He said "I will arrest you for resisting arrest". But she wasn't being arrested?

That cop is a twat.

From what I heard this is doesn't sound right, but....

If her client was being arrested that is not the time to confer with that client. You can be arrested for resisting the arrest of yourself (from another charge) or by itself for resisting the arrest of another. That is how the statute reads here in AL:

Section 13A-10-41

Resisting arrest.

(a) A person commits the crime of resisting arrest if he intentionally prevents or attempts to prevent a peace officer from affecting a lawful arrest of himself or of another person.

(b) Resisting arrest is a Class B misdemeanor.
