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?
Cops are allowed to lie to you relentlessly. Even if they do something illegal like questioning you without reading you your rights, they know you’ll have to fight it in court. Things are stacked in their favor pretty strongly. Even if you end up fighting them in court over a Miranda violation, that’s a problem for the prosecutor, not the cop arresting you.
Be relentlessly polite to the cops while admitting nothing. They usually don’t deserve politeness but it lessen the chance of them harming you.
hes going to have find a competent lawyer that deal with DUI/DWIs.
