On a summer night, a police officer arrests a woman for drunken driving. After starting a physical altercation with the officer, she changes personalities and tries to make a deal involving sexual favors with the officer.
While on routine patrol one night (early morning), somewhere between the hours of 1:00 & 3:00am, I came across a car driving erratically down the road. I followed the vehicle for a short distance to see if the operator was impaired, or what I had witnessed was just a mistake caused by adjusting the radio, lighting a cigarette, etc.
The erratic driving continued and I stopped the vehicle. When I asked the female driver for her license and registration, I could tell she was impaired. Her speech was slurred, eyes glassy and bloodshot, and a strong odor of alcoholic beverages was coming from the vehicle as she spoke.
She asked, “WHY?” I explained what I had seen to her, and she began to protest. I repeated my request for her license and registration. After she handed the documents to me, I asked her to step out of and to the rear of her car. She complied, but not without protesting this also.
When we were behind her car she was still protesting and demanded to know why she had to get out of the car. I explained to her that I needed to give her some field sobriety tests because I believed that she was impaired by alcohol.
I gave her the first test, a verbal divided attention test, which she failed. When I explained the next test, to test her balance, coordination, and ability to understand and follow directions, she flipped into a crazy woman. She yelled something like, “That’s it! This is ridiculous! I’m not doing anymore of your fucking tests!” As she spoke, she started heading back to the driver’s side of her car, as though she thought she was just going to drive away or something.
As I walked toward her, I told her to get back to the rear of her car, and I believe she said, “Fuck you!” I took a hold of her arm to escort her back to the rear of the car. As she tried to pull away, she was screaming obscenities at me, and attempted to kick me. I advised her that she was under arrest and attempted to restrain her in order to put the silver bracelets on her.
She went wild; swinging and kicking at me while screaming like a mad woman. Within seconds we were wrestling in the middle of the roadway.
Once she was in custody, I placed her in the cruiser, and called for another officer to stay with her vehicle, which was going to be towed from the scene. While en route to the police station, she informed me that she was the wife of a police officer from a neighboring city. She yelled, “You cops are all alike! You are fucking assholes!” I promptly thanked her for informing me that I was doing a good job! As we continued the drive she called me such things as, “pig, asshole, cocksucker, no good fucking cop,” etc. I was quite fed up with her by this time, but continued to smile as we drove along. This only infuriated her more.
When we arrived at the station, I placed a phone call to her husband’s police department, identified myself, and asked, “Is _______ _____ working tonight?” The dispatcher responded, “No, he is not on duty tonight. Is there anyone else that could help you?” I asked to speak to the officer in charge.
When the officer in charge got on the phone, I said, “Guess who I have here?” As he laughed he said, “Who?” I told him, “ ______ ______’s wife!” “You mean ex-wife!” he said. “Well, that’s not what she tells me,” I explained. “What did she do now?” he asked.
I told him the story and asked, what would you like me to do with her? “You know what to do!” he said. What I knew was the police code (the phone line was recorded at the other department) telling me that I should give no breaks to this woman, which I had no intentions of doing anyway. A few minutes after I got off the phone, I went into the booking room and found that while I had been away, she must have come to the realization that she was under arrest and was going nowhere.
She started to approach me as I was filling out paperwork, and said, “Isn’t there some way we can work this out?” I asked her, “Work what out?” She responded, “You know, we can reach an agreement or something like that, so I can go home.” I sarcastically said, “I don’t think so!” As she spoke, she continued to approach me. She leaned up against me, grabbed my arm, smiled, and asked, “Can we take it out in trade?” “Nope, we can’t! Are you out of your mind, or what?” I asked.
She flipped back into the crazy woman personality, and started screaming obscenities at me again. I responded by promptly placing her in a holding cell. I told her that when she decided to behave, and act like an adult, she could come back to complete the booking process.
I was inspired to write this after reading the post, “Much Ado About a Chic in Pink Capris”, by JadeLondon.

Of course I wanted something sexier-
I wanted the cop to have some non-super hero moments....
I wanted the woman to be just a little bit more sympathic a character...why was she out driving while intoxicated?
I think you have alot of experiences that could lend themselves to good fiction; I enjoy reading you.

Thank you for the honorable mention!
I would have written sooner, but I just came in from work. I read you on my smoke break, but didn't have time to respond. Anyway, I like your telling of the story. It was well-written AND interesting.
I find it amusing how certain folks connected with the police department (no matter how indirectly) feel they are above the law.
Rather than trying to lead a circumspect, respectful life, they use it as leverage to commit atrocities.
Well, I appreciate the thought--and your tale even more. Dig deeper. I cannot be the only reader at SoulCast that would be intrigued by your experiences. Just a thought.

You did a good job in writing all that. You had me glued on every word.
I noticed that in the introduction that the policeman was introduced in the third person and after the next paragraph you switched it to the first person.
So, was that your experience or a work of fiction?
Anyway, I like the way you put your story, it's all nice and neat. :D

I am soooo sorry that I didn’t reach your expected level of sexiness! haha. Give me a little time, I do have some of my own tales of erotica you know.
I’ll see what I can do with the non-hero moments, and this woman just was just not the sympathetic character you are thinking of. I’ll have to give a little thought to it, as you said, I do have a lot of experiences that I can write about.
Why she was out driving while intoxicated, is beyond me. Probably just not smart enough not to do so.
Thanks for the compliment! I enjoy your posts also. You are a very talented writer of erotica.

JadeLondon:
You are welcome! Thanks for reading.
There’s no problem about when you wrote. I had a busy day myself, and then had computer problems. I didn’t get on here until a few minutes ago and didn’t have time to read yours, or anyone else’s posts today, nor the time to reply to comments.
I’m glad you liked my story telling, and thanks for the compliments!
I not only find those people who feel that they are above the law amusing, but also the self-proclaimed lawyers. If I had a nickel for every one of them that threatened to sue me, I’d be a millionaire. I have learned over time that there are lots of people out there looking to use anything they can as leverage.
Thanks for your thought and encouragement! I will dig deeper; my fiancée has been encouraging me to write my tales for quite some time now. You aren’t the first at SoulCast that has advised me to…write on!

Thank you very much!
Yes the third-person beginning was because that part was intended to go in the “description” section of the post, but then I found it made for a good beginning.
That was one of my real experiences. I’ll note, when and if they become fiction.
Thanks for reading and the compliments! I’ll check some of your posts out tomorrow. I got off to a bad start today, no progress.

FRLNCWTR: Well another good story, if you hadn't cut it to the end and had accepted her trade offer, your story could have set off as an erotic suspense thriller with a little shocking murder angle towards the end part.
Paidinblood and Secretlife tends to think that you're good at fiction stories. Didn't I tell you so? Way to go, you had better start working on your fiction masterpieces.

FaithfulDisciple:
Thank you! Maybe that’s a fiction story for the future!
Yes, you did tell me so, and I am giving it considerable thought! It’s starting to sound like you are right; I had better start working on my fiction masterpieces. Also, see my reply to you in ‘Recurring Dreams,’ as well as the latest reply to secretlife.

sigroid75 said on Aug 25, 2006....
you write well, FR. :-)
geez...what a woman...i know there are quite
lots of them...sometimes i feel sorry for them,
why they're behaving that way...i wonder then,
what they're problems are... sigh...
-
Frlncwrtr said on Aug 25, 2006....
Thank you very much sigroid!
Yes, what a woman, however I have seen many more who make this one look like a princess.
Yes, I agree, sometimes it was tough for me to do my job and to do the right thing because I would feel sorry for them. But, then again, removing drunks from the roads saves lives, so I had to really weigh the situations out.
Why they behave that way, may in many ways be because they are alcoholics. Other than that I do not know what their problems are either.

That was wild! I guess the woman's husband was glad to get rid of her, huh?
so I'm assuming you're new to writing? If you do manage to get your stories down, Thuglit is a good onling mag that is crying for crime stories right now. I sent them one, sigh, but I doubt it'll make the cut. I love to write crime fiction but lol, I don't have the background (I work for real estate attorneys... on the nondramatic side of the law) so I just dabble.
Shred Of Evidence used to be a good site too, but I'm wondering if they're defunct. At any rate, I'm enjoying your blog!

Hey, I am really glad you are here. This is only the second post of yours I have read and I am really enjoying them.
It really bothers me when people say they hate the police, especially people who have no real good reason to say so. Your blog should be a good message to anyone that doesn't realize a police officer's job is one of the most difficult and thankless. And sadly, the people you guys get to know in the community are usually the bad guys. I respect you men and women who continue to do your jobs despite the crap you have to put up with. I'll be reading more of your stuff. Keep it up!

Nice! I like the story. What a great forum for this sort of thing. i do a bit of creative writing in my freetime as well. I hadn't thought about tossing some of my stuff up here, but maybe I'll give it a go. Keep up the writing!

Cabernet:
You have a cool profile!
Yes, apparently he was glad to get rid of her. I don’t blame him!
I’m not so new to writing, just new to this Soulcast. I’ve written crime stories for nearly 20 years, only they were in the form of police reports. I’ve done some newspaper work, and have written a little for online companies.
Thanks for the Websites; I’ll check them out.
Let me know how things turn out with Thuglit! Since you love crime fiction, keep plugging away at it. If you have any questions that I may be able to answer as far as laws or police procedure etc, let me know. I’ll be glad to help! You might as well do your dabbling in something you love.
What makes you think Shred of Evidence may be defunct?
I’ve been having computer problems for several days now. As soon as I get that straightened out I’ll be able to spend more time on Soulcast, and I’ll check your blog out.
Thanks for writing! I'm glad that you are enjoying my blog. I’ll try to get a few more posts out soon!

Thanks for the compliments!
I’m glad that I’m here too, thanks! I am glad to be able to get to know people like you!
I’m also glad that you think my blog should be a good message to anyone that doesn't realize a police officer's job is one of the most difficult and thankless. To get through to even one person makes writing it all worth it. There are not many people who have your understanding of what a police officer’s job is really like.
As far as people saying that they hate the police, I cannot, let that get to me. As you said, it is a thankless job. A person has to go into it knowing that it’s thankless because if they are expecting the opposite, they are in for a really big let down.
It seems that everyone loves firemen, but that is because they primarily save peoples' homes and lives by putting out fires and rescuing people.
Although police officers save lives (in many ways) and rescue people, those are not the officers’ only duties. Police officers, as the nature of their job goes, primarily must do things to people that they do not like. So, it stands to reason that people hate the police (until they need them).
You are right that it is a sad situation when the people police officers get to know in the community are usually the bad guys…especially when working the midnight shift.
I appreciate that some people respect the police regardless of how small the number of people may be.
It’s great to know that you are enjoying my posts! I will keep up the writing, and try to keep you entertained. I am having some computer problems right now and it’s kind of putting a damper on my time at Soulcast. I hope to have the problems cleared up in the next few days.
Thanks for reading and raking the time to write!
BTW, that was a very interesting comment that you posted about your vacation. I’ll respond to that after this.

Please do toss some of your stuff up here! I’ll be sure to read it.
I do plan to keep up the writing! As you’ve probably seen from the comments before you, I am having some technical difficulties right now. But, I’ll be sure to give you a read as soon as I straighten them out.
Thanks for stopping by!

Right now I am very grateful for the police officers who are looking out for me and mine. Their efforts are not unappreciated.
Glad you decided to jump in and join us.

Dear Frlncwrtr,
It's awesome you take the time to really comment on what people have to say to you. I feel we're having a dialog. I missed that with a lot of posts. I have mentioned your blog in my most recent post and put a link to it. I doubt it will help you get new readers much but I wanted to show my appreciation for you.
Thanks for the comments on my older blogs. You and a couple of other people have made me feel it is worth it to keep posting.
Cheers!
