Alan, no disrepect intended towards your. You statement about sitting on bars in Az is quite possible. Here in Ventura County it is quite different. The SO does sit on bars. They have been directly responsible for the closure of several local watering holes. Still, to this day, they sit around the corners from what bars are left. They even stalk the higher end establishments on weekends and do exactly as I said, roust, test, arrest, and write the report. Oh, and the video is never available.....unless it shows the defendant in a bad light. Also, here in VC, 85-90% of the judges are ex DAs, so the deck is stacked against justice most of the time. I dated a para legal, as well as an attorney active in the VC courts and had occasions to review cases for appeals......Wow, what they say is right on, Come to Ventura County on vacation, leave on probation...I remember a case, that was won on appeal, where the defense had photographic proof the SO lied on the report, and on the stand and the judge refused to dismiss.......The 2nd district saw it different.........Oh, the defendant owned a bar, which is now closed due to stalking SOs.......I do not drink and boat.....Used to, no more. I do, as stated several times, limit my consumption and have a cocktail or 3,4 after work occasionally......Over a period of hours, and usually with food.....And last Saturday night I took a cab, again......In contrast to Alan's statement about sitting on bars, the BHC police seem to have a different outlook to that practice along Hancock road at closing time.......I've seen it alot from the PS shop.........Not from the bars parking lots...........Ray
