Drunk Couple Pass-Out at Drive Thru Speaker at FL Steak ‘n Shake, Cops wake them, Passenger Urinates on Himself & Search reveals Cocaine, Marijuana and $1,840.00 in Cash ~ Call Michael A. Haber, Esq. @ 1-888-SHARK-8-1




Orange City, FL police were dispatched to a local Steak 'n Shake after a vehicle had stopped at the drive thru speaker and, well, stayed stopped.





Cops discovered 2 people inside the vehicle.  The driver, 30 year old Erika Nathe of Winter Park, FL and the passenger, 35 year old Luis Otero, of DeLand, FL, were both found passed out in their respective seats in the car (that's not them below... its just an illustration).




The car was stopped outside the speaker which allows customers to make their order and had the window rolled down, but both passengers were passed out.  After waking both individuals (by forcibly shaking them) Otero (the passenger) reportedly told officer that he needed to use the bathroom, at which point he exited the vehicle and urinated in the drive-thru lane.




Otero was promptly arrested for disorderly intoxication and indecent exposure, and a search of his person led to the discovery of cocaine, marijuana and $1,840 in cash rolled up in his pocket (leading to both misdemeanor and felony drug possession charges).  




Erika reportedly told police that she and Otero had been at a bar about a quarter mile from the fast-food restaurant. Although she admitted hat she was too drunk to drive, for reasons unknown, Erika was not arrested for DUI; instead police called a family member to pick her up and drive her home.





Memo to the Folks: See below...

When it comes to the subject of drinking and driving, the best advice that you are ever going to hear is:  "Don't do it!  Get a DD (Designated Driver), not a DUI".


Be smart{er than Erika Nathe}: Don't drink and drive, but, if you do, just say "NO{thing}", don't blow (in FL your 2nd subsequent refusal is a crime) and call me stat at 305-381-8686, 305-798-2220 or 1-888-SHARK-8-1.

Unicorn Escapes from CA Child's Birthday Party, 911 Calls lead Cops, including a CHP Helicopter, on a 3 Hour Pursuit ~ Call Michael A. Haber, Esq. @ 1-888-SHARK-8-1




Meet Juliette, a 20 year old white horse.  That's her below...





No, Juliette is not a unicorn.  But that didn't stop what has been referred to as a "flurry" of 911 calls coming into the California Highway Patrol reporting that there was a unicorn on the loose near a busy road south of Madera, CA.  Per CHP Officer Josh McConnell:  "The calls were coming in as a unicorn running around out there on the roadway" and led to a three hour police search for the mythical creature, which included a CHP helicopter. 






In reality, Juliette, who is reportedly "owned" by five year-old Tatum Boos (pictured below), entertains at kid's birthday parties, and when she does she often impersonates a unicorn by donning a horn on her head as she poses for pictures with children.





According to Tatum's mother, Sandra Boos, Juliette had been out entertaining kids at a birthday party when she got spooked and made a break for it.  Sandra explained that Juliette "was running amok in a couple of orchards with some white blooms, so she kind of blended in with the scenery as well. And she's not real tall, so she turned out to be stealthier than we imagined."  It took the combination of another horse ("Shady" who is a "friend" of Juliette) and the CHP helicopter's spotlight to secure Juliette in police custody.  Per Sandra Boos:  "I think as tense as the situation was, I think it was the comedic relief that was needed at the time. And I laughed and I cried and I thanked God."  





Juliette is now safely back in her stable, but, as you will see from the picture below, 5 year old Tatum is being strict with her beloved friend, stating that:  "I was afraid and then we had to catch her in the dark.  She got a time out because she was being a bad pony."

Cancer Surgeon is Arrested after Ramming a NYPD cop in the Leg with her Volvo while trying to avoid a Double-Parking Ticket in Manhattan ~ Call Michael A. Haber, Esq. @ 1-888-SHARK-8-1



Meet Dr. Rachel Wellner, a breast cancer specialist at Montefiore Hospital, in NYC. That's her below...  She's very pretty isn't she?





The 40 year old Doc wasn't looking quite as glamorous on Thursday, February 18th, 2016 when she was arrested for allegedly rammed a NYPD officer in the leg with her car as she tried to avoid a double-parking ticket in Manhattan.  Per the NYPD the incident began when the Doc saw the cops writing her a summons for double parking her car and the doctor got upset, cursing at the officers and literally jumping onto her car.  The Doc then reportedly got into her car and tried driving off with the driver’s side door open, hitting one of the officers in the shin. The Doc was stopped two blocks way by another police officer, who then arrested her.






The Doc thinks herself to be the victim, telling the New York Post that "I double parked the car and got a ticket".  She claimed to have driven off because "the police used force on me. I was beaten up."  But the cops say that she was belligerent, telling them:  "I'm a doctor.  I have patients that are dying.  I have to go.  I'm the hero and the cops are not.  I do not accept the summons."





The Doc has been charged with resisting arrest, leaving the scene of an accident, reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct.  Per her criminal defense lawyer, Alan Futerfas:  "Obviously a misunderstanding occurred."





Um, yeah... I'd say so.  The misunderstanding is that the Doc did not follow the advise of the Rock...





Memo to the Folks:  This goes to show that cancer surgeon's are not necessarily as smart as either you or I.  If you find yourself on the receiving end of an allegation by law enforcement (whether it's a parking ticket, a DUI investigation, a domestic violence call... whatever the circumstances... when it's you and the cops and you think that they are wrong...) then BE SMARTER than Dr Rachel Wellner and recognize that there is a time, place and manner to attack the bogus charges, and it is never by you in the moment.  My Rx:  Take one of these and call me in the morning!

Man uses White-Out to Alter his Vehicle's License Plate Number; Cops Arrest him and Post Pics on "Chinese Twitter" with Comment that "It is an Insult to our IQ" ~ Call Michael A. Haber, Esq. @ 1-888-SHARK-8-1




Here's a novel one....  A car owner in Chengdu, southwest China was arrested after being stopped for driving a vehicle with a licence plate that had obviously been altered.





To his credit, the Chinese car owner was consistent, altering both the front and rear license plates...





The car owner changed the licence plate numbers from 772 to 998, and act which the local police officer reportedly described as being an "insult to his intelligence".
Apparently these alterations are commonplace in China where vehicles reportedly have to be checked every 15 years and if they fail a check they could be sent to the scrap heap and have their license plates cancelled.  Naturally, some people choose to alter their license plates or buying fraudulent ones in an attempt to keep their cars. But law enforcement agencies and officers are generally not stupid and, knowing that the Chinese New Year is a peak time for police to catch traffic offences as everyone heads to their hometown to spend the festive period with their families, cops were on the lookout.  





As it turns out this particular car owner admitted to using "white out" to alter his license plates.




After arresting the driver the Chengdu Police uploaded the images to their social media account on China's Twitter-like site called "Weibo", prompting citizen replies such as "It looks like the numbers were altered by a child" and "I feel like I've been insulted too".

Character Actor FAIL! Minnie Mouse, Olaf from Frozen and the Cookie Monster are all Arrested in Times Square for Harassing Tourists ~ Call Michael A. Haber, Esq. @ 1-888-SHARK-8-1





Times Square.  Perhaps the best known piece of real estate on the planet.  We all know it.  We all love it.  




And we all share it with dozens, if not hundreds, of character actors.





But recently Minnie Mouse, Olaf from Frozen and the Cookie Monster were all arrested in Times Square by the NYPD for harassing and threatening a tourist for money.





Unfortunately this is not an isolated incident and has been happening with great frequency.  Not too long ago (on December 11, 2015) I blogged about a Times Square "Hulk" who had been arrested for disorderly conduct and obstruction of justice - stemming from an incident with a tourist who didn't want to pay for a photograph - and who (the same human that was donning the Hulk costume) had previously been arrested for punching a cop while dressed up as Spider Man - also stemming from an incident with a tourist who didn't want to pay for a photograph (you can read that blog post by clicking here).





In this case Minnie Mouse, Olaf from Frozen and the Cookie Monster had reportedly posed for a photo with a tourist.  As the tourist moved away the characters began to follow him, demanding that he hand over money for the photo.  It got to the point where the characters blocked the man’s path and insisted that he pay them $20.00, and, as a direct result of intimidation, the tourist eventually handed over $10.00.  





Unfortunately for the douche baggerous character actors a real life hero was watching...  a NYPD officer spotted the gang of characters and their civilian victim, he promptly diagnosed the situation, 
interrupted the shake down and arrested all three role-players on harassment charges.





Because of numerous complaints of tourists being hassled for money by character actors the NYPD now has a Times Square Task Force.  But, on occasion, even the cops get a little help... like this Mickey Mouse who teed off on another Cookie Monster, reportedly in defense of a civilian / tourist.




When it comes to the subject of "Cops, Courts and Constitutions" you should always have a skilled and experienced criminal defense attorney who is focused on serving your interests.  While we can't stop the cops from arresting you, as your legal counsel Michael A. Haber, PA will ensure that your rights are respected from the moment that representation begins and that any abuses which may have occurred beforehand are remedied.
