Put on a wig and let them arrest you.
Then sue them for false arrest.

It might have been a fabrication on the cop's part too.

The theory of course is that more stops = more busts = more $. Pull you over, hope they can smell weed/alcohol,call for a dog to get prob cause, search your car. So as long as a lot of police officers can justify pulling you over, they will.

So do you think I shouldn't worry too much about what "warrants" are out against my plates, and just chalk it up to having to deal with a cop who was out trolling for a catch? |

Was this cop following you for a long time or not?

I've never heard of a warrant being issued against a set of license plates.

No, but it is an example of why running LEA's as a for-profit agency (I.E. getting to keep confiscated cash/cars/etc.) can be a dangerous policy. Most cops are honest. Those that are not are very dangerous to the public, and can use forfiture laws to line their departments (and their own?) pockets. JMO.

I wonder if getting this information and (assuming it is false as you expect) passing it along to the Chief in the town would cause any issues for him. If the Chief doesn't care, the town council might like to hear about the bs being pulled by their department. |
