Federal Drug Prosecutor Offers Business Card to Cops in DUI Crash Arrest: Bodycam Footage Reveals

TL;DR Summary
Bodycam footage shows Joseph Ruddy, a federal drug prosecutor, offering his U.S. Justice Department business card to police officers during a DUI hit-and-run arrest in Florida. Ruddy, who appeared heavily intoxicated, allegedly attempted to use his position to mitigate the consequences of the crash. Despite being charged, he remained on the job for two months before being pulled off pending criminal cases. The case has been referred to the Office of Inspector General, and an investigation will likely focus on whether Ruddy improperly used his public office for personal gain.
