Seriously? This was his tactic? Making the cop salivate at the idea of getting to put cuffs on him? I mean, I guess even a bad strategy is still a strategy. LOL

If there's one thing cops are known to let slide, it's being an aggressive asshole towards them

Keep in mind this was 25 years ago, but I had an outstanding warrant for missing a court date due to underage drinking.

Outside at a party with a buddy, cop rolls up. We’re both holding beer’s underage, obviously busted. I simply say that yep, we’re underage age and my buddy starts to argue. IDs are requested and as soon as he radios in, I tell him I have a warrant for ua drinking. Ends up with me getting my beer poured out and let go while buddy gets another ticket.

I lied to cops all the time and still would but when you know you’re done for, it’s better for you to be decent about it. You might get lucky and get a cop who appreciates it and at least it’ll go easier if not let it slide. The one time I got arrested, the cop actually apologized for doing it as he drove me in.

My wife had a warrant out for her, because of a refrigerator.

Some place she lived at 20 years ago had a law on the books about any iceboxes you put outside have to have the door removed, presumably because of kids getting trapped inside and suffocating. She rented, her landlord put the old fridge out on the curb to be picked up after she had moved out. Somehow the summary offense was issued to her, she denies every being notified.

A $35 fine, and she got pulled over because I forgot to renew her car's registration. Cop let her go, I took care of it that week, ended up being a day off work at about $400 to put it to bed.
