    What a horrible story! I really hope things work out in your favor somehow. Nobody deserves that type of hell.

    Wow!!!!!!!! I hope you can pull a happy ending out of this somehow. Being in such dire straights, might just lend you to making a decision to relocate and start fresh. best of luck to you on this whole mess.

    I don't know the whole story and I am not one of those sue-happy nut bags, but just seeing this little bit of your side, it sounds like a harassment suit in the making. Not just direct costs, but thousands in insurance premium hikes and potentially lost income. That's one of many reasons, I record every dollar I make & spend and pay my taxes.

    Once again, I was pulled over, it was just 5 minutes ago, and it was in front of my house. The first words out of his mouth were " Aren't you still suspended?" Then says that his reason for pulling me over was because of no light on the license plate. I argued with him and said " no it wasn't, you pulled me over because you thought my license was suspended." He said no, and said "I ask everyone that I pull over if their license is suspended." My girl ("Gotta Girl") corrected him, and quoted him "no, you said " Aren't you still suspended?"" He let me go without a ticket, because he was such a nice (PRICK) cop.

    I was recently stopped by the po po at a Dish Network place I got a hook up at for all the scrap satellites.

    Well it was about 11p.m when I went up there to collect, their open usually till 12a.m and 7days a week.
    After I had left and was about 2 miles down the road a cop saw me from way in the distance. I was going down hill to stop light where the road T. He was going straight though the T and saw me way up the hill coming down. He kept going and I turned in same direction he went. He must of pulled off where another cop was running radar on the side road because when I passed their were 2 cop cars on side of road. Just a 2 lane road. After I passed they immediately started to follow me and preceded to follow me for about 15 minutes.
    I was perfectly fine and legal nothing to worry about, but I didn't feel like dealing with any pigs so I was on my way directly out of their jurisdiction, not 500ft from the line when they pulled me over for a license plate light. Only one of my two license plate lights was working.
    I know why they pulled me over, because I was driving a spray bombed 1990 f150 at night in a industrial area.
    They held me for over an hour. I had about eight old beat up dish network satellites and they were sweating it. Trying to call the guy that owned the place, wrote down a crap ton of info then let me go. They made me give them my cell phone number lol! I said call me if ya got some scrap you need gone.
