During the traffic stop, Bucci berated the East Greenwich police officer.

 

Bucci said to the officer:

Why are you embarrassing me?

You know who I am, though, right?

I think this is abuse.

How old are you?

You’re recording this right to embarrass me online.

Do you want me to get caught? What are you doing?

I am going to tell you what, my nephew is law enforcement, my uncle is law enforcement. You want to embarrass me. I am an old lady.

After the officer asked Bucci if she was willing to conduct a walk and turn test, she said: “Not really, but I will do it for your entertainment only.”

Bucci continued: 

I hope I don’t raise a kid like you.

If I was a black human…I feel bad for the people who are not in my position.

Call my husband and call the Attorney General [Peter Neronha] and everyone else in town.

This is disgusting

If I was a black person I would be arrested.

You’re a dick. You’re a loser. How old are you?

I hope they arrest your mother, too. You’re gross. My whole family is in law enforcement.

I F@@ken can’t stand it.

I didn’t even drink you, asshole.
