What could my son's sentence be for 6 robbery charges?

Criminal Law lawyer at Francis John Cowhig
This is a question that you should be asking his attorney since his attorney knows more about your son's case than you state in your question.

The police can be sued. Be ready to see your parents hold on to the money in settlement, until after you get out of prison on the criminal charges, you don't refer to at all in this question.

Is it legal for a police officer to search my car and put me in handcuffs without doing sobriety tests first?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Robert Conover English (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The English Law Firm
Yes and no. The law provides that an officer can detain you if there is sufficient evidence to demonstrate that a crime has been committed. He can detain you on a reasonable suspicion. Theoretically, when he cuffed you, you were under arrest and he can then proceed to conduct a search incident to that arrest. However, he determined that since no more serious crime had been committed, he reversed his position and released you. It is a dicey legal question as to whether his observations were actually sufficient, but since there will be no case filed because of it, we will never know. There is no requirement that he give you a field sobriety test or motor skills test. He can make his case fully on his observations of you pupils, actions, speech etc. I am not saying that he would have had a strong case, but probably enough for a reasonable suspicion if he enunciated it well enough.
