Hollywood couple stopped by police, say they were racially profiled

Hollywood actors Cherie Johnson and Dennis White say they were improperly stopped by police, put in handcuffs and harshly questioned during a recent weekend getaway in South Carolina. Johnson, best known for her roles in TV shows "Punky Brewster" and "Family Matters," and White, from the movie "Notorious," are speaking out about their treatment by a Marion County sheriff's deputy on September 22. Johnson said she had never seen cotton before and told White she wanted to take a picture. Her account is strikingly similar to what Johnson and White said they experienced.
