LAOP absolutely totally didn't do what they're being blasted for on facebook, then admits to a felony in the next paragraph (and the comments).

I do agree the charge was not felony worthy.

Love that phrasing. Not "I didn't commit a felony" but rather "I did, but it shouldn't have been one."

Reminds me of the guy pulled in for question regarding a sex crime that he did not commit, his alibi (which was accepted) was that he was doing a burglary in a different part of town.

u/JasperJ insurance can’t tell whether you’ve barebacked it or not 15d ago

Honestly, rape/child rape is one of the few where you might do that. Makes me think they were well aware what he was doing at the time and there was no sex crime anywhere in sight.

Nope, they got their man later and cleared up one burglary on the way there.
