DH>> Marty,
DH>>> this guy poses some good questions...
DH>>>
DH>>> A couple of thoughts and a question:
DH>>>
DH>>> According to Mas Ayoob, you will be given **ONE** phone call that
DH>>> connects.  If you try to call a lawyer, and you get his service, you 
re
DH>>> all done.  Therefor, you should probably call your spouse or a family
DH>>> member instead, and THEY should know how to get a hold of a good lawyer
DH>>> for you.
DH>>>
DH>>> If you want the BEST lawyer to handle a shooting, find out who the
DH>>> police union retains to defend cops accused of a bad shoot.
DH>>>
DH>>> Is this a good idea?
DH>>I wouldn't necessarily expect to get the best attorney just because he
DH>>defends cops via the police union.  maybe the union is broke, and they
DH>>got the cheapest lawyer, or maybe the layer is the brother of the ehad of
DH>>the union.  But, it probably isn't a bad place to start.
DH>>>
DH>>> I recently had the interesting experience of posting bail for a friend
DH>>> of mine.  (He has a drinking problem).
DH>>>
DH>>> I wonder if Cloyce or somebody else who knows about this stuff could
DH>>> give us a few tips on what to expect if we have to arrange bail after a
DH>>> shooting.
DH>>> Who is Clyoce?
DH>>> Will the bail bondsman demand collateral?  I presume ones spouse could
DH>>> sign any necessary papers, but what if you aren't married?  Might a
DH>>> pre-signed power-of-attorney left with the appropriate person be a good
DH>>> idea?
DH>>>
DH>>> Would this work?
DH>>I don't know.  Maybe a phone call to your local bail bondsman might find
DH>>out the answers for you.
DH>>Lastly, the one phone call thing might be in effect in some
DH>>jurisdicitons, but when read your miranda rights, and you say you will be
DH>>glad to talk with them as long as your attorney is present, you will
DH>>probably get the opportunity to make more than one phone call.
DH>>Another good reason to know a little hand-to-hand self-defense, in the
DH>>event you ever do spend a night in jail.  (One of the reasons I carry a
DH>>badge).  The sacrifice of time, energy and money to stay a current law
DH>>enforcement officer is worth it when you look at some of the intangible
DH>>benifits).
