Law Enforcement & Police - March 2007

You see this in the movies alot. Cop in a hot pursuit says "Hey I'm commandeering this vehicle!" then just takes the person's car, or motorcycle or whatever. Can a policeman, FBI agent, or anyone employed by the government actually do this? And if so, how would one get their vehicle back? Or if the officer destroys said vehicle, can you get compensation for it?

I live in Texas, and I recently got a traffic ticket . I've already paid bail and taken defensive driving. Right now, I'm waiting for the thing that the driving school is supposed to mail to me. I think I'm supposed to keep the reciept from that and send the rest to Austin with my request for my driving record am I correct? I can't remember... If I send for my driving record by internet, how will I know that my record was okay'd before it was sent? I'm a little confused about this since I've got about 2 weeks after I get the form from my driving school to get my record to the court.

Say you were investigated, a criminal report created, but nothing ever comes of it. Do they eventualy purge this from your record after so many months or years? or is it on your record or file for your entier life?

I was wondering is there a way that you can trace a number to find out who it is because I am being harrassed by someone by text. I called my phone provider and they told me to make a complaint at the police station and something about harrassment. This person was texting me cursing me out and threatening me. I have a feeling who it is but I am not sure, but I dont know if I should file a complaint or not. If it is who I think it is then I think I do want to make a complaint but if it was a mistake then I dont know.What should I do?

I am not going to lie I also exchanged some words because I got upset. So would it still be ok to file a complaint? This person was saying they would come to my job and smack me. When I was talking to my cell phone provider she called me but I didnt answer and she left a message harrassing me also.

I'm sure you are just as disgusted as I am. Why couldn't he just grab her purse without beating her? It's not like she could go after him. Not that wouldn't be terrible as well. I can't believe there are human beings out there like him. He's obviously a bad drug addict but that doesn't excuse it! What do you think an appropriate punishment would be? I don't want him to go to prison for the rest of his life but have to do tons of things to give back to the community. His sitting in jail will only just keep another creep off the streets. I'm sure he'll get a few good beatings though from disgusted inmates. I hope they catch him! Someone must know who he is, they should offer a large reward.

Gilmer pulled over a van full of illegal immigrants. When they tried to speed away, Gilmer shot out the back left tire and tried to take out the back right tire. In the process, he shot one of the illegals (didn't kill her, just injured her). Now he's sitting in jail for using "unnecessary deadly force".

1) The family should not have been crossing the border in the first place.
2) The family should not have tried to run from the officer.
3) The illegals shouldn't have the right to complain. They shouldn't have been here in the first place.


For all of you illegals out here...GET OUT OF OUR COUNTRY. We don't want you here and you mess everything up...take our social security and what not.

Does donating to the FOP make you look good to the cops (not necessary getting you out of a ticket)? BTW I love you cops, keep up the good work!!!

After successful completion of probation, you may petition the court to dismiss the charges.
The case and conviction will remain public record.
So I want to know why it is recommended, and beneficial to have your case dismissed.
