Your CRIME story

[nwiafan]

I was arrested on my 16th birthday at 7:30 AM for several alcohol related offenses. I was hand cuffed and put in the car while in my underwear oh and we lived on Duff in Ames so it was witnessed by many, many people. On the way to the cop shop I plead my innocence and finally the arresting officer (who I had known since I was 10) checked the name again and found out it was a different Thomas Sellers.

I was returned home without an apology.

I threw an empty keg out the window from the 9th floor of the towers. That ended my stay at the towers, so it was kind of a blessing, instead of punishment.

1 regret --- I threw bricks out of my dorm window onto a mustang with a t-top in the loading zone. first brick through the top glass, second brick punctured the hood. I'm not proud and would love to find the guy if he promised not to kick my ***.

1 funny - a guy ****** me off at a bar but he happened to have driven up in a convertable chrysler -a and left the top down. I let him have several pitchers of beer delivered via my bladder all over his interior.

1 sorta - in a Chichis parking lot when a taxi pulled up. Driver went inside but left the cab running and unlocked... and with a halfrack of beer in the back. I don't consider it grand theft auto so much as grand theft beer but I did have to drive his hack a number of blocks away so my pals could pick me up.

1 not me - a guy from my dorm floor stormed a veisha float in the early 80s and the last we saw he was running down the street drunk and laughing carrying the big toe from something off the float.

Multiple MIP's, sound ordinance violations, speeding tickets, open containers, reckless driving, other small misdemeanors.

My favorites are the ones I was accused of that I had nothing to do with. I was questioned multiple times and taken to Omaha for a little interrogation for the robbery of a hardware store. Fun part was that the description of the offender was a 6'5" Mexican man driving a Chevy pickup. I'm 6'1", white, drove a '94 Taurus at the time and had never stepped foot in the city of Omaha.

Then there was this whole thing with the FBI that involved illegal pornography, trojan computer viruses and a guy from Pakistan who was eventually caught and thrown in a federal prison. If there is anything to be learned from that situation is to always have an up to date virus checker, otherwise you might spend a year having your internet use closely watched by the FBI and then brought in for questioning about it - kind of an awkward situation.

Isn't "wreckless" driving what we're all aiming for?

Best "getting out of it" story I have (probably the only)

A few years back, some buddies and I were road tripping on a friday night during the summer. A couple of us had started drinking about 7:00 at my old man's shop, and were waiting on another guy to get off work. He showed up with his 1984 rear-wheel-drive, stick shift Toyota Corolla hatch back. Well, we grab a case of beer and start tearing around some gravel roads. Whip some shitties, go ditch riding, etc. We decide to go back to where we had started to meet up with some other friends. We get off the gravels and have to drive through the town of Stacyville (pop. 400). As we're getting into Stacyville, we meet a car. I notice him hit the brakes. We're screwed. Since I'm the only one over 21 @ the time (other guys were 20 or 19), we start shoving beers into the trunk.

The cop pulls over, and comes out to the car dressed in blue jeans, an untucked cop shirt and white high top sneakers. He doesn't even tell us why he's pulled his over. He just starts yelling at us "Have you boys been drinkin'? Don't lie to me! Get out of the car!" I'm sure that my buddy who was driving is going to jail for OWI (he blew right @ the legal limit, but he's 20), I'm thinking I'll get stuck with providing to minors, and the other guys are probably getting possessions/open containers. Of course the whole time I'm thinking to myself "why did he pull us over?" We weren't speeding, weren't swerving (driver hadn't drank much), and we had checked all of our lights before pulling onto the highway to avoid such a situation.

Finally, after reading us the riot act he goes "where you boys heading to anyways?" We tell him the destination and he says "well, get the hell out of here and if I see this car back on the road tonight, you're all going to jail". It was damn nice of him, but I know that the only reason he let us go is because he pulled us over out of sheer boredom, without any probable cause, and all of our charges would have likely been dropped. I probably haven't gone for a true road tripping night since then.

I'll hit the most exciting part first cause the rest isn't, at all.

Cops swarming at me from all sides, yelling, some with guns drawn, me ending up face down with a knee in my back. It happened so fast I probably reacted less than the situation warrented. If it was slower I may have peed.

Anyway, the less than exciting reason this happened - I decide to stop by my step fathers business with my buddies and a couple girls to hang for a bit and hopefully find something better to do. The problem was, I thought it best to be sneaky about it, which made neighbors who did see us nervous so they called the cops. We would have been far better off pulling right up in front of everyone, turning every light in the place on. Of course, we still may have been screwed becuase said business was in small town Iowa and a couple of my friends were black kids from DSM. I'd like to think that woulndt have been a problem, but I have my doubts.

One of us did get a ticket for buying the beer (all underage). They poured out the crap and took the case with them...

I got cuffed and thrown in the back of a squad car on Sunset Boulevard in LA. They had the drawn guns and the cop on the loud speaker telling me to show my hands and step out slowly. They frisked me too.

It was all a case of mistaken identity. I was an Iowa farm boy on vacation in the big city and had picked up a guy whose car was stalled at an intersection to give him a ride home.

Turns out the stalled car had been involved in a hit-and-run accident a few blocks back. The guys he hit had taken off on foot after him (the traffic was pretty bad), caught him at a red light at an intersection and took his keys out of the ignition.

Meanwhile, I was lost, after visiting the Comedy Store, and couldn't find the turn that would take me back to my hotel. This is WAY before GPS.

I pulled over into a side street to look at a map and found that the street I had come in on had changed its name right in the middle of it, so the street I was looking for didn't actually intersect with Sunset. I pulled back on Sunset and found the right street, which just so happened to be the one where the car was stalled in the turning lane.

I had no clue what was going on and pulled in right in back of him because I had to turn there too. This guy about my age immediately came up to my window and asked me for a ride to his house so he could get a spare set of keys. He had somehow lost them in the middle of the road. (I didn't know about the hit and run then).

I agreed to help him, he got in my car and I pulled back into traffic shortly before the cops came. They got there in time to see me leaving and pulled me over about two blocks later. After the dust settled, the cops told me they thought I was the hit and run vehicle. They pulled up on the scene, saw two cars at the intersection and one leaving and just made an assumption.

I sat in the back of the squad car for about half an hour while they sorted it out.

OH, yeah, I had been drinking too. But this was back in the day when cops didn't bust you for drunken driving unless you were really blitzed out of your gourd and stumbling around drunk. I knew I would be driving later in a huge, unfamiliar city so I didn't drink THAT much. I had maybe five beers over a 3-hour period at the Comedy Store.

I've gotten a dui, a couple MIP's, obstruction and a speeding ticket with the speed traveled reading 109mph.

The obstruction involved a high school friend visiting me in college, he and a couple of his friends were in town without my knowledge. Apparently there was a fight outside the bar, one of his friends mouths off to the cops, gets handcuffed thrown in the back of the squad car. A couple minutes later my friend lets him out of the car still handcuffed, they get in his car and head towards my house. On the way they are involved in a hit and run, which lead the cops back to my house, I wasn't home at the time but arrive a few minutes later seeing them trying to hacksaw the cuffs off the friend, less than 30 seconds later the cops come in guns blazing and arrest everyone at the house.

The same friend went on a drunken joyride in Omaha on NYE, we went from 60th and leavenworth to downtown weaving in out of the wrong lane of traffic, eventually turing up several one ways until a car stops in front of and turns on its "cherries", my friend swerves around the cop car speeds up the next street (wrong way on a one way again) and eventually takes out the streetlight in front of the bus station on 15th and lvnworth, we all scatter and find our own back the 50 blocks we traveled.This guy was around all but one time I was ever even question by law enforcement.

[fatkid1974]

I had a two page driving record from 18-22. Many speeding tickets, 3 driving while suspended, 1 driving while barred, Habitch offender 4 year suspension. Got license back at 26 and have had about one ticket a year since. Luckily never had DUI and had all my fines before the state went bat **** with the dollar amounts. I probably still wouldn't have a license if that happened now, couldn't afford the fines.

Have a couple good arrest stories that are best saved for private drinking times. One close call that only 4 people know about to this day. Other guy & gal involved and my wife, young stupid stupid ****. It's a hell of a story, get me drunk I might tell.....if your not from around here.

I hired Greg McDermott.

You'd lose your hand for that crime in most countries. Unforgivable.
