[18:50] Goblin but certainly in the UK I think the Police officer has to prove their case......I remember being pulled appart in court with evidence that was completely true and accurate, [18:51] IsambardPrince Goblin: In Illinois there are some recent laws designed to deal with police and prosecutor misconduct. [18:51] IsambardPrince 1. They can't lie to a kid under 18, but they can lie to an adult over 18. [18:51] *psydroid2 has quit (Ping timeout: 2m30s) [18:51] IsambardPrince 2. They can no longer pull you over because you were not wearing your belt, they cannot search your car because you smell like weed, and they can't pull you over because something is hanging from a windshield. [18:52] IsambardPrince 3. They have to wear body cameras and they have to be on and recording audio and video during all interactions. [18:52] IsambardPrince In 2019, none of these were the law. [18:52] Goblin Unless it could be completely justified in the UK dishonesty to investigate a crime would be looked at poorly by the courts. [18:52] IsambardPrince And #3 would have helped me. [18:52] IsambardPrince Because they lied and said I said things. [18:52] IsambardPrince If they were wearing the cameras, then I could have said "When did I say that? It's not on any of the footage." [18:53] IsambardPrince Goblin: As it was, I just had to make the prosecutor really not want my case. [18:53] IsambardPrince So I previewed an insanity defense. [18:53] Goblin cameras were coming in as I finished my service but I loved the cameras...record everything so that there can be no false claims by any party. [18:53] IsambardPrince And did some other things. [18:53] IsambardPrince Eventually they wanted rid of it and settled for very little. [18:54] IsambardPrince Just to close it and move on. [18:54] IsambardPrince They threw out one of the charges, lowered the other one to a very petty offense, gave me a little bit of minimal probation, and closed it out with no conviction.

[19:07] IsambardPrince To go see the game. [19:07] IsambardPrince The tickets for the game are like $150 minimum, and a single beer is $11. [19:08] IsambardPrince So of course they park in front of a sign that says "you will be towed" to save $3. [19:08] IsambardPrince So tenants were gathering up to try to figure out where they would park, and I called the after hours number that threatened us about my radio.

[19:09] IsambardPrince Should have just paid $3. [19:10] IsambardPrince You can't go easy on these people and just try to find a street parking spot. [19:10] IsambardPrince If you do that, you might forget to move your car later and you get a ticket because someone else was stealing from you. [19:13] IsambardPrince When you bend to accommodate abusive people, then they don't learn severe lessons that deter them later.
