arrested over the weekend for pointing a weapon (misdemeanor), but I didn't have a weapon... Wacko charge, but since they said I did it, the officer had to arrest me. The police report is very favorable, stated that I nor my property (hotel room) had no weapon, I was compliant, and not under the influence of anything. It seems like I shouldn't worry, but of course I got arrested (first time ever) and I am not akin to courts... So any input? Thanks guys. |

The main thing is to get with a lawyer ASAP. Other then that brainstorm if you have any favorable witnesses, was there a camera that might have recorded it, were there any locations where there might have been witnesses, things like that. |

Got a good lawyer, hopefully this will work itself out and the DA won't press charges.

These situations can take a while to play out, just because charges have been filed early on doesn't mean the DA will stick with the case. |

You will get a preliminary hearing soon. You will learn a great deal about the case against you then. |

Bullshit. It takes 12 people to convict you beyond a reasonable doubt. Presumption of innocence is with you. I don't seeing 12 people believing the prosecution unless you left something out. |
