REVEALED: Bill Bidwill Jr.'s wife was being so uncooperative with cops they had to CARRY her to the
Bill Bidwill Jr.'s wife, Nicole, was uncooperative with police officers who responded to a domestic disturbance call after she allegedly beat up the former Arizona Cardinals executive.
Nicole Bidwill was arrested and reportedly booked on one count of assault on June 10, though her husband declined to press charges.
In police bodycam footage, obtained by TMZ this week, Nicole was seen being uncooperative when cops arrived at the property before officers were forced to carry her to the police car.
As officers arrived at the scene, Bidwill's wife was seen lying face down on the hood of one of their vehicles parked in the driveway, before she was handcuffed by an officer.
It was unclear why she was there but, her head was turned to one side and her eyes appeared closed.

When asked to get down from atop the car, Nicole said: 'I just don't feel like it. I'm tired.'
An officer informed her multiple times that she needed get down from the vehicle or he would have to remove her himself, before she eventually slid down from the hood of the car.
Nicole then stood with her back to the cop as they asked for her basic personal details, including her name and date of birth, but she was initially reluctant to respond, instead informing them that her daughter was on the way.
When her daughter, who told the officers she was a defense attorney, arrived to represent Nicole, she instructed her mom not to say anything. Nicole then refused to be checked out for injuries by medics at the property.
After being informed that she was being placed under arrest, Nicole demanded to talk to the sergeant.
After being handcuffed she asked to have her water bottle fetched as she had 'taken' something that made her mouth dry before making the cops blow her nose for her twice and criticizing them for not doing it well enough.
The officers requested she walk to the police car with them multiple times, to which she refused. One cop urged her to cooperate to maintain her dignity in front of her neighbors before telling her they would ask one more time before carrying her to the vehicle.
However, she resisted cooperating once again, forcing the two officers to hoist up with an arm under each leg and carry her to the car.

In a separate snippet of bodycam footage, Bidwill spoke with officers and claimed his wife was unhappy when he wasn't home when the carpet installers arrived and reportedly beat him up - hitting him more than a hundred times - and slamming a glass over his head.
Battered and bloodied, he told one of the officers that his wife, Nicole, has 'a very bad temper,' when the officer asked what happened.
Video obtained by TMZ Sports shows Bidwill's face blurred out as the officer places a latex glove over his hand to assist his injuries.
As Bidwill sat in the back of a patrol car, he lifted a towel to his face to help clean the blood as he regained his composure and spoke to police.
As police arrived, Bidwill Jr. said 'she was very upset at me,' according to TMZ Sports.
'I'm sitting on the couch, and she's screaming at me. And I was trying to not escalate because she has a very bad temper.
He added: 'And then she started hitting me, and I just started defending myself.'
He said that his wife was upset that he wasn't home when the carpet installers arrived earlier in the day.
As he was pouring himself a drink, he said his wife 'snapped.'
He claimed she hit 'him with her hands about a hundred times' ... before she picked up his cup and cracked him with it, causing it to shatter, TMZ reported.
He told police that he struck his wife's arms in order to defend himself before he was able to get away and call 911.
During the call, Bidwill Jr. appears short of breath, as he tells the operator that he just 'had a glass broken over my head,' the news outlet reported.
He said that his neighbor, who is a surgeon, assessed his injuries and told dispatch 'he doesn't think it's bad.'

Bidwill Jr. served as vice president of the NFL team under his father's leadership. But it appears he left the Cardinals' front office when his father Bill Sr. died in 2019.
For a time, Bill Jr. helped cover ownership responsibilities, but his brother Michael now owns the team and Bill Jr. is no longer involved.
The football team has been part of the family business since 1932. Bill Sr. co-owned the team from 1962 for ten seasons with his brother Charles Jr. and was the sole owner from 1972 until his passing in 2019.
The team went to the Super Bowl in 2009.
