Flashback: Chief Releases Bodycam Footage After Girl Claims Cop Sexually Assaulted Her

Meet Logan Huysman, a lying, conniving and presumably spoiled 18-year-old brat from Burlington, Vermont, whose attempt to smear local cops by claiming they sexually assaulted her during an altercation late last month fell by the wayside after dashcam footage was released by the city’s police chief.
The incident unfolded early on the morning of June 22, when officers found Huysman and two of her friends passed out inside a parked vehicle that was still running, smelled of alcohol and marijuana and reportedly contained paraphernalia, including a so-called bong, according to local station WPTZ.
After a brief investigation, the officers decided to confiscate the paraphernalia and let the three girls off the hook, but as Huysman waited for her father to arrive and take her home, she voluntarily chose to act like an incorrigible little snot and was soon placed under arrest.
As if she wasn’t already in enough trouble, when she finally made it back home she rushed to Facebook to post the following spurious screed (WARNING: GRAPHIC LANGUAGE):
Bad choice, kid. Last week police chief Chief Brandon del Pozo released dashcam footage from the arrest that completely dispelled the punk kid’s shameless lies.
Watch it in full below:
For demanding that the officers reimburse her for the confiscated bong, for mocking them, for performing cartwheels, for standing on a trash can, for hurling bottles and for attacking them, this arrogant teenager received the exact punishment she deserved: arrest.
Moreover, it was clear that the officers never overstepped their bounds, as police chief del Pozo himself made clear in a statement last month.
“Huysman fought the police,” he wrote. “She is portrayed on camera video mule-kicking Sergeant Nguyen about the body, head and groin. He and Officer Lippa asked her to please stop. At no point do officers strike her, use weapons, or use force beyond controlling her assault with their empty ends.”
And to make matters, she posted false allegations to Facebook and tried to transform herself into a victim. She’s since reportedly pleaded not guilty to three misdemeanor charges, including assault on a police officer.
This young lady is now at a crossroads. Either she can continue treading down the dark path currently ahead of her or she can wake up and change course. I hope for her sake she chooses the latter option.
