Last night i was put in the back of a cop car for 45 minutes for being "drunk and disorderly". The police ended up just dropping me off at my house and i didn't receive any papers or anything saying i would be charged for anything. I'm wondering if there's anyway i could still get in trouble for this situation (like they send the papers in the mail or something) or if i should stop worrying about it.
Here where we live that means they felt sorry for you and you obviously weren't being beligerant therefor you were a good candidate for a ride home. At least you weren't a good candidate for a telephone book and nightstick. I don't imagine you'll hear about it again unless you end up in more trouble.
well i don't think they felt sorry for me, since the reason they put me in the back of their car in the first place i believe was for me flicking them off or doing something to that extent. And i probably was being beligerent in the beginning, but i think i got better and was more respectful at the end. So i don't think it was just a friendly car ride home. From my understanding they would have given me the ticket before dropping me off if i was going to get in trouble. But i want to be sure they can't/won't send me a ticket in the mail or soemthing.
Not worth the paperwork or the court appearence is on target. The more respectful attitude towards the end may have also helped them decide. I agree you pretty much got a "get out jail" free pass on this one.
