Is it cold in here?:
Roko was acting aggressively and alarmingly. General policy aside, Clinton might have been prudent to clam up. As general policy, one recommended course of action toward police you don't trust is to bore them.
SpanielBear:
Roko didn't have her badge. Not sure what that means exactly in the US, but I'm pretty sure it'd matter.

Generally, it won't, although some judges may have a thing for it, like they did for uniform hats 30 years ago ("He was in uniform but I didn't know he was a cop because he didn't have his hat on" was popular in the '80s. It isn't anymore.) Introducing it as a defense will at best get you an eye-roll and you'll probably annoy the court for wasting time.

Yeah, these days, most things happening in court implying simple citizens could have some sort of... rights, I think it was called, get them an eye-roll from the annoyed judge. Choosing between career and justice seems to get easier everyday.

I'm pretty sure people not standing up for their rights is what allows "stop and frisk" laws to be enacted, among other things.
