So...Who Here's Been In Jail?

A lot of us already know that MkSheppard's spent some time behind bars, and today we learned that Frank Hipper's also been in jail too. Just curious, anyone else here spend any time in the slammer? Is there anyone here who's posting from inside a jail (no, a shit job in a cubical doesn't count)?
I spent some time in jail myself waiting to get bailed out on assault charges, charges that were later thrown out in court.

What? One annoying costumer had a heated discussion with you about the super advantages of the newest XPTO computer assisted integral suspension tritinium alloy mountain bike?

Okay, I'll bite.
~30 hours in
Orleans Parish Prison (what a fucking hellhole, too!) for Criminal Vandalism (which by the time I was able to plead were reduced to Trespassing). I decided to plead guilty, because, well, I was in the building, and I was destroying things. No reason to try to lie to the Judge. I never wanna go back to OPP again...

Einhander, repeat after me:

LIFE IS NOT QUAKE 3 ARENA---QUAKE 3 ARENA IS NOT LIFE

Rinse and repeat until success.

I haven't, but my sister has. Her and my BF were arrested and jailed for assault and excessive force after 3 of her asshole classmates tried to beat them up while they were out for a walk in the woods. From what I heard 1 of those jerks showed up in court in a wheelchair and another was on crutches, serves them right for what they did. My sister & BF had the charges thrown out in court thanks to a judge who thankfully had common sense left in him, but yeah, it was pretty freaky getting a phone call from my parents informing me my sister and BF were behind bars.

Ive never been in jail, but Ive done a few things as a teenager/young adult that could have put me there.

All I know is that Dad, being a law enforcement officer, said that if he ever caught me doing something illegal, he would take me to the jail, throw me in, let me set there a couple days, THEN tell the judge to throw the book at me...
And he is quite sincere...

WTF?! LMAO what brought that on?
This all happened BEFORE I got into Quake 3. In fact, it all happened before I bought Quake
*2*! I got my Quake Addiction a few months after meeting Dave (my husband) two years ago. The jail time was BEFORE I met Dave. Yeesh! Get it now?

Customers do piss me off, but that's why our shop has this special tool.
Yes, our shop actually has one, but we haven't used it yet.

I was waiting at a bus stop after a visit to the dentist, because I knew the Novacain would fuck me up, too much to drive once, when the whole bus stop got sweeped by L.A. county's anti-drug task force. I got as far as the station, where I showed the booking Sargent my Doctor's orders & Perscription sheet. He made them drive me to the Pharmacy and back "Home".

Spent 2 nights in a county jail for drunk driving when I was 22.
That's it.

Clean as a whistle. The only time I've seen the inside of a police station was on an educational field trip.

When I was enlisted in the Coast Guard, I drove up to n. Alabama one winter to pick up a Karmann Ghia with my friend. On the way back down to Florida, it snowed around Birmingham, and my VW Bus spun off the road. A tow-truck pulled me out (for a not-so-nominal fee), and since I hadn't located my friend yet, I went to the local police station to get word on him. It was pretty late at night/early in the morning, so I was tired. The cops let me lie on one of the jail cell bunks, where I took a three-hour nap. That's as close as I've come to being in jail.

I've come close, but the local cops didn't feel like chasing us.

Same with me. The guide was a family friend, though, so he jokingly locked me in solitary when everyone else walked out, so I guess I've spent 5 minutes behind bars
. Most memorable thing was talking to a man who was pleading guilty to three counts of first-degree murder. He was actually a very reasonable-sounding man, told us to make sure not to screw up our lives like he had done with his.

Nothing.
I don't really do anything in general, let alone illegal.

Never here. I almost got taken to jail a few times with some friends of mine but they decided to go easy on us and let us off from it getting anymore serious. Quite stupidly, one of my friends started arguing with one of the officers though -_-

Most times I've outrun or out-talked the cops or other authorities.
Thank god.
If I go down for anything it won't be the kind of stupid shit it nearly was.

I spent a couple nights in prison for a knife fight in HS.
Nearly got arrested for tossing a Pepsi Grenade (don't ask) into the backyad of a kid I hated, but my buddies and I ran too fast and in multiple directions.

Me and my friends once spent a night in jail for illegal drugs possession. Only one night, though, because my uncle is a close friend of a high-ranked police officer.
Moreover, they didn't process the case any further. Yup, they didn't. We never went into courtroom. After all, I live in Indonesia.

I've been in jail many, many times. Probably more times than anyone else on this board in fact.
Of course, that's because I put other people there for a living, but you didn't specify how we get there.
