Does he have any grounds to fight this since the police did not have a reason to stop him in the first place?

Answered by attorney Lawrence Lewis (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Lawrence Lewis, P.C.
Your understanding is the police stood around for an hour questioning your boyfriend at night waiting for him to submit to a search of his person, is that correct? I suspect that you got that all wrong. If the police are going to violate your rights, they do not need to wait an hour to do it. Meanwhile your boyfriend that coincidentally denies consent has marijuana in his pocket. Good luck.

Could she go to jail if she went to pick something and she found out that it was paid for with a stolen credit card?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Francis John Cowhig (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Francis John Cowhig
She could. Since the items were paid with a stolen credit card, the items purchased can also be considered stolen and she could be charged with receiving stolen property as well as other crimes.

Can I be charged with public intoxication after I was accused of theft?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Michael Thomas Lynch (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at Michael T. Lynch
Yes, you can be arrested and charged with being drunk in public regardless of any accusation of theft. Drunk in public is the most over used charge by the police to punish individuals for incurring their displeasure. You are on the right path for your defense. The DA will have to prove you were unable to care for yourself. Even if the DA can't convict you, the officer and his actions will have cost you time, money, or both. Such an arrest is an abuse of power. Good luck.
