Felony charges have been dropped against a Florida woman after a cellphone tape of her arrest sharply contradicted two police officers' version of events, The Miami Herald reports.

HEAR: The tape of the altercation

The incident unfolded in October when the two Coral Springs officers came upon an SUV stopped in the left lane of a roadway, apparently with two blown tires.

The newspaper says prosecutors are now investigating whether the officers filed false documents relating to the encounter.

None of this would be questioned, The Herald says, if the 60-year-old driver, Susan Mait, hadn't dropped her phone on the floor of her SUV when cops yanked her from the vehicle. She was on the phone at the time with a Geico service rep who, per company policy, was recording the conversation.

The audiotape depicts a starkly different scene from what officers Nicole Stasnek and Derek Fernandes declared in their official reports and told the court under oath.

Here's how The Herald describes the two versions:

The recording catches Stasnek cursing out Mait (although the officer later denied it), giving no advance warning that Mait was about to be cuffed for resisting arrest (although the officer testified that she had done so three times), and later hashing out a plan with her fellow officer to make sure their stories jibed (they did).

Later in the recording, while Mait is heard sobbing in the background, the officers are recorded discussing what had happened:

Fernandes: "I didn't hear anything you said. I was in the back of the car." Stasnek: "I did drop the F-bomb." Fernandes, laughing: "I didn't hear that. In my [internal affairs] statement, I didn't hear that. ... Don't worry, I will put everything that I witness before on everything she said."

After the altercation, Mait was jailed on charges of felony obstruction and DUI, allegedly from drugs.

The DUI charge was dropped, however, after a toxicology test showed her using only a antidepressant. The resisting charge was reduced to a misdemeanor.
