2. Failure to Comply w/ Photos & Fingerprints
The story:
It was 2:00 AM, I was walking back to my beach house with my Pizza I had just bought, and I ran into my roommate on my street with three females that he met. They had just left a party and my roommate introduced me to the girls and I invited them all to come back to my place to hang out. I go inside, my roommate turns on our TV with music, I went to the bathroom.
A police officer who was patrolling my street saw us group together in the middle of the street and walk back to my beach house. He parked his paddy wagon outside, called for backup and they stormed the front door, knocking, assumed that me, my roommate and the girls were going to a party or something. I come out of the bathroom and the Police start firing a bunch of questions at me, shining flashlights in my property. I step outside and shut the door and start to comply and see what the police wanted. All three cops were yelling questions, telling me I'm having an out of control party, they can hear the music from 50ft away, etc. (remember: I just got back to my house, 3 minutes later, the cops came).
I was trying to explain to the police that I had just got back from getting Pizza, and I am about to head to bed (It's 2:00AM!) My roommates and two females came out and starting talking to the cops. The girls and my roommate did drink that night, and were getting into conversations with the cops telling them nothing is going on here. The cops only gave attention to just me and they said no, we need you to get a breathalysers and get your fingerprints, and to step outside to the van now. They told me things like I know the landlord, I can get you all evicted, and all this stuff.
I asked for him to explain to me what is going on. He wouldn't tell me and his response was to "Come out to the van." I asked for him again to explain, because I clearly wasn't doing anything wrong. I didn't want to just give myself over to the police like this. I asked him why again and then he just said, "I'm going to have to ask you to put your hands behind your back."
I get escorted in handcuffs to the van, and thrown in jail, handcuffed my hands and leg to the chair. My roomates bailed me out @ 7:00am
The police wrote on the report, that they had responded to a large party with a large amount of people with loud music, and I was belligerent and had a very strong odor of alcohol and that I wouldn't do what they said.
Court is coming up soon.
What should I do in court? I never have been in trouble.

- I didn't host a party.
- There was no alcohol to be found on my property.
- They did not read me my rights or tell me I was being arrested.
- They told me I didn't have to take the breathalyser, so i told them no.
- Before jail, they took me to a Correctional Institute to get my fingerprints and photos.
- The location under both charges is the wrong address. The house # is wrong. (False charges?)
What should I do in court? I never have been in trouble.
