“Nope. Few people get in their car, drive to another parking lot (the same one every time) and sit there through their lunch hour.
Never going in, never getting out of their car, just sitting there.”
There are lots of things that people do that “few people” do. A police officer with an ounce of judgement would have let this slide with an admonishment to stop making people suspicious in the neighborhood. Of course if this “criminal” had any balls at all he would have fought this.....and the “victim”....oh, that’s right....there IS no victim.
Considering the quality of the bureaucracy -- from the cop to the chief to the DA -- I would have copped a plea, as well.
