    Thank you for the information and coming forward with your experience. I would have never thought of something like that being used AGAINST the one who was physically attacked. Also maybe nice to see another PNW in the wild.

      You’d use that in court to show how serious the fight was.

      Assaulting a police officer has two standard. It’s a higher punishment if you need medical care.

      So dudes would call an ambulance to get a band aid put on to qualify for the greater chargers. They received medical care.

      I am not anti-cop at all but I am anti-bullshit.

          That’s why I hate plea bargaining so much.

          Guy is mentally Ill. Old. Maybe started a fight with a cop but how much of a threat is he?

          Yet he’ll get charged and got to jail/prison and is society safer ?

          He’ll plea because no way he can afford a lawyer.
