and that is about as unprofessional as it gets.
