Sorry to hear about your troubles. I had the pigs come to my house in Las Vegas, because someone randomly broke into my home and the neighbors saw it. Even though I had my card, the Pigs charged me. And the court kept putting off the trial for 2.5 years, even though I never signed away my rights to a speedy trial. The court said that since I was not in jail, they did not have to give me a speedy trial. By the time it got to a year, I was out of money for any more private lawyer. I finally plead guilty to a stupid charge of attempted possession of weed. Pfft. what a fucking joke. I was not trying to buy it. But I got time served, no fines and just 8 hours of drug classes. They kept giving me offers and I kept telling them to shove it. I almost got contempt of court one time, because I called my public defender a Public pretender in open court and everyone busted out laughing. But once the economy collasped, I had to get out of that shit hole. So stand your ground and do not let those SOB's make you bow down to them.
