Officer 86

While I've been reminiscing over my court appearance, I had a flashback from the Village Idiot. For those new to my blog, I am referring to the McAdoo Parking Gnome on the left, taunted in the paper as McAdoo's savior. I do not know the man personally, but I have met many like him over the years—someone who would screw you in a heartbeat just for a "that a boy" and a pat on the head.

Picture this: I'm sitting on the bench in the waiting room in Tarentelli's court, minding my own business with thousands in fines for something that I did not do when the Gnome waddles over, sits down next to me, and with a grin says, "Now we’ll leave you alone for a while."

If that isn’t an admission of MPD harassment, it leads me to believe that it was all orchestrated and that if I jump through enough hoops, I might live a normal life in corrupt McAdoo.
