Anyone ever been arrested?
Random I know, but I thought their might be some funny stories behind being arrested... It's 10am and I'm already counting the minutes till the day is over...so bare with me
I was arrested for shoplifting (ironic given my screen name) in Nordstrom when I was 18. I didn't do it of course... but they didn't want to hear that. Apparently they claimed that myself and a friend took a Filofax off the shelf and tried to return it for cash.... what actually happened was my friend was trying to return a filofax without a receipt, but before going to the register, we went over to the filofax display to make sure they carried the style she was returning.....
Long story short, we were handcuffed and brought to the 3rd precinct on Hillside Ave... thrown in a holding cell and finger printed. QUITE an experience I must say. 8 years later and I look back and laugh at it... at the time I did NOT see the humor behind it

Re: Anyone ever been arrested?
Oh, we didn't have to be bailed out. They gave us a ticket/summons to appear in court, but we didn't have to spend the night.... Getting a cab to pick us up from the jail was no easy task either.... The cab company refused to get us, thought we were degenerates.

Re: Anyone ever been arrested?
uh-huh I was 19 at college in Iowa. Me and my girlfriends were arrested in our dorm for having minors drinking at a party. It was actually pretty funny....we were quite obnoxious to the 2 cops along with being pretty drunk. They had also got one of the minors but he was fighting the cops as we were getting in the car and the minor ran off. The cops sped off with us in the back seat trying to chase this kid, eventually getting him. I swear, these cops probably had the highlight of their career in this little butt frick town. We were in the cell overnight(singing,laughing like a bunch of fools!) til court the following morning. In the end...$100 fine and community service. The most embarrasing part? The one minor was actually my 'student advisor & professor for a few classes' foster kid and he came to pick him up while seeing our sorry azzes sitting in jail

They said they had an eyewitness who saw us take it off the shelf. Our parents wanted to sue Nordstrom but at court, we were pleaded down to an OCD... which basically says you are on probation for 6 months, if you are straight for those 6 months, it's like the incident never happened... so we couldn't sue.

That's hilarious....
When we were in the holding cell we were being berrated by all the cops in the precint. Calling us the Spice girls, egging us on.. it was a moment to never be forgotten... I won't say some of the racist remarks that went on... but it boggled my mind what was going on.
As I was being finger printed I was crying, and the cop goes, "If this is the worst thing that happens to you in your life you're living a pretty good life." I go, "I don't know buddy, I'd like to get by without being arrested."

Re: Anyone ever been arrested?
I have never been arrested but I was an eyewitness to two people getting arrested.
One i was walking home from a bar in the early morning hours and I heard a sceetch and saw a guy opening a window on a house to break in. Needless to say I just stared but kept walking and then like 2 seconds later the cops were all over the place. I guess someone else saw it too...he was arrested.
I also was flashed by a guy with no pants on when i was out jogging back in college. The guy apparently did this a few times nad they finally caught him...had to pick him out of a line up and everything. He finally did 6 months. I didn't have to testify because he accepted a plea bargain...thank god!
However, i have never been arrested.

Re: Anyone ever been arrested?
I never was, but we were 17, we use to drive this kid to the mall, and pay him 10.00 for each piece of clothing he stole for us. He got arrested. I felt bad about it, but he was doing this for everyone, it was his side business.

Re: Anyone ever been arrested?
when I was 19 I borrowed a friends car to get cigarettes and the car had no brakes I mean NO BRAKES and I went through a stop sign....I smashed into a Suburban and was all disoriented. I ran to a house all full of blood and asked to use the phone and they were screaming that I might have AIDS and to stop bleeding on the property so I ran up to Sunrise HWY to a payphone....it didnt work so I was going back to the accident and I passed out from loss of blood I woke up in the hospital in handcuffs Leaving the scene of an accident I was strip searched and berated lI lost my license for 6 months it was HORRIBLE I had high insurance for 6 years after that
Still to this day I dont think its funny and I cant laugh about it
Oh I forgot to add I was thin at the time and apparently I had my accident in a "heroin hot spot" so they thought I was a druggie and they offered to let me go if I ratted out a drug dealer

Re: Anyone ever been arrested?
I just remembered, I did have to bail a sleazy boyfriend I had in college, out of jail 3 times!! Once for shooting a bb gun within 50 feet of a road. (Dumb A**)
Another time, he was driving my car which had an overdue inspection, registration & insurance. (Don't speed unless these things are up-to-date)
Finally, for putting a whole in the wall of a hotel we were staying at. It was an accident, but that was the final straw!
