As Predicted
Attorneys for a pregnant woman who was shocked by a stun gun during a dispute with police in the parking lot of a Far South Side Walgreens filed a lawsuit in federal court today.
Tiffany Rent, 30 and eight months pregnant, said a Chicago police officer used a Taser on her last week after she tore up a ticket in the parking lot of a Walgreens in the 10300 block of South Michigan Avenue in the Roseland neighborhood.
Police say the officer warned Rent he would use the stun gun if she drove away after tearing up the ticket, throwing it at his face and yelling, "You ain't arresting (expletive)." The officer fired the stun gun as she put her SUV into gear, according to a police report.
Assault, battery if actual contact was made with the litter, resistance, escape, general assholery. Oh wait, that last one isn't a charge. She's made statements admitting to part of the behavior so there isn't any reason to doubt the rest of it.
The doctors over at the Slum Times also cover this:
- Rent, who is visibly pregnant, said the officer showed a “lack of concern” toward her.
And this:
- One of her attorneys, Keenan Saulter, said no matter what his client did during the dispute with the officer, he should not have responded with physical harm in what they contend was solely a verbal dispute over Rent having her car in a handicapped parking spot.

The city will settle this one like most out of court. Pay the asshole off and get rid of her is the answer the city has.
Disgusting ghetto dog ass. Couldn't even tell the bitch is pregnant. It just looks like she devoured her fair share of Flamin' Hot Cheetos.
I laughed when I read she went to several hospitals after this happened. What a piece of crap.
Ah hahahahaha! Wonderful woman. We're all, we're all very fond of her. Very free-spirited.

Just your typical disrespecting ghetto mutt your honor.
Is her atorney in any way related to an alderman ?
Since she was sitting in the SUV how is it that she is "visibly" pregnant and not just another "fat" one.
This enrages me. And these "people", used loosely, wonder why. What apiece of shit. I hope the judge tosses this out. I hope the officer did this by the book. I hope she crawls back to her shitty life with $0.00 from the city. Savages.
Ride the lightening!!!!!!!!!!
Umm these people have babies in jail all the time ...yeah I said it... LIFM
Buffapotumus!!
Article says she was "concerned for her unborn son" Yep, her behavior sure shows that! lol
Let me get this strait.She pulls into a parking lot and immediatley pulls into a handicapped parking space.Her "fiance" of the month runs into Walgreens for some batteries.She is issued a ticket because she is more important than anyone else that took the time to park legally.She kicks into her she was disrespected mode.She tears up the ticket and throws it at the officer.She was told not to pull away ,yet she still attempted to.She was then "stunned" back to reality.Her and her POS attorney should be fined if this case if it is thrown out for contributing to this everyday inner city nonsense. Not a cop.
look for more of this to happen, theres nothing new under the sun. monkey see, monkey do. her attitude explains all you need to know. the law is meaning less to her cause she is pg. if theres any justice after she gets her dough, someone will take it away. then she will have to call the police for justice. we will do our very best to find culprit.lol

Nopt true. I got sued in Federal Court and the City hired outside counsel for me. The case was tossed before any trial.
Asshole appealed and I am waiting for appellate decision. Likely outcome is to affirm lower court judgement.
City never made any settlement offer. I am glad of that and totally good with the work of the lawyers, including the Corp Counsel who handled the appeal.
Now when the appeal court rules, if it is in my favor, City will go after asshole to recover costs of defending this ridiculous lawsuit.
I got sued right after Jody Weiss got the City to fight cases and not to settle automatically.
The best thing, if appeal court affirms, asshole's lawyer makes zero for three years of working on a BS lawsuit and his client gets a bill for City's costs.
Seriously doubt they will take it to the SCOTUS.
She got herself a shithead lawyer. The city needs to fight it!
I wish I could be on that jury!
She wouldn't get a rusty penny from me!
Da Pelon
I hope they settle then she can swing by my store and get some sounds and rims for her ride.
I would like to see what she looks like a year from now. Most likely she will look the same and not be pregnant.
"One of her attorneys, Keenan Saulter, said no matter what his client did during the dispute with the officer, he should not have responded with physical harm"
This is the excuse?
In a society where the Rule of Law existed she wouldn't even be allowed to file a case. But here in the Entitled States, it will be settled out of court with a fat payoff of taxpayers money.
I bet this rat has not made one trip to get an ultrasound, taken any prenatal vitamins, quit smoking her newport 100's, or stopped sippin' on Wild Irish Rose since discovering she was pregnant. Now that there's $$ in her eyes, her main concern is her poor little unborn child. Disgusting.
just wait until the baby is born and they find all types of things wrong with it--- the baby, rumored to be named tazoretta, will be a party to the lawsuit....
Hey Rahm, don't even consider settling this one. Fight that savage until the end, I don't want that worthless parasite to collect 1 cent.
Rent was seated between her two lawyers and her exact words were, "He [the officer] didn't show no lack of concern." The Ghetto Slum-Times cleaned it up for her.
Thank you Tribune for highlighting the REAL heroes in society! You know, the lawbreaking, motherfuck the police waste to society types.
let me be the first to say it......why the fuck would you tase anyone over a parker? unless the offender was throwing punches, there is no justification. i support the officer, but i think he will be punished in the end for over-reacting.....and yes, i am a cop...30 yrs. in the ghetto.
Another dog ass enters the ghetto lottery !
Animals, plain and simple...... I know it sounds wrong but facts are facts. Those ghetto infested species are out of control. Shit my dog has better common sense than most I see in the ghettos. Better living quarters, better diet, wow...... My animal lives better than these people. Funny.
"ooooooh my bay-bay finna go ta collage, y'all tazed him!" I heard this sow looked like she was about 300 pounds anyway, "visibly pregnant" my ass, visibly on a diet of flaming hot Cheetos and grape pop. Now since the kid will be born with some sort of retardation she'll blame it on the taser, not the fact that she smoked and drank every day of her pregnancy and god knows what else. Ghetto lottery!!! These are the type of people and their "culture" is exactly what is wrong with society and this this country. May god help the USA and especially the city of Chicago.
As a tax payer I DEMAND the City not settle this nonsense. No more hand outs. I guarantee I'm already paying for her in some "assistance" form, and I'll be paying for her kid from womb to tomb. Enough already!
Can't wait for the video to be released. If she was acting like an animal, hopefully at least she would be publicly ridiculed and humiliated.
Resulting in (probable) pregnancy, unprotected heterosexual sex is a freewill choice.
Unlike Tiffany, the police officer is blameless, because he was obeying the law(s).
Quit talking about the parking ticket already: she was actively resisting an arrest. Period. Both the law and Department policy allow an active resister to be Tasered. Would she have preferred that the officer wrestle her to the ground after resisting the arrest? Done, over.
as a registered nurse since 1974...can honestly say she looked morbidly obese in the original photos and clearly not wearing maternity clothes. She won't win her civil case if rational medical folks like me are on the jury if it went forward. I as a life time Chicagoan have seen this ghetto lottery too much and presume she nor the sperm donor work for a living. Would like to be wrong on that last line, but seriously doubt it. So no harm to infant unless born with the typical drug/alcohol syndrome. Guess we will be paying one way or the other until cradle to grave payments to people who will not work are no longer covered for life. Sorry the cop will be forced to defend his lawful arrest over and over. The laws regarding use of force are very clear. He did no harm. T.H R.N/BSN
Rent, who is visibly pregnant, said the officer showed a “lack of concern” toward her.
Poor whiddle baby
Don't give her a dime!! In the press photos she was seen being held up by family members as if she was permanently injured. Someone is faking it! How can she afford a lawsuit anyways? The city always pays out. They just need to stop paying out. Sorry, but being pregnant doesn't exempt you from following the law.
Looks like the Rent will be paid on time as will her bottom feeders
Being pregnant isn't a handicap. If she parked like everyone else, this all wouldn't have happened. Course, if the officer hadn't got so upset that she ripped up *her* ticket, then this wouldn't have happened either.
But now we (meaning everybody else) can pay for the mistakes of these two idiots.
She's just another ghetto queen type who we all deal with day in day out. We are all too familiar with the ghetto mentality that exhibits no respect for the police, the community, neighbors, property, or themselves. I'll bet in 15 years her child will have a criminal record. It's an seemingly endless cycle with these brutish, uneducated, welfare dependent, semi-drug or alcohol addicted fools. I'll bet the city pays her big time for her criminal behavior. Hopefully she wil then relocate far away from the city.
Bitch.
As broke as this damn city is, I hope she doesn't get a cent. If she does, imagine the avalanche of ticket tear-uppers to come....
--No Cop Here
I hope the city fights this one.. The officer should demand his day in court. !!! What a over feed, uneducated, sloth of a person!!!
Hope that ticket was really worth all this mess. really. her Fantasia wannabe ass is now playing the victim to police misconduct. and if you think the city is going to make her pay that ticket guess again. will wait and see if these fools don't say u guhnnna tayze me! at very parker we do.
Hey boys & girls, I bet her kids are future CB's
And that my friends is job security!!! HA HA

I am tired of paying for it. Us"citizens taxpayers have one or two kids we can support, but these asses have as many as they have baby daddies and we get stuck footing the bill. Medical, housing, LINK. Maybe China is onto something regarding population control?
Bam! A year's supply of Popeye's Chicken!!
Do you know why this happened? A POLICEMAN DID A STUPID THING AND TOOK THE INCIDENT PERSONALLY. Write the ticket, let her tear it up who the fuck cares. Enough tickets and her car gets booted, ain't that better then getting sued? Now she has a golden ticket and some poor cop takes a chance on being involved in a civil suit
I saw her picture yesterday, she didn't appear pregnant, just fat.
tase me baby!....I need the money!
SHOW ME THE MONEY BITCH!
The city will offer her $7K and she'll take it and get half.
End of story.

I think if she gets any money, since she is supported by the government and doesn't have any costs associated with her bullshit concern or 'injury', she should have to turn it over to the government that raised her and will raise her useless ghetto spawn....whew! Long sentence!
I work in the ghetto. And at every burglary I've ever handled, the residents have no less than a 47" HD TV. Usually 3 of them. And furs! Lots of furs. And at least 10 pairs of Nike shoes.

I completely agree. Time on the job will teach you things that are too hard to explain here. Combine experience with maturity and levelheadedness and you can handle just about any situation in life...even the "crazy tough shit" (sarcasm) like some ghetto beast ripping up a ticket while getting mouthy. This is what happens when you have too much college and not enough high school on the job. I believe it's what us dinosaurs call hairgels on the job. If you're gonna let some little shit like that escalate, then you're in the wrong profession. Pick and choose your battles, simple as that. This battle had "Loser" written all over It from the beginning and should have been handled entirely differently. And allow me to stop the "don't talk shit you weren't there" before it even starts.....been there, done that all over the Southside for 26 years now. Grow up, frat boys. And save the throwing-down for when it's time to throw down.
I didn't know Precious was pregnant.

Ok "dinosaur" you are the same do nothing goof that will immediately berate this same officer for getting punked out if he had walked away.
You would have been the first in line to say how soft the hairgel was for not doing anything.
Here's some advice. go hide in your hole again until your retire. You are doing no one any good.
yeah i'm sure back in your day you would have smacked her around and 19p and gotten away with it.
Me thinks you have a case of too much time not enough real street experience.

Absolutely wrong. Stop giving bad advice. Yes our use of force "guidlines" allow tasers to be used for active resisters.
However, there is no "law" on use of force. A criminal and civil court does not care about our use of force guidelines. A jury can decide based on all of the evidence if force was excessive.
Being within our department guidelines does not necessarily put us within the law in all cases. However, as long as we follow the guidelines and our training the city indemnifies us and defends us.
These Mt. Greenwood clown's on here are a joke!
At the end of the day, she someone mother etc!!! And why the fuck are you given tickets on private property? Hello!
(OT) I just moved into the Garfield Ridge area,live on the 5300 Block of Nagle,last night my house was hit with eggs, I also understand many other homes were hit, I know the coppers on 811 do a great job,hey 008 district commander you walked the other night from the 008th district to 63rd and Campbell for a meeting how about putting a couple of tact cars out this way? maybe you should take a walk you know where the people actually pay taxes!!!
You better watch what you do out there. See the way the media is all over this? The cop is the bad guy. Avoid confrontations . Keep your cool. You can lose everything .
Tazoretta!! Now thats funny! C thats y its just easier to check off with zeros!!
Not being there and with 20 years on, I would have written her another ticket and moved on. Fuck her. it's not whats right, it's what it LOOKS like and Shiticago looks like shit. My guess, $20,000 in damages.
just wait until the baby is born and they find all types of things wrong with it--- the baby, rumored to be named tazoretta, will be a party to the lawsuit....
6/15/2012 08:29:00 AM
I love it... Tazoretta. Too freakin funny. I, literally, did laugh out loud.
(OT) I just moved to into the Garcia Ridge area, live half a mile from the worlds largest sewage treatment plant, and last night some coppers kid threw eggs at my double-wide...
She was overheard talking to a friend. She believed this encounter would give her child super powers, and that he would become some kind of hero. She was trying to figure out a name for him, something like Lightning Man.
I want to send a huge THANK YOU to the officer responsible for tasing that woman.
THANK YOU.
First, thank you for respecting the handicapped citizens of Chicago. She should NOT have pulled into any spot for the handicapped. I see people pull into those spots and run into stores and even the gym. Their audacity disgusts me. Thank you for respecting handicapped citizens enough to write that ticket.
Second, this sends a message to pregnant women too. I understand you didn't know she was pregnant--I mean, who would? She looks simply fat. But, indeed, she felt as if she could pull into a handicapped spot. Pregnant women are NOT handicapped and shouldn't be treated as such. Pregnant women should walk, run, and exercise. During my pregnancy, I ran a half marathon. I was not handicapped and therefore, did not deserve special treatment. Actually, for the health of my son, I preferred to park further away and walk a bit extra. Thank you for sending that message--although it was unintentional.
Third, thanks for standing your ground. I can't stand when certain citizens feel they are entitled or can be held to different standards. Everyone should be treated fairly and equally--following the same laws as everyone else. You held her to that standard. She failed--not you. Thank you for sending a message to Chicago--we all are responsible for following the laws.
Forth, you should have tased her. Thank you for that. If you felt you'd even get a simple scratch, you didn't deserve that, and you needed to do it. Again, the woman did not follow the rules. We have laws in place and law enforcement officers in place so that chaos doesn't ensue. You simply held her to th ecorrect standard and protected yourself. Good for you. Thank you for doing that. That demonstrates to me, as a woman, that you respect women and don't treat us as if we're less than men. You held her to the same standard. THANK YOU.
Her actions disgust me. I seriously hope she gets nothing for this and I also hope that her lawyer loses money over this. Absolutely disgusting.
Again, thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you for respecting the handicapped, the law, the citizens of Chicago, pregnant women and women in general.
Thank you.
Back the Mutt instead of the officer. thats why this department is screwed!

No, you are a goof. Listen and listen good dummy; don't take things personally, do your job, if someone on purpose tries to instigate matters then don't fall for it. Be the better person. There is a time and place to go hands on. When the idiot ripped up the ticket and threw it at him then fine. Let her act a fool. She still has to pay the ticket. And for you idiots who say "oh when she ripped off the ticket and threw it at him that was agg batt to po" you are wrong. I work in a ghetto district and I have five years on the job. In my first two years I would love to escalate things or let things escalate. Now I am more mature. I can handle just about anything; but put your fucking hands on me or my partner or attempt to physically harm me and it's on! I am prepared (I know hap kido and mma and know a lot of joint locks).

Better to have simply air mailed her the ticket for parking in a handicapped spot. What is that now, $150? $200?
Was it worth it to make it to the front page of the papers? "Active Resister" "Lawful Arrest" "Use of force guidelines" Federal lawsuit, headlines, ghetto lottery ticket.
Jesus, it was a lard ass shithead bitch doing what they do! Over a parking ticket! Years ago we learned that there are way to make them pay. Better to smile and walk away and let her get the bill from the city. Now it will cost the city many times the cost of the parking ticket and the cop gets untold aggravation. Over a parking ticket. If you don't know by now how the beast will react it is time to learn.
If they are ignorant enough to park in a handicapped spot does anyone think they will politely say "yes sir officer, I won't do it again officer"
In a district somewhere in the big city there was a blackboard and if a plate went up on the blackboard that plate got air mailed parkers until the board was erased. Who gets the last laugh? Come on, develop some more advanced policing skills.

You heard it here first. The name is going to be Cirquitta Amperes Rent. It's French. Her street name is going to be Tingles.
Slum Times letters to the editor in Monday's edition: A citizen from Lincoln Park actually wrote that it was the ghettopotomous' fault and she was responsible for her own actions in front of her kids!!! Actually supported the police!! UNFUCKING BELIEVABLE!! Just when ya lose faith that the citizens don't give a shit ya get a surprise!!! Thanks.
