Hi folks and folkquettes,

I've been charged a few times. Total vacation time: three days and 2 hrs.
in 5 incidents. On 14 counts. All nolle prose. Good lawyers make miracles happen.
I always wonderer if it has to do with having bipolar. Or it's plain bad luck.
How about you?.

I was arrested once (OWI) but didn't spend any time in jail. I don't know if being arrested like that counts though.

What is it like in jail?

I was just way intoxicated. I don't remember what my blood alcohol count was, but when I went to court it made people in the court room gasp.

It was a real reevaluate the direction of my life moment.

(It was nine years ago.)

No delinquents here to speak of so far.
I'd rather be pursued by justice than by poverty.

Arrested for being manic once. The doctor let me out right away and said I had no business being there. The cops spent the night teasing and harassing me. I should have sued but I wasn't all there enough. There are problems when police get involved with mental health issues and it often ends with the mentally ill person being abused and mistreated. They need better training.
Thanks for this!

I'm sorry StopSign. It's not fair. Police are not properly trained yet they send them out on suicide calls and other things they are not well prepared for. They get people killed and cause a lot of psychological stress. (((Hugs)))

None of you has experienced the sublime sound of the bars closing behind you.
And 44 pairs of eyes looking for weakness. Any weakness.
I'm looking for someone who has done some serious time, like me.
