What references do you have on either city and their intake and processing for DUI? Do you know someone who has been through this? Someone known around both cities? What are you basing these statements upon?
Where are they taken? What happens there? Where are they held after processing? Are both in the same complexes? Are they housed with others awaiting more serious arraignments?
Can you answer any of these with any authority?

Lol....no....dont even care...was a statement...not a testimonial ..What references do you have on either city and their intake and processing for DUI? Do you know someone who has been through this? Someone known around both cities? What are you basing these statements upon?

But....human nature and being in the area....and just knowing cops as people...and fans......
If you were the cop....?
But..if you really believe it doesn’t happen...ok
This thread is under suspicion of DUI because it has veered off into the weeds...
You'd be surprised, but pretty decent odds that the officer had no idea who he was (until later or unless Golding mentioned it). Regardless, letting him go free on that is the type of thing that could/would cost an officer in either city their job if caught. As for his brief stay in jail, there is the option to house him in a separate area until release but more than likely he was in with everyone else in what they call the pink room.

I dont know... "lots of maybe this..maybe that..what if this...plenty of ways to work things...etc"..... quote from mySIL cop
Officers job is public safety...not jailing people...
and really...if he didnt live under a rock in Tuscaloosa County... the last name Golding should/would have sent off fireworks...
But...who knows....that we can agree on...

Think he was drawing up blitz schemes for Dallas and William in the dirt while he got his yard time?

On Suscisous of DUI Law:
Probable cause differs from reasonable suspicion in that, in order to meet the probable cause standard, an officer must have enough evidence to suggest that the motorist has most likely committed a crime. Reasonable suspicion, on the other hand, only necessitates that the officer have some indication that the motorist might have committed a crime. It is a fine distinction, but an important one.
On Suscisous of DUI Law:
Reasonable Suspicion vs. Probable Cause
While reasonable suspicion allows an officer to temporarily stop and detain a motorist in order to investigate further if the officer thinks the motorist may have committed a crime, an officer must meet the higher standard of probable cause before making an arrest. Probable cause simply means that an officer has enough evidence to believe a motorist has probably committed a crime, thus justifying his or her arrest. In the context of a DUI stop, an officer could have probable cause for an arrest after administering a field sobriety test and/or a breath test if the results point to probable intoxication.Probable cause differs from reasonable suspicion in that, in order to meet the probable cause standard, an officer must have enough evidence to suggest that the motorist has most likely committed a crime. Reasonable suspicion, on the other hand, only necessitates that the officer have some indication that the motorist might have committed a crime. It is a fine distinction, but an important one.
Examples of Reasonable Suspicion for a DUI Stop
Reasonable suspicion that a motorist is impaired may by established by any of the following observations:- Straddling the center line
- Illegal turn
- Drifting from one lane to another
- Nearly hitting other cars or objects on the roadside
- Extremely slow or erratic driving
- Frequent braking
- Stopping in the middle of the road for no apparent reason

Golding lawyer would have to prove that officer didn't have enough evidence to believe a motorist has probably committed a crime. It is probably a weak case and could get dimissed. Who knows.
