PIEDMONT, Oklahoma - A three year old gets his mom in trouble with the law when he gets a ticket from police. Now the little boy's mother will have to pay thousands of dollars for what the toddler did in their own front yard.

The toddler is being potty trained, and he wasn't near the facilities, so he unzipped.

We are told before he could pee, a Piedmont police officer stopped him. It's a bathroom break that cost mom $2,500.

We all know the saying, boys will be boys. Dillan decided to be a big boy, stop what he was doing, so he wouldn't wet his pull-up.

"Dillan pulled down his pants to pee outside, I guess and the cop pulled up and asked for my license and told me he was going to give me a ticket for public urination," said the boy's mother, Ashley Warden.

Any judge who doesn't throw this out and reprimand the cop needs to be impeached.

The Peed-mont poleece mightn't want to keep an eye on my place too close. Little Dillan would be the least of their worries.

[Vasilli22]

The police acted stupidly.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

He should demand a jury of his peers.

OK was also where they made a woman get rid of her medicinal plant garden on her property.

The Paul Harvey presumption virtually always applies in this kind of situation.

It's what 'we' don't know that makes all the difference. The 'game' of MEDIA.

even if it is dismissed there are court fees that the mom will have to pay.

If I was the parent, I wouldn’t just pay it. I’d demand a court date and force a judge to issue a ruling saying I had to pay it. And, I’d make sure the local press was in the court room covering it.

I don’t know if judges are elected in OK, but they are where I come from. Believe me, no judge wants to go into his next election being known as the judge that fined a family for a child peeing in their own yard.

Imagine the judge in “Miracle on 34th Street” who didn’t want to declare Santa insane.

“”Dillan pulled down his pants to pee outside, (for like...the hundredth time) I guess and the cop pulled up...”

[stormer]

"You've got to nip it in the bud!"

[Logical me]

Only in communists run ass hats could this happen. Cops are looking more like the Gestapo every day.

In Texas, if it’s dismissed flat-out (no deferred), the defendant pays nothing. No court costs, nothing.

[HangnJudge]

They need to change the name from Piedmont to Pee Not...

or PeedMoleHill

“The toddler is being potty trained”

Apparently, just like one does with a dog. Open the door and let them outside.

[George from New England]

I cannot find a cop’s name...

Could it be a female officer with a big grudge against males and male body parts ?!

[UCANSEE2]

My son does this constantly.

Have you told him you have an inside toilet ?

[spodefly]

Where are we finding the people we are hiring as cops these days?

“Wait’ll you tell him how much he owes to the National Debt.”

Inclusive of all federal, state, and local debts and unfunded entitlements over the next 75 years, this kid owes $886,000. Good luck on ever collecting it from him....

[Yashcheritsiy]

He’s 3....The cop should be watching that some faggot isn’t around the corner.

Maybe this is the reason the cop was there "observing" the kid in the first place...?
