The cynic in me thinks, 'yeah, right'. Too many times I've seen cops get away with sh*t like this just because they wear a badge, and judges seem to think that makes them unimpeachable. (I once fought a traffic ticket in court, and the officer stood before the judge and told THREE outright lies under oath. I had to pay not only the fine, but court costs as well, still got the points on my license, and lost a day of work in the bargain...so why fight it, just mail the ticket in with the fine, right?) I live in OH, and I've only been to PA on three occasions (two of them were Pittsburgh). EVERY TIME, I was stopped on some bullshit charge and hassled by cops. Ohio cops are assholes, to be sure, but if I had to go to New York from here, I'd go around PA. The thought of carrying a weapon in that state with an OH license plate makes me shudder.

Does that answer any questions? A.J your looking at a lawsuit.Me personally I would be after badges these cops need to understand they are not above the law nor are they above the constitution.
