I did a search for "jail" and read a buncha post but nothing real significant poped up in my search
So i decided to make a thread,an maybe it will help some first timers.
What im asking for from you guys
is to share ur experiance that ended up with u (or ur road dog) going to jail for whatever reason (bogus or not)

Found an abandoned building with the doors unlocked and decided to sleep there during a storm and somebody called the owner who shows up and wakes me up at gun point and then calls the police who arrested me and I ended up in jail for the weekend.

What was the bail?/How much time were you locked in?

Was looking for a place to crash late one night, so I decided on walking to a motel my friend was staying at. The walk was no short journey under the influence; (probably six-eight mile to a suburb north of the city) . I of course had my "day" bag with me that carried my personal belongings, my "tool" or knife strapped to my side, was holding a tall boy in one hand and for the love of I don't know what I decided to wave my hand at the next oncoming vehicle to catch a ride and lo and behold it was a Sherriff.
I realized as soon as I waved my hand I'd be stopped, and at that point didn't care. So I continued to walk and starting chuggin' the tall boy (my last for a week or two), then the reds and blues kicked on. I just kept walking amidst the hails of "sir, stop." I didn't either turn around but in an instant the Sherriff was on me, had me cuffed, was rampaging through my bag, and All I was concerned about was my "tornados" from speedway getting smashed. They confiscated my knife which was a six inch fixed blade, and got my on carrying a concealed weapon and public intox. Surprisingly they didn't get me for resisting though. In the end, spent a week in jail because I didn't bail out...

Don't remember what the bail was and I spent the weekend in jail. The police officer was cool said he would have just chased me off if it hadn't been for the owner who was not cool and the judge was cool and said time served. I was arrested Friday night if it had happen in the middle of the week I would have spent the night or two in jail. It still sucked though and I haven't been in jail since then, this happen in 2010.

Aside from public intox and waking up in the drunk tank, a couple come to mind. One in st.Augustine, fl - owner of a liquor store called the cops on us because I wouldn't leave his storefront (it wasn't time for him to close, he just didn't like the way we looked and wouldn't let us in). cop comes and tells me I'm trespassed, so I start walkin down the sidewalk and as he's drivin away I yell something like "Fuck the police". He comes to a screetching halt, backs up really quick, and pushes me up against the cop car in handcuffs. Stupid, I know. Drunk, I was.
And in Idaho somewhere, I think, I had stolen a case of beer out the back of a delivery truck but stopped to talk to a van full of Jehovah's Witnesses afterwards (don't ask me why), while my friends waited under an overpass by the tracks. Cops found us and we all spent a few nights in jail. Stupid, I know. Drunk, I was.

I got hauled back to HS for ditching school to go get drunk and lucky (boom chicka wow wow) at a house party....(Got so fucking loud and rowdy... some spaz neighbor musta called the POPO) that was nice. They packed all of us from different HS's in separate paddy wagons. Then I got in-school suspension for I can't remember how long. In-school suspension is kinda like the slammer.

Does this count? ::eyepatch::

Busted 2-3 times riding the Portland MAX without valid fare - 4 days jail 20 hours community service, and $900+ in fines. I am now afraid to go back to OR.

Pulled off a train in Tacoma WA, with a czech switchblade in my pocket - 3 days and $500+ fines. This is the one that is making employment opportunities pretty bleak.

Yeah severin, the fines have me too; never pay them and most likely never will either. All together my fines from court cases still open tally somewhere around a grand. Nowadays, I invest some of my time in reading/learning the local laws so that I may talk my way from law enforcement or from being tried; though with just being prudent in my daily adventures I may avoid contact all together...

Ive only been arrested once, shoplifting, assault and possession of a dangerous weapon. Got off with only ten hours of community service because im a minor.
The whole situation was stupid. If i wasn't dehydrated and hungry i would have realized that they were waiting outside and also wouldn't be dumb enough to throw a can at the loss prevention guy.
