Fricke cops with nothing better to do! - Page 3

TO BRASSCATCHER and all others that say "Unfortunately they have to enforce laws that seem trivial to us, but remember most would rather be catching the bad guy instead of getting numbers so the higher ups can toot their own horns" These cops are people just like you and me and I know for a fact that they can and do pick and choose what laws to enforce. The cop that stopped BurlyGuys in Detroit was just being a lazy douchebag it was easier for him to mess with some guy trying to recycling his stuff than to get the real crooks. Also that License crap is only there to help the city make money as we all know Detroit is one of the poorest city in our country.

I went to my initial court date and talked to the public defender stationed in the courtroom. She laughed when I told her I was under the impression the ticket would be dismissed. She said derisively: "Well, did you DO it?". When I told her I thought the law was to stop thievery and not honest businessmen she basically told me it's all about the money.

Then I looked at the form they required me to sign which stated I was being ticketed for a misdemeanor, which carried a maximum penalty of $500.00 and up to 90 DAYS IN JAIL! Went back to the defender asking about bringing representation and she advised me to do so.

Hired my attorney. $500 EACH to defend the tickets given to me and my driver of the second truck. So now I'm out a grand.

Got court date set up for today, which I went with attorney. Turns out he was able to work a plea deal, I plead guilty and pay a fine of $150, and if I keep my nose clean for 90 days it is dismissed and expunged. Nothing on my record.

I'm not sure he was worth the money since I still had to pay, but who knows, without him I might've gone to jail.

Detroit can kiss my tailpipe.
