Locked up in Miami Dade County Jail
Miami FL = 0miles - 20hrs.
When I got to Miami, me and a few people from the hostel decided to go have a drink and walk around South Beach.
Everything was going well until one of the guys that we were with, decided to climb up the Versace House gate to show off. Fucking idiot!
It turned out that the cops were right behind the gate.
So I started to walk away, so that I wouldn’t get into trouble.
While we were leaving the scene, someone in the crowd started yelling some remarks like "pigs, toy cops, etc…"
The cops automatically assumed it was me.
And they walked up behind me and said "where the fuck you thinking you’re going CHINO?"
That shit pissed me off, so I turned around and said "What the fuck you did you say?"
Right when the word "What" came out of my mouth, 2 of them jumped on top of me and cuffed me up.
I got locked up for disorderly conduct.
At first I thought that I would be out in no time, but it turns out that in Miami, they’ll treat you the same no matter what the charge might be. Jaywalking, littering, loitering, robbery, larceny, rape, assault, and disorderly conduct.
I got booked and sent to Miami Dade County Jail.
Spent a 2 nights in population and got bailed out.
When I got arrested the arresting officer kept my money clip which had my license, credit card, debit card, and etc.. He conveniently forgot to process my property and kept it with him.
He also told the people that I was with, that I would be out in a few hours and that it wouldn’t be necessary to bail me out. What a fucking lie.
Luckily, Rob, the dude from Canada that’s doing the same thing as me, bailed me out, took care of my bike, my stuff in the room, and lent me money.
This whole shit has been fucked up.
I just wanna get the hell outta Miami.
But now I’m stuck here for at least a week or how ever long it takes for me to take care of everything.
Since the arresting officer works only on weekend nights, he’s off Mond-Wed.
So I have to wait until Thur. 11pm when his shift starts, to go talk to him and get my stuff back.
Plus, to make matters worse, I have to figure out a way to go to court while I’m still here, so that I don’t have to come back in a month.
I thought I had been through it all in this trip, but this is definitely is the worse experience so far.
I don’t think I’ll ever come back to Miami.
