re: "Innocent people do not run from the police."

I have done a lot of stupid shite as a youngster and interfaced with cops more than a handful of times. I have never been arrested and used any discussions to my advantage. I never ran from nor aggravated a cop, even a smart arse one, and this is during the years when they could and would just beat your arse if they felt like it. Worked for me.

Lucky you

Meant in jest, but that is exactly what you do when you run.

isn't running from the cops illegal?

Innocent or not, what's the point of adding additional felonies by running?

Check your state code, but simply running, generally no. However it does give them cause to detain you.

"Am I under arrest or being detained?"
"No"
Runs away
"No"
Runs away

Well, maybe you should tell us why you ended up in cuffs?
Typically, you only get fricked up if you have it coming. Even that is rare though.

quote:Yeah that is odd, but it also seems counterproductive to designate a person "not innocent" without any due process, while defending a person in court under the presumption of innocent until proven guilty.
It is interesting to see this quote coming from a criminal defense attorney. I don't think that I've ever heard one say that before.
Furthermore, while interesting in a philosophical sense (should running make one guilty if no other crime is committed), it also seems counterproductive (and irrelevant) because the officer is not the "judge, jury, and executioner."
It seems like a risky strategy.

run from police = guilty Innocent = not run Guilty = may or may not run
id say true 99% of the time. But we ran from the cops a couple times when we were young just for the fun and rush off it.
