I don't know if it's appropriate for these forums, but I've got something I just have to share, and as this is the Off-Topic area, I thought I'd give it a try.

Arrested someone this morning on an outstanding warrant for Violation of Probation. We're transporting him to the magistrates office to have a bond set before he goes to jail, and we're reading the violations to him listed on the warrant. One of the main reasons his probation is being violated, is that he has pending charges for Strong Armed Robbery, which he has already been arrested on, and released on bail.

When asked about the Strong Armed Robbery, he states, and I quote.."Aww man, that charge is bogus....my cousin went and swore out a statement against me for that warrant, cause he didn't want to pay me the $200 he owes me for 'weed'..."

::Blink::

My partner and I look at each other, somewhat in disbelief. Surely he didn't just say that in front of the two of us, while he's already in handcuffs....

But sure enough, he goes on to state that he's just being honest, that's the whole reason his cousin's mad at him, he owes him $200 for 'weed', and he had cut him off and told him he couldn't have any more until he came up with the $200 he owed him already.

I hope the Narc boys have fun serving that search warrant
