Title: I was put in jail for 2 days
Post by: Himu on July 19, 2009, 04:07:10 PM
I wanted to not reveal this but...

I was arrested and put in jail on Thursday. It was the first time I was ever arrested.

Basically, I was in my car driving home from work. I was on the freeway and I went to take an exit towards the airport. A ways into the lane some guy rear ends me, which shook me up, forcing me to stop.

It seemed like everything was in order, as it wasn't that big of a crash. The thing is, I was in the middle of a freeway exit and I'm not exactly willing to become a pancake, so I kept driving after the initial hit. He followed. I was looking for a safe place to stop that wasn't on the freeway, but the cops came as soon as I got into the airport.

They filed it a misdemeanor, not stopping at a crash site. Which I didn't want to do because I didn't want to stop and exchange insurance info and call the cops in the middle of a freeway exit if we were both completely mobile and healthy.

I gave the police my insurance and they said my car wasn't insured when it most undoubtedly was.

They put in jail with a misdemeanor charge and a $2600 ticket for not having an insured vehicle, which I did have insurance for.

I was in jail for 2 days and yesterday they released me. I went to court and got the ticket issue settled, case was dismissed. On the 24th I have a court date in regards to the misdemeanor. Hopefully things go smoothly.

Agreed.  The lack of details regarding the interaction with the officer and/or particulars of the arrest have me scratching my head.

No reason to get arrested AND HELD FOR COURT just for a failing stop charge and allegedly driving without insurance.  You're either full of shit, or holding something back, himu.

Were you in a cell by yourself? Or were you in with a group of guys?

4 other guys.

There was a toilet, 2 bunks. So 4 beds.

That cell was actually preferable to the other stuff I had to sleep on such as on the floor of cells that were over glorified bathrooms at the sheriff's office in downtown.

On Friday they took us to the sheriff's place to get some filing done and all that jazz at 6am. We came out at 4pm. I just slept and sat on the floor all day.

The cells at the sheriff's contained on rough average, at least 25-50 inmates in total at their largest. We moved down from people who were going to county and people like me going to a city jail all the way down to people like me who were gong to be released. So the inmate number in the sheriff's office gradually decreased as the day went by.

Most boring experience of my life. I migrated to at least 6-7 different holding cells that day, each with their own unique funky smell.

Food...on Thursday I was given one sandwich, some cookies, and orange drink. I don't know what time they gave it to me. All I know is that they gave it to me at night. When incarcerated you lose any sense of time and place. I would gauge it was at 8 or 9 they gave me that food, but when I finally managed to be able to call home and get an answer it was 1 in the morning.

Friday, I was given the same meal as above only twice.

On Saturday they gave us the following for breakfast:

- scrambled eggs
- grits
- apple
- cornbread (yes, cornbread)
- orange drink (yes it says orange *DRINK* on the label of the container, same for lemon flavor)

Lunch:

- Cabbage
- Spaghetti
- Carrots
- Cornbread
- Lemon Drink

Overall, the experience wasn't *so* bad, it was just mind numbingly boring. If I were to describe it I'd use three words: scary, stressful and boring. Inmates weren't so bad, and were actually nice to talk to. Lots of people had crazy stories and were fun as hell. So it wasn't too depressing, thankfully.

Hell, in Canada, an officer can't arrest for a summary offence (misdemeanour) unless the officer sees the offence being committed.

And for an indictable offence, you only arrest if:
-there are concerns with proving the identity of the individual
-concerns that the individual will continue or repeat the offence if not arrested
-concerns that the individual won't show up in court
- the individual must be arrested to preserve or secure evidence of the offence

Assuming the laws of the States are similar, Himu's story doesn't quite add up.

There's a lot of very weird things about this story.  First I thought that courts were closed on the weekends?  Also the officers didn't even try to check your insurance on their computers before arresting you?  I don't know but you need to really get a good jew.

Also what happens with the impound fee?  Do you need to wait until Friday to possibly get that canceled or should you just go to the lot now?

That's nice, Willco. I'm merely reporting what happened. The cop who said I didn't have insurance flat out said that the DA filed it as a misdemeanor and that I was going to jail.

I'm sure that's true for civilians but for inmates I guess it's different. I went to court yesterday at 11am.

They ran my proof of insurance through the computers and they said I didn't have any.

While I believe you about the insurance nonsense, your account of being arrested for a misdemeanor charge when you are the victim is clearly bogus.  The fact that you haven't addressed Boogie pretty much cements that.

When will you tell us what really happened?  Did you flip out on the officer?

What is there to say about the officer? I gave him my proof of insurance, I walked outside the car. He had his hand on his gun. He and another car came by and they started to chat.

They had me put my hands on the car, strip searched me and asked me questions like,"Is this your car?" "Do you have anything illegal in there?" "Blah blah". Police officer comes and says that the car doesn't have insurance for it. I call him out and say that is wrong, that the car is insured.

After what seems to be an hour they get off the phone with what was supposedly the DA and the dude says I'm going to jail for a misdemeanor - not stopping and trading info after the incident and a ticket for not having insurance.

Did you tell them that you were going to a safer area where to trade info? Did you tell the other guy in the accident to meet up off the ramp to trade info?

It seems to me like you:

a) don't have insurance
b) you knew that and you left the scene of the crash for that reason

I don't see why if you mutually told the other guy in the accident to drive to safer area to meet up and you also told the officer that, why you would be put in jail. You did that right? And was the other guy arrested?

I don't think cops are able to check insurance status in all states, especially if they don't give a shit. I had an out of date card in my glovebox and he still gave me a ticket. I had to get a special letter from my insurance company and give it to a judge to have the ticket wiped away.

Hey I'm just wondering if the guy who hit you knew to follow you off the ramp in some way, and if you told the police officer you were getting off the ramp to exchange info. Did you tell them that? It seems really odd they would put you in jail if you told them you were trying to get to a safer area.

Waved to him to follow. He followed.

Either way, I should have stayed there:

Quote
Sec. 550.022. ACCIDENT INVOLVING DAMAGE TO VEHICLE. (a) Except as provided by Subsection (b), the operator of a vehicle involved in an accident resulting only in damage to a vehicle that is driven or attended by a person shall:

(1) immediately stop the vehicle at the scene of the accident or as close as possible to the scene of the accident without obstructing traffic more than is necessary;

If i recall, there weren't any safe places to park on the freeway exit heading to the airport, though; no side lanes for an occasion but it would have been preferable to stopping in the middle of a two lane exit seeing that Houston freways have 4, sometimes 5 lanes.

Yeah exactly. Plus the fact that he's not even exactly ticked off about this "Injustice."

Seriously Himu, did you tell the cop that you were trying to get off the ramp with the guy to meet up? I still don't get why you can't answer if you told the cop that or not, or if the other guy was arrested too.  :lol

Not once in this thread have I asked for anyone's opinion on what happened. You are misconstruing my reasons for posting this topic; I don't care what you think about the arrest, or your internet detective schemes seeing that it has already happened.

I'm going to court either way. I'm more worried about how I'm going to get out of court than this "injustice".

I told you the other guy wasn't arrested and that I told the cop I signaled for the guy to follow me.

Hey Himumu, I'm not sure if Houston laws are the same as austin, but if nobody is hurt than you are supposed to get out of the way of traffic. You might not have done anything wrong. In fact when I got hit, all that happened was the police came and told us we didnt even need to have the cops show up. Where you on the beltway? Their might be special rules for that.

Bullshit.  IF your account of events is accurate, (and again, I view that as a big "if") it was an unnecessary, possibly even illegal arrest.

The fact that you're not even pissed about it just has me feeling that you're holding something back, or distorting something.

ie.  Even when prodded, you didn't actually mention the arrest.  Your story of the scene ends when the officer tells you that you're "going to jail for a misdemeanor."

Also:  strip searched out in broad fucking daylight?  When you haven't even been arrested?

And yet, you're not pissed, and say there was no injustice?

And for the record, it wasn't injustice. It was well deserved. I fucked up.

Bullshit.  IF your account of events is accurate, (and again, I view that as a big "if") it was an unnecessary, possibly even illegal arrest.

The fact that you're not even pissed about it just has me feeling that you're holding something back, or distorting something.

ie.  Even when prodded, you didn't actually mention the arrest.  Your story of the scene ends when the officer tells you that you're "going to jail for a misdemeanor."

Also:  strip searched out in broad fucking daylight?  When you haven't even been arrested?

And yet, you're not pissed, and say there was no injustice?

what the fuck is wrong with you?

This.

I really don't believe Himuro's story and the fact that he says he was wrong just shows us that something is seriously wrong with his version of events.

Oh, and I missed this little gem:


After what seems to be an hour they get off the phone with what was supposedly the DA and the dude says I'm going to jail for a misdemeanor -

No police officer is going to be fucking consulting with a District Attorney at the roadside scene of a collision where no one was hurt, and the only charges are a misdemeanor of failing to stop, and driving without insurance.   :rofl

Boogie:  "High, Crown Prosecutor (Canadian version of DA)?"

CP: "Yes?"

Boogie: "Yeah, I've got a situation here."

CP: "Okay"

Boogie: "Ya, you see, this black guy got rear-ended.  Nobody was hurt, but he didn't stop his car.  Instead, he pulled away a little ways to get his car to safety.  Oh ya, and he's driving without insurance.  "

CP: "..."

Boogie: "So, like, what do you think I should do?"

CP: "...Are you fucking kidding me?  Why the hell are you wasting my time with this shit?"  *click*

If Himuro's story was remotely true, the NAACP would be all up in this cop's business and Al Sharpton would march to his court proceedings to let freedom ring.

So this the current story:

Himuro was rear ended - the victim of a motor vehicle accident! - he drives a little bit until he can pull over to an airport, where he's greeted by the police.  He is cited for not having insurance and then waits thirty minutes to find out he's being arrested for a misdemeanor?

I mean, does anyone buy this?

the Law, as far as it has been said here, that you must stop at the site of the incident to exchange info unless you are the victim or unless it blocks traffic

but

-Himu stated he moved to the airport because there was nowhere else to stop
-Himu says he was rear ended, which would lead to think that 99% of the time he was the victim, but he says he was not the victim but gives no explanation as to why other than the cops claiming he was not the victim

So there is two likely possible explanations of it not being a misdemeanor. And one highly unlikely explanation as to it being a misdemeanor.

I think it's most likely that Himuro is downplaying exactly how long this 'exit ramp' was. If it was a roadway from a highway to an airport it could be like 2 miles long. That's probably what turned him into the bad guy, rear ended or not. Being black clinches it.

I got rear ended once and I just drove off and went home because I was driving a piece of shit and didn't want to deal with it. Dunno if that was legal in NY but I felt dirty doing it, even though I was the 'victim'



And yea, Willco is going three or four steps past where he has to, and trying to draw out too much from too little information.

Hell, in Canada, an officer can't arrest for a summary offence (misdemeanour) unless the officer sees the offence being committed.


Has himuro stated whether the police saw the accident and followed him to the airport? In Texas, the police can arrest people caught committing minor misdemeanors, such as violating seat belt laws (upheld by the US Supreme Court in Atwater v. City of Lago Vista). Even if they didn't catch the accident, they allegedly caught him driving without insurance, which is also a misdemeanor. Based on Texas statute and US case law, Himuro's story seems believable.

note: Atwater was a white, middle-class woman and the failure to wear a seat-belt is only punishable by a $50 fine.

This is one of the funniest threads I've seen on here. I guess Himu is done with it. Dude, I don't see how you can't see why people think you're holding something back You basically said you went to jail for this:

- Had an accident, where you were rear ended, which sounds like it wasn't your fault. I don't even know how its possible to be rear ended and it be your fault, unless like Wilco said, you just didn't have break lights or something

- You didn't stop, but apparently waived the guy over to a safer area off the ramp, where either the cops happened to be, or were called. And you told the cops you left to get to a safer area

You get arrested and in jail, which also doesn't make complete sense to be held over a weekend. They didn't even let you post bail? And also, you're completely calm about it and admit fault??

It makes no SENSE.  :lol Can't you see this? The way you explained it, you got rear ended, which means it was the other guys fault unless you were doing something really stupid driving you didn't mention. You didn't stop in the middle of the off ramp because it was too dangerous, and wasn't a big crash anyway. You waved for the other guy to get to a safer area, which I'm guessing was close by. You explain that to the cops but get arrested anyway.

I'm sorry, if someone rammed into me with their car and I was in danger of getting hit again on the expressway and moved my car, and I got arrested for it and in jail for TWO days I would be completely pissed. Unless there was something I know I did wrong and deserved it, which is what you act like, without explaining what part you fucked up on.

Someone should file an open records request and get the police report, LOL.

This is one of the funniest threads I've seen on here. I guess Himu is done with it. Dude, I don't see how you can't see why people think you're holding something back You basically said you went to jail for this:

- Had an accident, where you were rear ended, which sounds like it wasn't your fault. I don't even know how its possible to be rear ended and it be your fault, unless like Wilco said, you just didn't have break lights or something

- You didn't stop, but apparently waived the guy over to a safer area off the ramp, where either the cops happened to be, or were called. And you told the cops you left to get to a safer area

You get arrested and in jail, which also doesn't make complete sense to be held over a weekend. They didn't even let you post bail? And also, you're completely calm about it and admit fault??

It makes no SENSE.  :lol Can't you see this? The way you explained it, you got rear ended, which means it was the other guys fault unless you were doing something really stupid driving you didn't mention.

1. He was held for two days. In Texas, he can be held for up to 48 hours before seeing a magistrate and released.
2. It's not important that he didn't cause the accident. Both parties involved in an accident are legally required to stop in a safe place. Himuro said he "was looking for a safe place to stop that wasn't on the freeway." If there was a shoulder lane anywhere on the freeway between where the accident took place and the airport, he probably should have pulled over. If there wasn't a safe place, he can use that as a defense during his court date.
3. He should be angry that he was arrested and jailed for two days. But Texas police officers seem to have a lot of discretion (see my earlier post). So if he's angry at anyone, it should be at Texas and at the US Supreme Court.

Just came back from court. They set my trial to another date: August 13.

My attorney says that if we have insurance settle or help pay for the damage of the other vehicle we could probably lower the charge from Misdemeanor Class B to Class C, which would be far more preferable but not ideal.

He's trying to come up with a negotiation with the prospector so I can get out of this without something on my record and my case expunged.

I'm so damn split. On one hand, I'm disappointed we didn't just get over with today, because now I've gotta worry about this for 3 more weeks. On the other, I'm glad it was rescheduled because this gives us more time to prepare my case.

At least there wasn't any bad news today and I'm glad, because my girlfriend is flying in from New Jersey today and we're going to Dallas for the weekend. That will be something good to get my mind off of this crap.

A driver can cause a crash even though he was the one rear-ended. He can slam his brakes, change lanes quickly or without signaling, or fail to turn on the car's lights at night. (I'm not saying Himuro caused the crash; he's given few details about the actual accident.)

Well seeing that his vehicle was damaged as well, and I'm not exactly in the position to argue, settling would be a good step.

my suspicion: dead kid in the trunk. normally a class a felony, but since the kid was a mexican, they dropped it to a class b misdemeanor.

seems that unless you drove a rather long way from the scene -- which it sounds like you DIDN'T do since you were just looking for an unobstructive turnoff -- they would throw it out. i know cops freak out on behalf of insurance companies when the accident scene gets moved around since it makes declaring fault very difficult, but come ON.

So you accidentally caused the collision.

I agree.

Quote
How far did you drive? Was there a shoulder lane?

Distance? I'd guage 3-5 miles before he flashed his lights towards a police cruiser. The exit ramp is really long too. I signaled the guy to follow me after the incident and I drop at a speed slower than traffic so he could continue donig so.

However, given the distance, I can understand why the officer would construe the offense as a hit and run. I fucked up badly. I'll admit I probably missed a few places I could have stopped at on the way, but at that point I was panicking and didn't know what to do.

And no, there was not a shoulder lane in the exit. It's a one lane exit ramp with no shoulders.

I was unable to talk to the guy after the police intervened because they seemed semi-threatening and I was scared shitless; the authorities also told me not to move from that spot. I really only got a glimpse of his vehicle, himself, and the damage done. However, looking through the police report reveals he had his 14 year old son behind the drivers seat. They're claiming a possible injury, which I find to be bullshit because on the same report they claim they were both buckled up AND the kid wasn't even in within the same radius of the collision, which was closer to the front left side bumper and driver's door than it was to any passenger seats.

The trouble with this is that the website I linked above cites this,"If the injury is not serious, it is a felony punishable by up to one year in a county jail or up to five years in a state prison and/or a fine of up to $5,000".

If your lawyer is recommending that you pay off the other driver then you definitely were at fault somehow, I guess Willco is partially vindicated. I don't really see how paying off his damage has anything to do with your criminal case though.

lol @ prospector


...scrolling down, I see that it wasn't a rear end at all. There you go. So you veered into this poor sap and then drove how many miles away from him before stopping?

Post by: Himu on July 24, 2009, 08:32:37 PM
Paying off the damage could help decrease the class of the crime probably. Over 200 dollar damages is a class b misdemeanor, under 200 is class c. the goal is to lower the class from b to c.

So that means you drove up to 10 MINUTES without stopping? are you serious dude?  :lol I'll give a conservative estimate of say 6 or 7 minutes without stopping based on you going faster and not as long based on that. But thats still a fucking eternity in a car, especially after an accident.  :lol
