I agree that it was just an oversight and shouldn't be punished. My problem is that if one of us serfs made an oversight like this, there would probably be hell to pay.

No kidding, look at what happened to that Brian Atkins fellow in NJ for far less. He is still has a felony if the Governor doesn't pardon him.
At one time long ago the police were your friend, at least where I live, and in Plant City still are.But they will tell you that they cannot protect you all the time, then you got to protect yourself.
