I just went to a city hall meeting tonight regarding a ticket I received in this speed trap. The officer stated that he clocked me driving 50 in a 30 mile zone. He said he clocked me as he was leaving Sonic Drive-In.
I arrived and the judge looked like he just got off of work from a day job and there were two Tiptonville police officers present. None of the above mentioned even had a copy of my ticket. But they said I was "last on the list" whatever that meant as I was the only defendant present. Their jaws dropped to the floor when I stated I wanted a jury trial afforded to me by the US Constitution. and I wanted to schedule a "discovery" with the prosecution's witness. The group, obviously confused, tried to explain why attending a real court would not be my best option. They explained that I should just plead guilty even though I didn't believe I was guilty! They even agreed to drop my ticket to 39 mph in a 30 mph to keep from receiving points on my license and they reduced the fine. Oh yeah and they even offered me a slow pay arrangement. Now thats small-town justice huh?
