REAL POLICE BODYCAM footage captures the tense confrontation between Hinsdale police and a combative woman who repeatedly refuses to exit her vehicle during a DUI stop. This bodycam video documents the critical moments before the situation escalated to assault charges. In this police bodycam footage, officers attempt to place 46-year-old Shawn Mullarkey under arrest after stopping her at her home following reports of an intoxicated driver. The officer clearly states: "You're under arrest," establishing the legal detention. Mullarkey immediately defies this, responding: "No I am not." This exchange, captured on bodycam, repeats as the officer confirms "Yes you are," and Mullarkey again counters "No I am not," setting the tone for the confrontational interaction. The tension escalates as Mullarkey demands: "Get your hands off of me. Open this garage door. Excuse me. Let go." This series of commands, recorded clearly on police bodycam, demonstrates her active resistance to lawful detention. The officer maintains professionalism, directing her: "No, you get your hands off of me. No. Get out of the car now." When compliance isn't achieved, the officer issues a clear warning: "I will tase you if you don't get out of the car." This threat of necessary force, captured on bodycam, indicates the seriousness of her continued resistance. Mullarkey continues her defiance: "You better take your hands off of me right now. Let go." The physical struggle intensifies with the officer directing: "Get your hands off of me. Let go. Stop." The officer reiterates the legal detention: "I told you you're under arrest. Get out of the car." When Mullarkey questions "Why? Why?" the officer provides clear justification: "Because you have a warrant and you're wanted for domestic battery," revealing additional legal grounds beyond the suspected DUI for taking her into custody. According to court records, this 2022 incident in Hinsdale, Illinois ultimately led to Mullarkey pleading guilty to aggravated driving under the influence of alcohol, aggravated assault to a peace officer, and resisting or obstructing a police officer. As part of her plea agreement, she was required to comply with the DuPage County Mental Illness Court Alternative Program and serve probation. This police bodycam footage captures the critical escalation point where verbal resistance transitions toward physical confrontation, demonstrating the challenges officers face when subjects refuse to comply with lawful commands during DUI stops.
