Law Enforcement & Police - August 2006

[Selected]: All categories Politics & Government Law Enforcement & Police

Two months ago I was involved in some sort of incident in another state (LA county, to be exact). Anyways, there was always a 1% possibility of an arrest warrant. Like I said, it's been two months, and I haven't heard anything from the police or anyone (they have my contact information). Last week I called LA county courthouse to see if I have an arrest warrant -- just in case, you know? They said nope. I made sure to ask them if it was in all of LA county, they said nope. But should I call again (one week later)? Do you think anything would have changed in a week?

Or am I just paranoid?

I had pulled over onto a gravel sideroad, about midnight out in the country, was talking on my cell phone, a cop drives up & comes to my window. He says a passerby had flagged him down & said they had stopped & pecked on my car window but got no response, like I was supposed to be passed out or sleeping or something (complete lie). A pickup truck did drive by, but they didn't stop. So while I was talking to this cop, he says he smells alcohol. I don't drink. (Lie #2) Made me get out, searched me, my car, & gave me a sobriety test but not a breath analyzer. How do I defend myself against lying cops? I thought I was going to be arrested. I am a 51 yr old white female, have a clean record, never been arrested & have had one speeding ticket (school zone) & 2 parking tickets in my entire life. Please, only serious answers.

In my country, no one wants to associate with a family whose member has been to prison.
Crimes are so rampant in the US & people don't just give a damn going to jail - its like second home to most.
Could it be because prisoners have access to too much comfort?

A few weeks ago I had a campfire and was certain I put it out. But guess it was smoldering underground and after I left, it started up again and became a major forest fire.
At first I was told I would receive a citation, then a few days later I was told I was being charged, with failure to put out a campfire.
I've been waiting for the court date, and had planned on pleading guilty and taking whatever consequences they saw fit. I had to repeat my story to many different people, and the investigators agree and have publicly stated they realize I took precautionary steps, and that it was an accident.
But two days ago an officer delivered my summons, it said they were charging me with 'reckless burning,' which carries a stiffer penalty and possible jail time.
I don't want the court stuff to drag on, do you know anything about pleading 'no contest?' How can I learn more?
I really want to represent myself rather than have a lawyer.
Thanks

The world wide web was invented by a British man who finished its development in Switzerland. So why is it that America thinks it should be the one who can govern the internet? I'm aware that American's contribute a lot to the internet in many shapes and forms but do you think any one country should be in control of it, if yes why, and if no then how would you inforce laws related to the internet?

I am not pro drug or anything I know what drugs can do to but can we legalise weed if for sole reason maybe people wouldn't drink so much alcohol. I believe reason that alcohol is so abused in our society is it's about the only mind altering drug legally available maybe if we allow a more beneign drug maybe people would ease off the booze. Just my two cents

I've been real worried lately bout driving under the influence, I know, duh, I should be. Other than saying I shouldn't do it, which I know, what should I do if I get pulled over? Blow in the breathalizer or not, do I tell the cop I drank or not? Real advice only please. There's some times when I don't really have a choice and I gotta drive home

During the french revolution there was a temporary regime called the
"Commitee of Public Safety"
That spells COPS, so I was wondering- is there any connection?

Yeah, I know Law and Order episodes are created for tv and crimes aren't really solved within an hour. But are there really psychologists working with the police to help them solve crimes or is that something made-up just for the tv episode?

I received a letter saying I committed the offence of failing to conform with the indication given by a red traffic signal. The time into the red was stated as being 1.5 seconds. I have been led to believe in the past that you are given 3 seconds.
