If it gets that far. Nothing frosts me worse than having a prosecutor deal away charges for a next-to-nothing plea... or having them can good charges because the guy went into rehab... or...

I think the best (read: worst) one I ever dealt with was a guy I stopped for a traffic infraction who lied to me about his name because he was a prohibited driver. My 'spidey sense' was working overtime so I kept questioning him at the roadside. After catching him in a couple of inconsistent answers, he admitted he was using his brother's name so I arrested him for misdemeanor impersonation. The prosecutor tossed the charge because she felt that being caught and admitting his guilt was disincentive enough so he would never offend again.
