'A woman who said a Texas state trooper sexually assaulted her could face charges herself, after body cam video released by Texas Department of Public Safety shows no evidence of officer misconduct.
Sherita Dixon-Cole accused DPS trooper Daniel Hubbard of “forcefully groping” her in a sexual assault inside and outside of his cruiser during a traffic stop last weekend. Her claims were shared more than 50,000 times online, thanks to posts by Dixon-Cole’s attorney Lee Merritt and social activist Shaun King.
Merritt said his office had been retained to represent Dixon-Cole for a civil rights violation arising from sexual assault allegations she had made regarding Hubbard and the activities that followed during the arrest.
During the traffic stop, Hubbard arrested Dixon-Cole for driving while intoxicated. She was taken to the Ellis County jail and charged with DWI. In the two-hour video, Hubbard approaches the vehicle, asks Dixon-Cole why she didn't stop sooner after he turned on his lights, administered field sobriety tests and determined she was intoxicated. None of the allegations can be seen.'
