Arrested for swearing at officers on his own property?
I didn’t see where his wife claimed abuse or anything. What were the cops supposed to do to him?
As crazy as it may be, is there some law against getting drunk on your own property and pulling your own tooth?
I have mixed feelings on this one.
It is his house, and he has the right to get drunk and extract his own teeth if he wants to.
It’s also his wife’s house and she shouldn’t have to put up with the smell of barf in the basement. And she apparently called the police in.
Gotta admit, I’ve had toothaches that were so bad I considered doing the exact same thing. Lack of dental insurance is tough.
The Police officers changed the situation from stupid to “disturbing the peace” (the BS arrest anyone excuse when the LEO has no other charge, they dump this on them).
Stupid guy yes, criminal? NO!

I’ve lived a sheltered life. I have. But one of these days - I’m gonna take a trip to Port St. Loonie and just stare in awe and wonderment at the things that live there.
I mean Really. Not a week goes by that we don’t read of these types (and even weirder!) of stories.
The affidavit did not state whether the tooth was a central or lateral incisor, canine, first premolar, second premolar, first molar, second molar or third molar (wisdom tooth) or whether the tooth was in the upper or lower jaw.

Well, that just about covers every possible aspect, doesn’t it? Pinging the expert to add any input, if desired.
Why do women call police for social services or marriage counseling? My wife would have baited me into the car with the promise of a six pack of beer, and then driven me to an emergency dental clinic. She would have still picked up the beer though.
I always wondered what happened to Cousin Francisco. Nobody could puke like Cousin Francisco. You’d just say “creamed corn”, and he’d start to ralph. We always knew he’d be famous.
I thought this was going to be a story about Eddie Van Halen.
