Suspected DUI driver plows into armed Oklahoma cop, sings 'Jesus Loves Me,' declares 'I'm God, b---h

Suspected DUI driver plows into armed Oklahoma cop, sings 'Jesus Loves Me,' declares 'I'm God, b---h!'
BY Meg Wagner / NEW YORK DAILY NEWS /

A suspected Oklahoma DUI driver plowed a stolen SUV into a cop and his squad car, called herself God as she was Tased and sang Christian hymns while handcuffed — a bizarre saga captured on officers' body cameras.

Stacey Ann Bunsey, 41, drove into Sand Springs Officer James Matthew Stacy Friday during a police chase through the Tulsa suburb before she braked in a ditch and popped out of the car’s sunroof, police said.

“I’m God, b---h! Welcome to hell!” Bunsey yelled while smiling and waving at the officers who swarmed the SUV

Stacy — who fired two shots at Bunsey before she crashed into his squad car — was not injured in the wreck and quickly joined his fellow officers to help take the suspect into custody.

Cops go through this every day, all across the Nation. I personally know some good cops right now, and have known some in other states most of my life. I've also known some bad cops.

I already know that there are going to be people on here saying "if she had been a POC, she would have been shot as soon as her head poked out AFTER she rammed the cop car. To them I say "I can understand where you're coming from, and WHY you believe that, but as it stands right now, we will never know. Note that the officer DID fire 2 shots at her as she was bearing down on him!"

Peace,

Ghost

19 years, 1 month, 11 days and counting!

I told my own kids when they were 15 - 16 years old that if they were going to do *anything*, I'd rather see them light up a joint than to pick up a beer. They are 22 & 23 now, and neither of them drink at all.

Peace,

biker bars in Miami & Hollywood Florida, and plain ol' stupid "hold my beer and watch *THIS SHIT*", it's a wonder I'm still alive! I've been cut, stabbed, shot, & had bar stools and pool cues broken over my head and back.

Those days are long passed though. Now, I am just trying to live out my days as a peaceful old hippie, tucked away in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains in East Tennessee.

Congratulations to you, Warren, and keep up the good fight against the bottle!

Peace,

Ghost

Back in the day of "Cops" and "World's Wildest Police Videos" we were dependent on dashboard cameras, security-camera footage, and Fox camera crews. Now.... man, it could be a bonanza. Like Russian dashboard camera videos on YouTube.

cams disguised as rearview mirrors and dome lights. I just set up a new (to me) computer that my cousin gave me, so I don't have the link in my favorites right now. A quick Google search turned these up at WalMart (I know, I know) : http://www.walmart.com/ip/44703717?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0&adid=22222222227031996316&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=61112971376&wl4=&wl5=pla&wl6=108504174536&veh=sem

I'll look for the other source tomorrow some time when I get the chance. I'm going to be tied up for a while, but will do my best to remember. I recommend them for EVERYONE! Who knows *when* you will *need* it, but could also be useful for insurance claims, and you never know *what* you will catch on it. Who knows? You *could* win some money from one of those 'funniest home video" shows, or capture evidence crucial to a criminal investigation!

Peace,

"Attempted vehicular homicide". Add "Felony" on the front of those charges and "on a LEO" on the back, and you're pretty much toast!

Apparently, after being booked, she admitted that she "did a line of ice."
