Legal Questions Answered

Officers arrest the driver of the vehicle for driving suspended and the passenger for drug paraphernalia. Officers transport the subjects to jail. At the jail, officers asked the female subject where she is staying. The female subject tells us the Super 8. We ask her whose name the room is under. The female tells us her name.
