Fun time. I know the OP irl.
GOD DAMMIT NIC. QUIT BEING SUCH A FUCKING EMO BITCH AND GET OVER IT!
You came crying to me months ago about this girl and I'm going to tell you the same thing now that I did then. You currently have no desire that I know of to actually make something with your life. You're doing nothing in a small town in Alabama and a crying over a girl that is also doing nothing with her life. Do you REALLY want this with your life? Living in a tiny ass town where no one cares to better their own or other peoples lives? Go man up, get some sort of goals, have ambition, and find a girl that is actually worth a damn. NO GIRL THAT IS WORTH IT WILL EVER LIKE YOU UNTIL YOU DO!
Just take the damn restraining order, cut all ties with the girl, get the fuck out of Wetumpka (or whatever small as town you live in) and go do something. I've known you for years and will do whatever I can to help you, but god dammit man take the first fucking step.
Hmm sending random text messages in the middle of the night isn't exactly helping your cause. Move on. You may have potentially fucked up your life pretty badly now because you just couldn't let it go. Don't put the pussy on a pedestal. Good luck man.
"It's not me, it must be everyone else!"
OP is a fucking retard. Restraining orders are just another way of saying I love you. Man up and start banging the mom and daughter and get it on tape and sell it.
should go visit the ex and exsmom after you get out to say high
I am just amazed something thinks they can tell a mom about her daughter's cum and not expect the mom to retaliate in some way. The texting was retarded, but yes I'm sure tons have done it from bad breakups. What you said to the mom was just plain stupid.
Also, was the ex still under 18 when you said this? You are retarded if so.
Well shit, i'm a tard................ but then again i'm bias too heh
Anyways, you fucked up. Yes, you harassed her........ yes the arrest is legit, because you broke the law (which all states have different harassment laws). Doesn't matter if you believe its a good use of the law system, or a good use of police because both systems are doing their job.
Hire a lawyer, plead your case to the judge or ADA (AND NOT BG!) and don't comment about either the girlfriend or mother.
Can always rely on jmc to come and educate fuckers who should know shit.
Why in the hell would you hire a lawyer to fight a petty misdemeanor? The people suggesting to get a lawyer are essentially suggesting you to take a substantial amount of cash for most 20 year olds and throw it in the toilet to flush.
That and if he was arrested without a warrant, they could have just subpeona'd him, without probable cause or evidence then he can turn around and sue the state and complainant for damages.
A night in jail over text messages and a phone call ( if he's telling the truth ) is pretty dramatic and cruel and unusual punishment. You don't go to jail if someone wants to serve a restraining order against you.
He'll be required to say about 5 sentences in court...
...maybe I am giving him too much credit.
Considering he stormed out of the thread when he didn't hear what he wanted, I wouldn't be surprised if he tried to storm out of the courtroom during his case. Hearing a lawyer telling him to get his shit in line might actually be well worth the money.
Edit: I agree with you though, a lawyer isn't completely necessary here, but shit is situational.
You don't know the details nor do I. Witnessed personal harassment is a slam dunk for a prosecutor. Text messages and a phone call? Not so much. There's a process to determine if actual harassment is taking place and usually a restraining order is the first thing recommended by law enforcement before dispatching an officer to make an arrest and do all sorts of paperwork.
someone correct me if I'm wrong, but at the time of the incident he stated he was 18 (or older) and she was still 17. If I remember right doesn't matter if they dated, it would still be considered harassing a minor, so that might be the reason for it being taken seriously.
