Far as I know, Craig has not said the policeman lied.
If there is a case to be made on Craig’s behalf, it’s for him to do so, and so far he hasn’t.
Whether or not Craig has acted like a guilty man, is open to dispute. But he sure hasn’t acted like an innocent one. Pleading guilty to a lesser charge without much of a push, and then resigning from the US Senate about as readily; would you say he’s just shy or easily manipulated?
The police tactics seem somewhat unfair - playie footsie is hardly illegal. If they catch two guys in a stall it is one thing but hardly seems fair to charge someone for making goo goo eyes and playing footsie.
That's why you get a lawyer up front. That taped conversation we all heard would not have happened.
