If you say so.. Based on what I've read here alone you have admitted to telling lies and being dishonest. Like I said, you should be arrested and charged and the city should tear up the agreement pending criminal trial outcome.
That is IF any of this is even real as I have my doubts..
I'll have to look into this tomorrow when I have time, I'm actually curious about all this law stuff and find it interesting. I have written reports of everything that was said at my hearings. I'll determine if what I said here actually constitutes fraud. I can't even tell you for sure if they asked me exactly why I left.
Remember, I was instructed carefully not to give any information that was not asked directly. For example, I asked my lawyer during the first hearing if they asked me about my bike should I tell them it was motorized. My lawyer said "nope" just say it was a bicycle, if they ask you if it was motorized then say "yes".
My first hearing I did not even mention it was motorized which I found odd. During my second more thorough hearing they asked me if it was motorized and I said "yes", and many more detailed questions.
Not even sure if they asked me why I left or if I left and I probably gave them a general answer. I believe I told them I left because I was scared and hurt and wanted to get away from this guy. I didn't have to say I wanted to get away from this guy because I was worried about getting in trouble and what I was doing was wrong. They didn't ask me this directly.
The other thing is you would have to prove I told a lie. I am not under oath here and I can write anything I want including complete lies. You would have to prove my actual reason for leaving at the time and I don't think an internet post where I specifically wrote it to make it seem like a crazy case that got settled proves anything I say here is the truth. I'm under no obligation to write the truth here. How could someone prove I committed fraud and perhaps just forgotten exactly what was on my mind at the time I left?
To prove I committed fraud you would have to prove that I knew at the time what I was doing was illegal. How the prosecutor would get what is in my mind is beyond me. I don't know if they could find any other facts. Could they use an internet post where I started this thread on complete lies as enough evidence to charge me with a felony?
The fact is I got on my bike and took off and I wanted to leave after I just broke my bone and had a guy cursing at me. This is not disputed and who knows what could have been going through my mind at the time.
Even if I told the defense I left because I didn't want to get in trouble or my bike taken, this would be immaterial to the case and a judge would never re-open it. There were actually many reasons I left at the time and I don't think I was under every obligation to remember all of them.
Lets think about this, I'm under no legal obligation to self incriminate myself also. I can't be held on felony charges for not self incriminating myself and telling them that I left because I was doing something illegal. SO I doubt they could even bring felony charges on me for not self incriminating myself.
