ROCBillsBeliever Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 My take, from this: Ed Oliver > Marcel Dareus. Enough said. 3
eball Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 Wow, amazing. A black guy wound up being stopped and arrested for no reason. Who’d have thunk it in this day and age? 14 1

I do not believe they can charge someone with a traffic violation based on hearsay (a phoned report) but perhaps I am incorrect here? I personally would not want to be able to be charged with something because Citizen Cathy called the police and reported that I was driving 80 mpg in a 45 mpg zone and driving erratically, unless there were some corroborating evidence of this.

Bss Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 Usually this would be a 4 game suspension, I'll bet the Jets, Dolphins, and Rams have to be pretty pissed about this with how bad their olines are

thebandit27 Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 Good for Ed. He handled the situation perfectly, and now he’s been exonerated by the evidence. 4
Franco_92 Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 Dont blame him for venting there, though I'd encourage him to try and avoid it. He nailed this situation overall. Nice work Ed 3

Most people get screwed in municipal courts. The judge knows the prosecutor, the prosecutor knows the cops, the cops know both. And your defense attorney is usually familiar with them all. Unless you're looking at a license suspension or big DUI fine you're better off pleading guilty, pay the fine, and save the expense of a lawyer that isn't going to do much of anything for you. It comes down to your word against the cops and guess who the judge is going to believe? If there is video it will be supporting their case. If there is video supporting your case it got accidentally erased. The whole thing is a revenue generating racket for the towns. Edited July 22, 2020 by All_Pro_Bills 2

Who’d have thunk it in this day and age? I mean he certainly did have a hard time walking that line for the sobriety test He did look under the influence of something But if you're just that tired where you can't walk straight you probably shouldn't drive Edited July 22, 2020 by Buffalo716
TigerJ Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 I hope that Oliver is a little more careful in the future to not even look like he's engaged in suspicious activity.
Doc Posted July 22, 2020 Posted July 22, 2020 Should have put this in the original thread. That had some comedy gold in it. Anyway, free and clear. Ol' Rog can't do a thing.
