just got busted

[Makaveli]

damn ya'll whats up. mann i just got busted the other night in houston for public intoxication of marijuana. here's what happend, me and my friend had just got finished smoking and just pulled into a Kroger's. we were just sittin in my car chillin and a fuckin cop car pulls up next to us and knocks onmy windows and says get out. then he slams my friend on the hood and his buddy does the same to me. i was fuckin surprised cuz i didn't know what we did. anyway he charges me with PI and my friend with possession. the funniest part was they had the K-9 unit there and didn't use it, but the cops searched my car and could find my pipe or my stash of dro. but now i gotta get a lawyer and all that shit so, anyone got any advice or had a PI for marijuana and know what i'm facing?
peace and be careful, even when your doing nothing they can still get you.

[StarcommanderX]

your fucked. but itll all be joke in a few years. or not. a criminal record isnt a good thing to have.

[Jake0steve]

Wow, how did they know you werre smoking?

[NightProwler]

okokok... break one of your ribs, and just casually mention to your mom that the spot were the cop hit you is really hurting. If she doesnt freak out and take you to the doctor immediatley, just keep slowly compalining of the pain untill they finally take you to the doc and x-ray you. then they'll find out that the motherfuckin pig broke one of your ribs!

thats the craziest part we werent smoking there. we pulled up i the lot about 5 minutes before the cop came in and he pulled over someone else and then immeadiated turned his attention to us. i asked the cop why he was so violent with us and he said"Cause your dopesmokers"!! haha what a fucking asshole.

[partyguy420]

dude... did they tell u what they were aresting u for befor they started aresting you guys??? you can get them in shit to... and alost of the time... if u werent told what u wer being chraged for... and they arested u and when u got in the car and like 5 minutes down the road... most likely the judge will throw out your case, and a couple of cops lose there job and have to work as security guards

good idea night prowler they did break my watch to when they cuffed me and threw me against the car. and partguy I asked repeatedly what i was charged with and they finally told me PI, i did ask for a sobriety test tho and he refused to give me one so hopefully we can use that.

[bulls4591]

[Makaveli]

HPD are dicks. My advice is get the best possible lawyer. What part of htown were u in?

[Cleveland]

you can be detained without the po-po letting you know why and you don't have to be read your rights til you are beingofficially arrested. as soon as you get put into custody by the cops, its a really good idea to keep your mouth shut and just pay attention to what they do to you. its a good idea to read up on the local police department policies and see if they broke even the smallest regulation, cause in court your lawyer can use that to help prove the lack of ingrety in the police officer. i used to be a cop, if you have any other questions feel free to email me

All I can tell you, buddy, is that you get what you pay for when it comes to laywers... learned that the hard way....

[Makaveli]

thanks cleavland. and a beezy im from south houston near almeda and southpark. where u from?

[slipknotpsycho]

houston is notorious for cops with shitty attitudes and bad evidence handling. i'm willing to be they broke some kind of law/regulation, espeically the slamming thing. were you two resisting at all? cuz of not let your lawyer know how they handled the situation and that you weren't resisting, if he can prove the cops were being overly abusive/forceful then you'll probably get the charges dropped. and i doubt much will happen for pi, i got a possession charge and got a 1000 dollar fine, got my liscense suspended for 6 months, spent 1 night in jail. and have to take some bullshit drug awarness program. i doubt you'll even get that much, and i know for a fact you can't have you liscense taken away for a PI charge. might get the 1000 dollar fine tho, but i payed mine in four payments of about 250 (have to add in court costs.)

I live in Austin, but my best friend lives on the west side like 10 blocks from the galleria on Westheimer, so I spend a lot of time there.

Definitly try every trick to try and get out of this one. The broken rib is sleazy, but it's good. The cops had no need to slam you on the hood, and you getting an injury from that can hold up. Just play up every angle, and you eventually one of them has to work.

[del...]

wait for arraignment before hiring a lawyer and plead not guilty...most likely charges will be dropped for lack of evidence (they never tested you...right?)

[Makaveli]

all the cop did was told me to CLOSE my eyes and shined the light at me CLOSED eyes and said i was high. I kept asking him to give me a test and he said "save it 4 tha judge" fuckin dick. and nah mann i wasnt resisting i was fuckin calm as hell just askin him why i was being arrested. i did ask the one cop why the other was being so rough and get this, he said it was because i was "a dopesmoker" goddamn cops are fuckin assholes.

[RastaKaze]

i have no advice for you.. but i totally fucking feel you man. the system is sooooo fucked up. no human being should have power over another, that's how I view it... and with the cops today, it's all about power.. believe it or not but i think the initial creation of a police force was a good idea, until tons of christian powertrippin drunkards started applying for popo positions (oh yea, fill your body with poison but don't smoke a plant that came outta the ground) (btw i didnt mean no offense to christians, as many of my family members are) i dont know shit is just fucked up nowadays
