Need legal advice. Huge problem. Worst of my life.

What business does an officer have telling you the terms of any deal? Shouldn't that be the role of the county prosecture? Cops don't do that stuff.

Quite true!

Tell them that you want the county prosecutor to proffer the deal and for the animal officers to cease all communications with you.

Don't do anything except go see a lawyer. Go see one of those $50 ones or some starving lawyer.

Don't make a deal unless advised by an attorney that represents you to do so.

The cop, prosecutor, dogcatcher, nor the mayor has your interest at heart. They are out to do what they have to do.

If you sign something you may be signing something that may bring pain years down the road. There are nuances in the law that can come back to bite your hiney.

When you are dealing with t people who have arrested you they are the enemy. Our court system is adversarial. You don't talk to them have someone talk to them for you.

I took care of a pointer (stray) for a couple weeks. It was as skinny as a rail, ate more than my 80 pound shepherd mix (and would have eaten more if I'd let it) and constantly casted the pasture around my house, wouldn't sit still for a minute.

I thought he was starved when he first showed up, but he never put on a pound.

Also clean the dog run with bleach, get a heated dog dish,

Bleach a dog run? What balderdash!! For cryin' in the bucket! Sometimes dogs eat their own poop! They drink out of toilets! They roll around in rotted, maggot infested animal carcasses! They consider garbage cans a doggy buffet! They lick their own.....you know.
And they want you to bleach the dog run?
Idiots!!!

IF you don't have to admit guilt, take the deal. Just like I said the prosecutor is not going to waste tax-payer money (his budget) on this matter. I would still talk to an attorney, the first visit is free. You have nothing to lose by at least seeing him once, don't guess how much it will cost ASK HIM! Good Luck

I'd get a lawyer and a lock for the dog run. They have nothing, they know it.

The thing that disgusts me more than anything else about this is that the vet the county took the dog to charged $180 to basically glance at the dog and make up some BS about its condition. Can you find out anything more about this quack they took your dog to? I have my doubts they actually had a vet inspect the dog at all, but if they did I would seriously consider a campaign against his/her business if I were in your place.

The first few responses to get a lawyer should have been sufficient advice. Sure, we're all in accord that it's a phoney deal, but it shouldn't take five pages to deal with a fairly simple problem.

Enuf.
