    Speak Up! - View Question #515


    printer friendly version

    Question: If a minor is caught with alcohol and the police officer writes down their name but does not take them to the police station, will this go on their record?

    Answer: The police officer has several choices in this case. Sometimes a warning is given and nothing else is done. Sometimes the name is put on a 'field card' which is used to keep track of people who frequently cause problems. The officer might also choose to write a report about the incident and then give the report to juvenile court. If through juvenile court some type of consequences are given for the offense, the record will show the consequences and will also show the person's level of cooperation.

    You want to play like an adult, you will pay like an adult..almost..if you think fines, court fees, etc. are bad for an MIP...wait til you get charged as an REAL adult. BSing will only get you so far. Our daughter is facing her 3rd MIP offense. All A student,popular and very pretty..but her BSing and luck have finally run out. In violation of her MP probation, she is looking at jail time and some hefty fines. She was to start college this fall & just moved to her 1st apt. Likely will loose her job. All for the sake of a drink. YOU WANT TO PLAY..BE PREPARED TO PAY WHEN YOU GET CAUGHT!

It was bad but i had like 20 beers but later around midnight i hear kids yell cops i go to hide because i'm on probation .. The cop found me told me to go down stairs and give my ID to the other cop, (btw there was only 2 cops) He looked at it and gave it back? Will my probation officer find out? Will i go to jail? If so how long due to violation of probation but i dont think they knew that?!
