Illegal stop sign ??? Ticket ??? MUTCD code violated???

[ATLANTACHUCK]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Georgia

a well-known, well-established traffic trap in the Decatur area where we live as you turn right off North Druid Hills onto Clairmont (heading south toward the VA Hospital and Emory University).

I ALWAYS make sure I come to a complete stop.

When I saw the police car parked at his usual spot on Clairmont, I thought nothing about it as I expect him to be there...until he turned on his flashing lights and pulled me over several blocks past the stop.

Is this Stop legal in the MUTCD code ??
How do I fight it ?

1: Why wouldn't it be legal?

2: Prove you stopped.

What does this have to do with the MUTCD? What was the problem with the sign?

This shows nothing useful - just a list of 4 pages worth of possible locations. I don't think anyone here is going to bother trying to figure out which is the one you mean.

No offense, but about 99.9% of people I stop for the same violation insist that they stopped.

OP was heading east and made a turn to the south.
