I got arrested (as a youth) for drinking in public. I wasn't drinking in public. I was with friends who were. In any case, the prosecuting attorney tried to get me to plea out to some very minor charge. I refused. the policeman testified that I WAS drinking in public. I called my friend to the stand who said I was not drinking in public. Not guilty, case closed.
In this case the police lied and the DA was a snake. It's something to be expected. Mind your manners and if you have have a case that proves you are innocent, justice should prevail.

Pardon me for saying, that is just moronic. It should not be "expected" that the police will lie under oath. You are extremely lucky that you had a witness, otherwise you could have been wrongly convicted.
