My wife has kissed me in front of Studio Police, CA and she wasn't handcuffed. So why did they handcuff and detain Daniele Watts for kissing her boyfriend? Watts' husband, Brian Lucas, who is white, answered the question on Facebook:
Today, Daniele Watts & I were accosted by police officers after showing our affection publicly.
From the questions that he asked me as D was already on her phone with her dad, I could tell that whoever called on us (including the officers), saw a tatted RAWKer white boy and a hot bootie shorted black girl and thought we were a HO (prostitute) & a TRICK (client). This is something that happened to her and her father when she was 16. What an assumption to make!!!
Because of my past experience with the law, I gave him my ID knowing we did nothing wrong and when they asked D for hers, she refused to give it because they had no right to do so. So they handcuffed her and threw her roughly into the back of the cop car until they could figure out who she was. In the process of handcuffing her, they cut her wrist, which was truly NOT COOL!!!

Sorry, but the good intentions of this story overpowered clarity. There's confusion between "boyfriend" and "husband", still not clear on who was who. I thought there were two characters, husband and wife. Also, its not "news" to report what you think was in the mind of the cops (presumption of probability is not OK). We are a world of hype media in which opinion and "fact" blend inextricably. And this from someone (me) very easily prone to cop bashing. The point about cop intrusiveness should be made better. Maybe the story was too short!

In a police audio of the incident obtained by TMZ, Daniele Watts is heard accusing the police of racism when Sgt. Jim Parker asks her for ID. She then tells cops that they don't who she is before storming off, refusing to show her ID.
