Hello, yes, i was recently pulled over, i would say about a month ago, and unfortunately, for some reason the cop felt the need to search my buddies car ( i am passenger) so my buddie concents to searching the car, and they take him out, after a breif pat down he is placed on the side walk, i am taken out of the car and the officers did the same brief patt down, and felt an object underneath my clothing, I tryed to tell the officer that he was hurting me , and instead of stopping, he reaches down my pants and pulled out unfortunately, some bag of illicit contraband. so i come here to ask, a question. after the officer found that. i was placed under arrest and braught to the station, they asked me my name address basic info, But (this is key) i clearly remember the sargent, asking me if i took any perscription drugs, I being a bit shook up, said no of course not , i do not take perscription drugs, ( as if he meant abuse them., i.e taking pills not perscribed to me) but than (this is the funny part) he specifically asked me , no, to you need to take and meds, as in for and conditons, i told him that i did take an anti convulsant perscription, for a very serious condition, and he asked do i need them right now and i said my usual dossage is before i go to bed, so it depends on how long im here, he said ok, we'll take care of that, then then proceeded to interogate me, telling me the weight of my contraband, and I asked to see it and they reply "no, our equiptment is right on, you don't need to see it" and futher questioned me for probably 1 to 1 1/2 hours, keep in mind we were pulled over and i was arrested at 11:20 pm and i was finally put in a holding cell with no requested drink of water, NO ANTI CONVULSANT PILLS, and no phone call to anyone, wich i asked for very politely many times, so after this i am released all of the sudden at 5:30am on a Prommise to Appear, nearly 6 hours later, not having my medication, luckily nothing happened to me medically, but i can , at the snapof a finger have 25 doctors get it in writing that it is imperitive to me health and safety that i be on his medication, consistantly, due to a condition, and sudden stop of this medication is not good at all either, i was wondering if this could possibly be grounds to file a law suit againts the towns police department, overall I wasn't impressed with the police task force in this particular area, they could care less about anything, very sloppy i believe.
