I drove past it shortly before the police officer stopped. It looked like a deer had been gutted along the road, pretty much like any other road in Indiana...dead deer everywhere...

Ok blame the police for this horrid scene. They can npt be everywhere. If you want a cop to be everywhere you are then become one. Stop complaining about them pulling people for speeding. Slow down and do th espeed limit, not 10 mph over. You did the crime so do the time and stop whinning about it.
