Can anybody actually recite the alphabet backwards? (Without practice.) Another test I'd fail.

Nope, would never tell you that. It's just that people who are drunk only THINK they can dance this well.sjfcontrol wrote:Aww, Keith! Next you'll be telling us there is no Santa Clause, or Tooth Fairy!Keith B wrote:And of course, not real.

No, it's not entrapment, but I believe that this happens often in this type of situation.sjfcontrol wrote:Ignoring the issue of medical problem v.s. intoxication -- they asked her to step out on her porch, then arrested her for public intoxication. Isn't that entrapment? They asked her to step outside just so they could get her in a "public" place (still on her own property), to make it illegal so they could arrest. Seems pretty smarmy to me.
Why not? They are asking the person to do something illegal, then arresting them for it.

Asking someone to go outside isn't illegal. If they ordered her to go out, maybe. Maybe one of the LEOs or lawyers can give you a better answer. I just know that this isn't the first time this has happened. I believe it is standard practice.sjfcontrol wrote:Why not?
