I was cuffed by cops because some females said I did something wrong (but I honestly did not, not even close.)

The only thing I did “wrong” was not tell the police exactly what happened. I told them I lived in the area and was just walking outside the supermarket.

They tried to get more information, but since I knew from experience....

So they continued to up the pressure, but I told them I had already given them all the info.

Then the bad-@$$ among them told me to put my hands behind my back. I was already seated. I wanted to get up to help them put the cuffs on. The bad-@$$ growled, “SIT DOWN.”

I did, but continued to refuse to offer more info. They eventually let me go, but not after humiliating me in front of my neighbors with the cuffing and all.

I lodged a complaint against the officers, but I got a letter from the department that said, “EXONERATED” in all caps like that! There’s a bunch more stuff they did, all intended to get me to react in a way that could give them an excuse to bring me to the police department.

Don’t believe a word they say. Don’t offer more than is absolutely necessary. Don’t assume they are on your side.
There are good guys among them, but assume they are going to use the info against you and twist what you say, and say and do many things to make you react, resist arrest, you name it.

I was better off getting cuffed than offering information!

When I was in college, I had been at the campus bar one evening for a while with a buddy. We went next door to get some burgers, and went back outside to eat them. Just then, the police decided to raid the bar for some reason. One cop approached my friend and asked him for his ID... he took the top bun off his burger and shoved the messy part into the cop's chest and said "sure, will you hold this for me while I get my wallet out".

I could hear him yelling "how fast does this thing go" as the paddy wagon drove off with him in it.

The next day he showed back up with 2 black eyes and a pretty messed up face.
