    Post: I called the police for help and they arrested me

    Posted by MJ on 11/12/03


    I called the county police and ask them if I could get an
    policeman to meet me at a ranch to get my property. I
    didn't think there would be a problem but ask them for
    help. The police said no. The next day I went to the
    ranch and called the DPS and ask for a policeman to come.
    The DPS dispatched the officer who had said no the day
    before and he was mad at me. The ranch was closed and we
    left. About an hour later I passed the policeman on the
    road and he pulled me over. He ask me for my Insurance and
    as I was looking for it he arrested me for no insurance,
    crossing the white line and baracading the road with my
    car. I was on a rural road and it there was no sholder. I
    had two dogs in the car and it was 10:00 am.

    I was taken to jail and spent 29 hours. I am a middle aged
    woman and I am still in shock. I cried the entire time and
    became sick in jail. I had a panic attack and passed out.
    I woke up alone and cold on the jail floor.

    My insurance card was in my car but he was out to put me
    in jail; he told me I should not have called the police to
    help me after he told me not to. He said, "you just had to
    have it your way". After the policeman hand cuffed on hand
    he jerked me and I went face first into the side of the car
    and then to the ground. I am so afraid of the police now.
    I will never call them again. I am looking for a good
    civil rights Lawyer in the Houston area.
