"I'm a very clean, thoroughbred, white girl."

A young South Carolina woman named Lauren Cutshaw gave a whole list of reasons why she shouldn't face charges for drunk driving, possession of J, and speeding.

Including these.

And, if those were not convincing enough reasons to let her walk on multiple misdemeanor charges, Cutshaw closed with these classics:

“I'm a very clean, thoroughbred, white girl.”
“I'm a white, clean girl.”

When a cop asked "what that had to do with anything," Cutshaw reportedly replied, “You’re a cop, you should know what that means.” She added, "You're a cop, you should know based on the people that come in this room."
