Two Traffic Officers Handcuffed a Young Woman for No Reason—Then They Reached Into Her Pocket and Realized Who They Had Just Arrested

For that, they needed the officers themselves.

Grant and Miller were placed on administrative leave while the investigation continued.

Initially, both denied wrongdoing.

They claimed Victoria had been acting suspiciously.

They said they believed she might be connected to a stolen  vehicle investigation.

But dispatch records contradicted them.

There was no stolen vehicle alert.

No suspicious vehicle report.

No reason to stop her.

Then federal investigators found the text messages.

On the morning of the traffic stop, Grant had received a message from an unknown number.

It read:

She’s leaving the meeting. Delay her. Do not let her reach the contact.
