Post: Selective Prosecution

Posted by JJ on 4/02/03
I was camping with my friends and we were all drinking there. One of my friends left and got pulled over for speeding. He and the passenger got MIP's but the girl in the back seat didnt. they two boys in the front were 18 and the girl was 17. The cops let my friend drive off because he did not blow above a .08. The cops came to the camp site and we were all in bed. They got us out of our tents and asked if we have been drinking. We said "yes." the cops said they have a "ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY" for anyone who had been drinking. they said anyone who had been drinking will get MIP's. He started with the two other guys at the camp site. Without even testing us he gave us MIP's because we said he had been drinking. We were both 18 also. There were 8 girls there that were 16-17 and they all failed the tests. The cops said they would cut us a deal and not issue anymore MIP's. The 4 guys that were camping got MIP's and they were 18. the 8 girls that did not pass the test got off without MIP's they were 16-17 yr. The two cops were both guys. Do we have a selective Prosecution case? Or is it just cops being stupid.
