Arrested for killing a cop!

[Sag3r]

So this it how it goes I got off work today and fucked around with the injectors on the s14 to see if one of them was stuck open. I got tired of fucking with that so I decide my car is not low enough so time to fuck with my coil overs I put the car on jack stands and take the wheels off in the garage. I was on my 3rd coil and a fucking cop runs up behind me pointing a gun at me saying to put my hands up and to drop my weapon a fucking coil wrench. So I was like WTF are you pointing that gun at me I didnt even know what was going on, so they hand cuff me put me in the back seat of the cruiser and im trying to figure out whats happening so I started asking questions and they tell me to STFU. I try to overhear what was going on and they said they had positive I.D. on the guy who shot the police officer. So to wrap things up the guy who shot the cop was wearing the same shirt and shorts I had on and they were blaming me for shooting an officer the guy had run through my neighborhood and they ended up not finding him and since I matched the description perfect they were going to throw my ass in jail . They ended up letting me go like around 5:30am this morning im fucking pissed off fucking pigs.

[ayuaddict]

wow, that fucking blows.

but hey, at least they didnt try to save face and just blame it all on you sicne they arrested you and all.

i would have been scared shitless while i was waiting to be proved innocent.

[IIIXziuR]

[DOOK]

No, it's not... Checks and balances. Only way they'll learn to check their facts instead of shoot first ask questions later.

[daryl337]

LOL... but seriously though, that sucks man. Atleast you were released...

btw totally agree

[PRADOgy]

I understad their line of work being stressfull, but seriously nothing is seen outside of that, to those (like yourself) who have been treated as the person who commited the crime are not compensated!

Oh yea umm a fucking cop killer just happen to take a rest in the area and work on his car openly untill it cooled down..




dude that something out of a movie.. fucken like LIAR LIAR or something

[aznpoopy]

glad it all worked out in the end

[kyoru]

fuck da police? they didn't do anything wrong, he matched the description.

[daryl337]

police always do something wrong. If they didnt, people would actually like them.


For example... using the same analogy.. I saw a white male police officer run a red light... but I don't go making citizen arrests on all white police officers. It sounds to me like the officer saw your clothes, got excited, and went all Barney Fife on your ass.

If he had taken the time to calm down, he probably could have thought "hmm.. if I had just killed a cop... would I be chilling in my driveway working on my car at the moment? Or would I be bookin my ass somewhere and hiding?".

On a different note, police officers are trained to act before thinking in situations where they are in immediate danger. Having you underneath a car with a coil over in your hand does not really constitute immediate danger, if any thing: you are the one put in danger with a trigger happy po pointing a gun at you making accusations.




Remedy? I have none. Deal with it. Sadly enough these guys are given a liscense to make big mistakes, a liscense that we as citizens do not have.

[Matej]

You kill a cop, run through your neighboorhood, and start working on your car, it's perfect, hahaha.

Sucks to hear.

Glad it worked out for the better at the end.

whats wrong with that. I would be pissed if they wasted my entire day.. and giving me my lack of sleep since he got out at 5:30am. what if he works early like at 7am. plus treating me like shit and not telling me why they detained me. if they had just let me explain and let them run like a 30min-1hr background check and let me go, then i'd let it go, but this is totally outrageous.

shouldn't they be reading me my rights at least or telling me why they detained me. i wouldn't just rub it off and say "thats ok. just an honest mistake officer. have a good day" maybe you're ok with that, but I don't like being pushed around and treated like scum for no good reason. i would understand if it was work or something and a higher up manager did that, but honestly I wouldn't know how long of that i could take before I end up quitting.

this happened to my brother a year or two ago. he was driving to 7-11 like at 1am to get some cigerettes, and police pulled him over. my brother is chinese but he's dark skinned and balled and he never smiles. my family always makes fun of him for looking like a triad member. anyways, police pulled him over because he matched the description of this cambodian gangbanger who was suspected in the area for stealling cars. cops id him and let him go. he didnt go through the hell this guy went through.

[adrians_s13]

damn dude, thats horrible...

in the eyes of the cops, we're all guilty until proven innocent...

[SiI40sx]

I wouldve LOVED to get shot in the leg or something by the cop! oh man.... can you say investments!?

[eastcoastS14]

thats nuts...youre seriously lucky you didnt get shot, Im honestly suprised that cop didnt rough you up at all....thats some shit though

[SimpleSexy180]

oh wow, lucky your not one of those guys in prison when they are totally innocent.

[HalveBlue]

Yeah, that's bullshit.

Don't get me wrong, adrenaline pumping, one of your buddies just got shot, I could see how you'd throw proper procedural matters into the wind. After all, a lot of cops live by the motto, "I'd rather be judged by 12, than carried by 6". But that doesn't make it right.

One of the great things in this country is that you have the right to scrutinize the government. Don't ever buy into the notion that when you take advantage of that right that you're somehow undermining the government.

Glad you didn't get shot.

because all police officers are homicidal maniacs who beg for any chance to discharge their sidearms.

seriously, you watch too much tv.

Why? Honest mistake... these things happen. He'll probably be receiving an apology, and maybe even some small compensation. Similar thing happend to a buddy of mine (he was arrested for an assault with a weapon and bank theft because he matched the description perfectly) when they released him, a couple weeks later he received a letter from the city apologizing and free tickets to any sporting event of his choice and VIP treatment.

This is basically the truth... you happend to look like the guy. Sucks, but hey, at least they admitted there mistake.

[SiI40sx]

I wonder if that was a situation where self defense would be allowed, since the cop was on private property and threatning you with a weapon..... I wonder what kind of mess what would make in court.....
