Things Not To Say (Or Admit) To A Law Enforcement Agent (#11)

No, not Florida. Iowa, for once.

Like most fellow Iowans, Crystal Knight was intoxicated at 2:45 AM Saturday.

However, Knight, 26, made the mistake of haranguing cops who arrived to break up a physical altercation on a downtown Iowa City street. Knight, cops reported, “immediately began screaming at the top of her lungs and continued with abusive rhetoric. She showed signs of intoxication.”

Still, police allowed Knight (seen above) to leave the scene.

But Knight continued to scream obscenities as she walked away. As a result, she was subsequently arrested, prompting a new high-decibel attack.

And being from Iowa myself I resemble the remark.

Screaming at police - NO!

I grew up in Iowa as well and yes, if you were awake at 2:45 AM, there is a high probability that you were intoxicated and either looking for food or more beer. Both difficult to find at that hour in Iowa.

...there are a few food places open. You're right though about the beer, at 2:45am the stores can't sell the booze then. Up in Dubuque last call was at 2:00am. People used to head over to East Dubuque because the bars there closed an hour later at 3:00am. Not so much the case anymore since there aren't the number of bars there used to be downtown.
