Centerville, IL — On Thursday, Darius Hinkle’s one-year-old daughter—like so many other children do every year—grabbed a penny and put it in her mouth. While most parents are able to remove the loose change from their child’s mouth before anything bad happens, Hinkle was unable to do so and his daughter started to choke. His first reaction was to get her to the hospital as soon as possible.
Hinkle—like so many other folks who cannot afford to pay exorbitant fines that target the poor—did not have a valid driver’s license when he got in the car to drive his daughter to the hospital. However, no one in their right mind would sit by and let their daughter choke to death because their driver’s license is invalid. So, Hinkle made the split second decision to break the law and drive his daughter to the hospital anyway.
“The first thing in my mind was to get her to the hospital,” Hinkle said.
Because time was of the utmost importance, Hinkle exceeded the speed limit to get his daughter to the hospital as soon as possible. Naturally, he was quickly targeted for revenue collection by police.
Not caring about the fact that police were targeting him for revenue collection, and only caring about his daughter’s life, Hinkle did not stop for the cops. So, more and more cops started in on the chase.
According to Hinkle, by the time he got to the hospital, more than a handful of police officers from multiple agencies were behind him. When Hinkle and his wife Donecia Pittman finally arrived at the hospital, they were told to put their hands in the air as cops held them at gunpoint.
“I just told them that our daughter is choking,” Pittman said. But she says cops were only concerned with arresting Hinkle.............https://thefreethoughtproject.com/dad-arrested-bailed-out-hospital/
