Better And Better

If you don't draw yours, I won't draw mine. A police officer, working in the small town that he lives in, focusing on family and shooting and coffee, and occasionally putting some people in jail.

Don't.

Look, when you're the sole witness to your attack, and there's NO evidence of the attack, and the attacker is countering that you started it and he never touched you, so that your word is all that we have to go on....

DON'T start lying to the police about things that are provable. You will be discredited, and your case will be closed, under the heading "Unfounded."

Even if the Po-po want to believe you, they can't take something like that to a judge, and ask for a warrant. There is a "credible witness" standard.

Oh Matt, seriously now. We all know nobody would do something like that. Of course pretty much every other person these days is a nobody.

Y'all should get extra pay for having to put up with all the BS.

And conversely, if you are the police officer, record what the alleged defendant says about the event5, to see if there are provable lies there.

AND BE SURE THE INFORMATION GETS INTO YOUR REPORTS. PLEASE.
