Bechard said State Police told him Thursday they have no record of him calling about the registrations.

Step 1: subpoena the phone records to establish that he called that number. Throw enough doubt on the state's case and it might be enough to keep the prosecutor from pressing charges.

"I didn't think I was doing anything illegal," said Bechard, who has not decided yet whether he will hire a lawyer for his court appearance.

When facing a felony charge and 10 years in prison, only an idiot wouldn't employ counsel.

Step 1 would be to take your toothbrush to a felony trial if you haven't hired a lawyer.

it was probably his call to the DPS that triggered the visit and arrest.

Caller ID and follow up got him...big brother at work.

Well if the state police didn't have a record of his call how did they know to stop by and arrest him...who "turned him in"?
