I had several drinks but was still on my feet walking home down Nieto. Same story, but I was actually walking home (2 blocks) from the bar around 2am and got picked up 100 feet from my door. I Got thrown in the "refrigerator" which was COLD, and didn't get released until 3pm the next day.I heard from others that they deliberately do this to help sober up faster, like taking a cold shower. While in the holding area, I also chatted with the inmates and found that most of them were snagged off of 2nd street. Apparently LBPD does this often, and targets holidays. In the end I got a lawyer, still lost, paid the find and had to do community service as well as take some alcohol classes. LBPD really sucks, they are a corrupt department. It would be AWESOME if a local news station like Fox or NBC go undercover and stroll 2nd street completely sober with hidden camera people all around, then see if the get snagged, then to see on the 10 o'clock news. For me, this one incident really fucked me up mentally, I no longer go bar hopping or even drink outside my house in fear of the LBPD. Over the years they have gotten nasty in the ways they bust people, from special traffic enforcement programs, saturation patrols, ticketing bicyclists, pretty much anything, almost communist like. F*** the LBPD, they're the real criminals. Ben, this happened to me back in 2008, the night of Halloween. I had several drinks but was still on my feet walking home down Nieto.

I was just harrassed, given 6 drug tests in the middle of the street, Guns pointed in my face, told numerous times to shut the fuck up, told I was under the influence of a controlled substance at 4 in the morning while on my way to do community service. I am not the greatest writer but this is the second DAMN time these cops have screwed my life up!! I just need someone to listen and regain control of my life from them. If you could help me or know of someone who can that would be the biggest break I have had in 8 years since they first took my world from me. Look forward to hearing from you soon and very sorry for your experience with these EVIL criminals I mean cops. contact number 714-317-6374 Wow this is AMAZIING!!!!!!!
