My brother was arrested last night. He is 18, and doesnt have a license. He was out riding his bike at about 10, going to a friend's house, and he got pulled over for not having a headlight on his bike. Thats understandable, so give him a ticket, right? well he was wearing camo pants, as he always does, and a grey tshirt, so they asked if they could search his backpack. he said yes, having nothing to hide. they found his gloves that he usually wears when he is riding his bike long distances (which he wasnt, so he didnt wear them) and his baton, which he carries at all times because there are some punks in the neighborhood that take every opportunity to mess with him. It's perfectly legal, he made sure of that before he bought it. Well, the cops found those things and arrested him!! on 'suspicion of grand theft auto'. is that enough for suspicion of grand theft auto? he was just out going to a friends house!! they are pressing charges and he has a court date next month and a hefty fine or jail time to serve. what do we need to do to get out of this with just a no headlight ticket?
