    Have You Ever Been In Jail?

    And if so, any details you care to share with the rest of the class?

    Nope, never been.

    If you lined up my co-workers and I and tried to pick out who's been to jail, you'd probably pick me, with the hair and the biker-type thing. I've never been to jail, never been arrested. Was close, once, for skinny-dipping. Skated out of that one, though, so to speak.
     
    Among co-workers I have known, several have been in for DUI. One was in prison for forgery/ identity theft. Another served 8 out of 25 to life for manslaughter.

    That is sort of the reason I asked, Ron.  We were just talking about this today.  There are 8 guys that work here and I am the only one who has never been in jail. 
     
    I have been handcuffed twice (by cops, Mark).  That is as close as I have come.  Once for possession of marijuana and once for carrying a loaded firearm in the vehicle.

    Sorry to disappoint you, Billy.  Never been in jail, and over 1 million safe miles in a TT, without a single overweight fine.  [:D]

    That, no doubt, is because your dispatcher would give the REAL loads to the men who could handle it.  [;)]

     i was pulled over in the middle of a city,ordered out of the car,hands on the roof,and had multiple guns pointed at me...(mistaken identity)

     I had a troopers shotgun pointed in my face late at night in my back yard,my buddy was taken away that night,i got to stay home..

     never arrested,no jail time...never got caught and have repented my sins..[:)]

    P.S..Billy,handcuffs arent just for getting arrested anymore!!

    Well, a qualified "yes". When I was on internship in Memphis (psychologist) I worked with the police dept. in a  program they have there (which has been copied in many other cities too) for helping the police deal with mentally ill people. So I did interviews at the jail, did a ride along with an officer and toured the jail. Shook hands with a mass murderer. Pleasant enough fellow. Also did a tour of a nearby prison and sat in on a sex offender group as part of a child abuse training program I did. Not pleasant enough fellows.

    I've been arrested, but did not go to jail.   It was a traffic violation, nothing dramatic, and I was 17.

    Heck no! The very thought makes my stomach hurt!
     
    Most of my contact with the police have been positive as in I called them for something and they took care of it....and were very nice about it [;)]

    maybe it is a male thing, but the thoughts of going to jail make another part of my anatomy hurt just thinking about it! [:D]

    I have been in and out of one quite a few times, but that's only because both Brett and my brother are cops. So I often meet Brett at the jail to bring him lunch. And a few months ago, I had to go there to get fingerprinted for a job. It's definitely not a place I want to be, especially if I can't keep my own underwear.[8D]
