DANE COUNTY, Wis. (WFRV) – The Dane County Sheriff's Office is facing backlash on social media after a video showed a female driver being forcibly removed from her vehicle. Deputies, however, are defending their actions, saying the video doesn't provide the full context of the incident. Details released on Ripon basketball coach accused of sexual misconduct with a student "We are aware of a video circulating on social media showing a traffic stop by sheriff's office deputies. The video, filmed by a backseat passenger, shows the female driver being forcibly removed from the vehicle. At first glance, this may seem aggressive, but the video doesn't tell the whole story," the sheriff's office said in a statement on social media. The incident occurred on Friday, November 8, 2024, at about 9:00 p.m. when a deputy conducted a traffic stop on U.S. Highway 12 near Rodney Road in the town of Christiana. The vehicle, carrying four people, was unregistered, and the license plate did not match the vehicle. When the deputy approached the driver, 22-year-old Dashiae Williams of Cambridge, it was discovered she did not have a valid driver's license and was driving without insurance. At one point, authorities say Williams attempted to drive away by putting the vehicle in reverse, but deputies had already deployed tire deflation devices in front of her passenger-side tires. Williams reportedly refused the deputy’s orders to exit the vehicle and continued to be verbally combative. This led to the deputy physically removing her from the SUV. According to authorities, Williams resisted arrest, prompting the use of a Taser before she was taken into custody. She was booked in the Dane County Jail on charges of resisting and obstructing. Williams also received citations for operating without a license, driving without insurance, driving an unregistered vehicle, and displaying an unauthorized license plate. The sheriff's office said its policy includes an internal review whenever a deputy responds to resistance, to ensure the level of force used was appropriate.

"But a traffic stop can escalate quickly if the driver and passengers are not cooperative, which makes it unsafe for the officer and the occupants of the vehicle. Enforcing traffic laws is about more than just following rules; it’s about protecting lives and ensuring safer roads for everyone. Cell phone videos on social media of police interactions typically don't show the full picture, which is why we aim to provide the complete context." No additional details were provided.
