You are not required to be informed of a crime you are being charged with until arraigned so no big deal hereardav;3301328]Nothing a cop says would surprise me, I was never told the probable cause, I kept asking for what crime/ suspicion I was being detained and not free to go. No one gave a clear answer.
then go and defend yourself with: I was holding an empty cup. It was empty when I walked from the private property.Neither RSO nor the cops see a filled cup in my hand.
then figure out what you are going to say when the witness says he saw you dump the contents on the ground.
nobody said you wereI am not acting drunk, no one accused me of being "drunk"
but if you were drinking, you did smell of alcohol.or smelling alcohol
moot point nowI had literally at most 1 finger (sorry for keep using that term) of coke in the cup, come on now, how can I keep it, store it and get it tested?
yet you felt the need to dump it on the ground. Good luck with that story.Here are more details about the drinking of that night. I have had 2-3 Tecate lights at home between 6-8 then I have been at some other friends house from 8:30 to 11 where I drink one cup of beer from a keg and 2 vodka cranberries, and we arrived to that final place by midnight where I had 1 large redbull with little vodka in a cup . And kept drinking and refilling it with coke couple times till 1AM (cups are precious in those parties you know ). By the time I was outside it contained no alcohol.
it escalated because you were dumb.I might agree with the RSO, if you see a guy holding a cup outside a party and tosses it, chances are it is alcohol, but in this case it is not, that's also why I acted the way I acted. I am sitting by myself at the end of the night, not in a party mode anymore, not acting drunk, and this all escalated because I tried to exercise my right.
.I guess you get to find out if you wish to argue the citation.I am wondering what their claims are going to be for "drinking in public". Because there is no drinking activity let alone drinking alcohol
