I'm not making any prejudgments, either, which is why I cited both scenarios in what I said earlier (hand on handle, hand inside window). I have no personal knowledge of the facts, but I do have a couple of questions, assuming the cop's point of view: 1) what was his hand doing inside the window, and 2) how is it he got his hand out so quickly? No one said that he was actually dragged.
He has not said that he was handing a clipboard to the woman to sign a summons, or that he was getting it back (never seen a cop stick his hand inside the window to do that, by the way, they don't let go of the clipboard). He didn't say he was reaching inside the car to receive the license and registration (what happened to those, by the way?).
The Virginia State Police is nowhere near the professional organization it was when I was young. However, it's still one of the best in the world, and I think it speaks well of everyone involved that they're investigating.
