OT: Embarassing Legal Question
I know probably a lot of people are going to read this because "embarassing" is in the subject line but here goes. This morning the girlfriend and I were in the back seat of my grandmother's Cadillac (Porsche is just way too small) in a park parking lot. Anyway, I had taken my shoes off to get comfortable and I was sitting there holding her and talking to her. Well anyway, next thing I know the car is lit up and a cop is standing there shining a flash light into the car. So I'm struggling to put my shoes back on and I get out of the car and she does as well. He asks for ID but she doesn't have any and I give him my drivers license. Next he asks if shes there on her own consent and she tells him yes twice since he asked twice. So he asks for her name and her birthdate and where she lives. All the while I'm just standing next to the car waiting to see how this thing plays out. She asks the cop if I can take her home and the cop gets irritated at that question. So anyway the cop is threatening to arrest her for God knows what. He gives me my license back and tells us to get out of there and that the park is closed. This "park" is basically one giant parking lot that the hospital employees use to park and shuttle to work from so there are no gates or anything. Basically, my question is can they do anything to me or her now? He didn't give me a citation for anything. He didn't write down my license number. I think the other cop that was in another car there ran the tag number. But basically he just told us to get out. My girlfriend is 17 and I'm 18. We weren't breaking curfew or doing anything wrong. I think the only thing they could have gotten us for is loitering but too late for that now. Any ideas???

Yeah sure you were...
but seriously, many of us have been caught in the same situation. The cops were probably caught in the same situation when they were your age. They just like to break *****. Don;t worry about it, nothing will happen.

Wait, I forgot my obligitory OT posting (sorry!, I must be slipping):
In the beginning, there were cavemen.
As the centuries passed, the cavemen began to develop a rudimentary language. After several eons, this became Latin, and people traded in their bearskins and loincloths for togas.
After a very, very, very long time, the people became bored with the play-acting they did in the very old "theaters" they built, and so fashioned an ancient kind of paintbrush and created art. Some time later, musical instruments came into being; still later, music. There were now five or six different languages in the world, including Greek and Spanish.
After many more centuries, people became more civilized than ever before, no longer sporting togas, but a more modern form of clothing such as shirts and pants. The pilgrims set sail from Europe to discover the New World and kill all of the Indians who lived there. The new people named their land the United States of America. All of the countries were involved in World Wars, and eventually a child by the name of Gary Coleman was born. Gary spent several years as the star of his own TV sitcom.

When I was 18, I had the same cop pull my g/f out of the same car in two entirely different neighborhoods to make sure she was OK. In that case, they ordered me (using the PA system) to stay in the car while she got out and walked over to his car to tell him she was OK.
EDIT: I forgot to mention it was on TWO CONSECUTIVE NIGHTS.
You need to find a new neighborhood to park in.
