OK. I am wording this thoroughly because I did not word it correctly before. My neighbor is my boyfriends cousin. Well, the daughter of my neighbor is. Anyways. She was over to my house earlier in the day because she said her step dad was starting to pick a fight with her mom. We went to the store, and came back. She brought some food for her mom and went back to the house to bring it to her. Her mom was there but her SD wasn't. Her mom was crying. Her SD went INTOXICATED to his "mommy and daddy's" to go talk to them. They convinced him to *call the police* because he claims she scratched him down his chest.(He also slammed his fist into her elbow hitting it against the wall leaving a bruise) Their dog had jumped in the middle of them to try and stop the fight. (The dog has some friggin raptor claws).
Once the police arrived. One good cop, mind you I live in a small town and the cops are terrible around here, and one bad cop. They call for backup on a routine for traffic violations...it's pretty insane. Her SD claims that his girlfriend scratched him down his chest.****He also claims she wouldn't let him use the phone.**** They have TWO cell phones and a land line. He threw his phone down in a temper tantrum and it wouldn't work.
So once his MOMMY arrives, she calls the cops from across the street. (mind you he's around 40 years old... and 6'4"-big enough to handle his own).
So the "bad cop" (he had a very nasty attitude against BF's cousins mom, even though she was crying and upset), she states to him that the dog scratched him trying to break up the fight. The officer snottily says "Those AREN'T scratches from a dog" with a serious quite aggravated facial expression. WHO IS HE to say they were dog or human scratches? Is he a doctor? Is he a criminal investigator? Not in my small town he sure isn't! But anyways. The other cop was very respectful and sympathetic and nice. I don't believe that personal opinions need to play a roll in officers judgement. But I'm blabbing. Anyways she goes to jail for DV and "TELECOMMUNICATIONS INTERFERENCE" (not allowed to use the phone) I honestly cannot believe this. He's being rediculous. But in our state apparently this is considered a felony. And I know I shouldn't be involved, but I had no choice, the daughter came crying to me, and the mom came to my house as well. But I want to know if anyone has ever heard of this law? It sounds rediculous to me, especially when they have three phones total! As well as neighbors all around where he could call from. HELP?!
