Journalist Colleen Campbell called work at PHL 17 to tell her boss why she was unable to come to work. [It is unknown whether she told her boss she was in jail.] Ms. Campbell was surprised to discover she was fired.

There was video. “Video, what video”? She protested.

In the aftermath of the still rolling out consequences she is now sharing feelings of being “ruined”; sound familiar.

Here’s the video. (Warning, salty language alert):

[The police officer showed a remarkable amount of restraint. God Bless our police.]

Terrible behavior you say? ….Oh, but it gets worse.

(PhillyMag.Com) According to a police statement about the incident, shortly after the calm, cool, and collected cop who responded to the scene led her away in cuffs and the video stopped, Campbell, a recent Temple University graduate, allegedly assaulted him. Police say that she kicked him repeatedly and also kicked the doors and windows of a police car.

Police say that there are additional charges pending against Campbell, including simple assault, terroristic threats, hindering apprehension, and failure to disperse.

Two of the charges Campbell faces are third-degree felonies. She has been released on her own recognizance, meaning she didn’t have to fork over any bail money. (read more)
