I don't have any intention of doing this, it's just that a character does that in a fictional piece I'm writing and I'm wondered whether it would be realistic for him to get arrested or not?

And if you didn't understand the question the way I worded it in the title, basically if they give him money the kid hacks into the computer system and changes grades for other students...would he be arrested if he were caught?

All the letters of the first word were spelled out, and of a large size. Children can see it and read it.
I can't believe the owner of the car can get away with something like that.

It is in California.

i postponed the ticked two times and then the third time i paid a bond but the officer alway showed up. he read his statement that he received training on how to use the radar gun. he said that his equipment can only be off by a couple of miles either way. I wanted to go get the ticket over with believing that he would give me a break but he wouldnt budge from his stance. Now i am supposed to write a reply to the motor vehicle stating my reason for not paying the ticket. I paid $140 and was sent back $27. How can i beat this ticket so that my insurance is not notified?

If it happened 2-3 years ago when the person was a minor how do you get proof that the minor was molested? How do you get someone to believe you so you can take the jack-ss to court?

I have doubts in just one's word being enough to put the jack-ss/person behind bars.
And then how do you go about a lawyer?...As you can tell I'm lost in this...
Help Please!

Ok so heres the story-

June 2006 - Sat. morning walk to car to get in for work and discover writing in pink lipstick all over the window, a heart drawn with an arrow through and my live in boyfriend of 5 years initials.

Nasty emails off and on throughout the rest of 2006..on myspace and no way to track them.

Dec. 31st/Jan. 1st- tires are slit on my new car so perfectly that they werent flat when i got in it, but blew out dangerously when i drove it. police took note of this and i told them about prior incidents.

Jan 2nd- hear a car door slam at 1:30 in the morning, so i run outside and see nothing, check my backup car (the one with slit tires is in the shop being safety checked), and now there another heart in lipstick all over the window.

Jan 3rd- boyfriend car gets a heart drawn on it in lipstick.

Cant figure out who it is, nobodys seen nothing, no tracks, no nothing. took pictures of everything and police wrote down incident with slashed tires.

What can i do?

My nephew's on again off again girlfriend is taking my sister to court saying that my sister has harrassed her. The only time my sister has contacted her was to ask about her granddaughter. She won't let my family see the baby-just to be spiteful and NC doesn't have grandparents rights. Her family knows the law really well - they have all been in trouble and know what to do. That girl failed to mention that she called my sister a lot and has even met with her telling her that she will let her see the baby. Then when her family found out-the papers came. My sister has letters that she wrote to my nephew, who by the way, has an order agaisnt him!! It's like she just wants us to think things are okay-then she uses those things against us. My nephew got into trouble for breaking the order and for threatening her family and.is in jail. It was his frustration that caused this..I know the threats was wrong-he said he would beat their a** It's driving us all crazy!!

My buddy and i are curious as to what all the Ohio State Highway Patrol does during the day.
As far as i know, they look for traffic violations and clean up accidents.

Also, what kind of different jobs are their within the State Patrol?
Are their undercover officers?
Drug specialists?
that sort of thing?

and we're looking at their web site right now and it's pretty vague.

SO if anybody can answer any of the questions...thanks a lot

PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE ANSWERING.
I believe it is the ineffectual and limp wristed "government" that we have (UK) who are only concerned with appeasing the criminal classes and ensuring that lawers and barristers get rich from the protracted and complicated legal system that is in place here.
Police are not the problem as they can only work with the legislation given to them by government. DISCUSS.

I will concede that there are a small minority of coppers who are a disgrace to the uniform and they should be tossed out of the job immediately, although this is not the topic.

PORTLAND, Ore. - The city of Portland has agreed to
pay $145,000 to an elderly blind woman after police
pepper-sprayed and shocked her with a stun gun.

The altercation began as an attempt to remove shrubs
and appliances from 71-year-old Eunice Crowder's yard,
and ended with police citing her for harassment and
disobeying an order.

"This case goes to show that police misconduct and
excessive force can happen to anybody outside the
mainstream," said Ernest Warren Jr., Crowder's lawyer.
"It does not have to be an African American; it can be
someone who is elderly and white."

The June 9, 2003, incident began when Ed Marihart, a
city employee, showed up at Crowder's home. He served
her with an administrative search warrant to remove an
accumulation of trash and debris.

According to Crowder and her lawyer, the woman told
him she was blind and hard of hearing, and asked him
to read the entire warrant to her, but he refused.

Missouri: Police Roadblock Harassment Caught on Tape
St. Louis County, Missouri threaten to arrest a teenager for refusing to discuss his personal travel plans

The Newspaper
Wednesday, January 3, 2007

A teenager harassed by police in St. Louis, Missouri caught the incident on tape. Brett Darrow, 19, had his video camera rolling last month as he drove his 1997 Maxima, minding his own business. He approached a drunk driving roadblock where he was stopped, detained and threatened with arrest when he declined to enter a conversation with a police officer about his personal travel habits. Now Darrow is considering filing suit against St. Louis County Police.

"I'm scared to drive for fear of being stopped at another checkpoint and arrested while doing nothing illegal," Darrow told TheNewspaper. "We're now guilty until we prov

Im looking to talk to anyone that is a CANADIAN cop or private investigator. I have suspicion that someone I know could be preying upon young woman or worse. I have no evidence to really prove this though. I was friends with this person online, and then one day I looked up their phone number and suprise! They didnt have the same name, location, or nothing. I have their address, a few emails, and some fake names they go by. This could be a potential serious matter. Im praying that by the grace of god someone is willing to help free of charge! I have an address, so if a cop or private investigator would be willing to run the address through some system thatd be great!!So if your willing to talk or help me in any way please reply.
