Couple Who Catch Cop Speeding Could Face Charges

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the turnabout-isn't-fair-play dept.

a_nonamiss writes "A Georgia couple, apparently tired of people speeding past their house, installed a camera and radar gun on their property. After it was installed, they caught a police office going 17MPH over the posted limit. They brought this to the attention of the local police department, and are now being forced to appear in front of a judge to answer to charges of stalking."

    Well, you could always, CONTACT BARTOW COUNTY MAGISTRATE COURT and give them a piece of your mind!

    I think that anyone who feels this is injustice has an obligation as a citizen to contact the office of their elected or representative official and tell them they will not stand for this kind of tyranny!

    If the police serve me badly, what can I do? Move to another town.

    Gotta love that American law, where someone can charge somebody accusing them (with evidence) of breaking the law
