I work at a tobacco shop. And after they said I blown through a stop sign. When asked when drinking I said no. Then he said I smelled, and I quote, “of something suspicious”. I get cops get their paycheck for tickets and such but seriously has it really gotten this bad that for a ticket they try to make it something bigger? and ignoring my rights?
Very much not a lawyer but in the US from what I understand you don’t have to consent to a field sobreity test at all (IE the breathalyzer), but the cops can require you to come to the station for, the tests that they refused to give you.
As far as Miranda rights, that’s kind of misunderstood, in short if you weren’t formerly brought into an interogation room. or put in jail, it’s not a strong requirement for them to read it.
I don’t have the full picture but if you aren’t in jail, then you’ve basically got a BS ticket. They might be able to hit you for reckless driving or something if you were swerving or something in your driving lead to the actual suspicion and they have it on dash cam, but the DWI itself, should fall apart instantly without evidence.
I know my ex got out of a DWI that she was very guilty of, simply by police incompetence (cops lost the test results),
Actually, as far as Miranda rights, I could’ve swore the corrupt as hell SCOUTS recently overturned precedent on that and in doing so killed your right to have your Miranda rights recited to you at all. You still have said rights, in theory, but piggies no longer have to disclose that.
those are just courtesy to tell you what rights you have
you should know them already and shouldnt have to be told about them
You always victim blame, or you just like the taste of the of that boot?
Your argument, then, is that cops lying and/or coercing false confessions and the like out of their victims somehow benefits everyone? Please, do tell.
know your rights, its not their job to babysit
Right. Because their job, literally, is to surveil and harass citizens on behalf of a bunch of sociopathic parasites that rape, torture, and murder children.
And, dude, what’s the mother-fucking point of feeding a troll, such as yourself, if you’re not gonna at least be amusing?!? My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined!
(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻
Well the idea of Miranda rights is that people famously may not know their rights when they are arrested and thus need to be informed about them before being interrogated.
