Reese goes to pieces in arrest video
An Atlanta police officer’s squad car dashboard video of the April 19 arrest of actress Reese Witherspoon was publicly released by authorities Friday, and it proves to be even more captivating than her Oscar-winning turn in “Walk the Line.”
Her Southern drawl in full effect, Witherspoon expresses outrage to the police officer who had asked her to stay in the car after he performed field sobriety tests on her husband, Hollywood agent Jim Toth.
“I have to obey your orders?” an outraged Witherspoon tells the officer. “No, sir, I do not! You’re harassing me as an American citizen,” Witherspoon said. She later added “I’m obstructing your justice? Really? I’m being anti-American? Wow.”
The police officer maintains a professional demeanor at all times, even trying to help a handcuffed Witherspoon ease her way into the back of a squad car. “Sit your butt first, it’ll be a lot easier on you,” he tells her.
Witherspoon pleaded no contest Friday and paid a $100 fine. — Kara Spak
