I live in Oklahoma and around the middle of October I was stopped at an unmarked checkpoint off of the main road in Pawnee county. After taking my license and insurance they asked me to step out of my car and when I asked them if there was a problem they replied "We've had a lot of problems with drug activity in this area". They did find me in posession of a water pipe and rolling papers. However, I was not issued a ticket. Instead the officer gave me one week to come up with information on dealers in Pawnee county and in return he said that he would not turn my case into the DA. Here in lies the problem. I emailed the officer with information about a meth lab down the street from my house and yet Saturday I received a letter Saturday that I was supposed to be in court the previous thursday. I then callled the DA's office and explained my situation and their response was to turn myself in. I was under the impression that checkpoints had to be posted (the officers didn't even have their lights on) and I had to be issued a ticket to be summoned to court. Is this true?
