“Oh yeah, it costs some people a lot. And, I mean, look, it’s, unfortunately, these laws are misused. And a lot of times, women, or even men, they call the police because they’re in a fight with someone they want to get. You know, they use our criminal justice system as a way for their own personal revenge, and their social lives. And those cases we’re able to fight, and usually are… just preposterous. But at the time that the officer is faced with that, he doesn’t know what to do. So, he arrests them.”
