Lake Ozark Police Cursing and Provoking

christmas eve 2011 the guy goes outside and the police approach him to give a pbt. then the police start trouble with me for talking. i was arrested shortly after this for being intoxicated. in missouri it is illegal for the police to arrest someone for just being intoxicated and not committing another crime. i used my phone (evo) to record this, i had the phone held to my ear like i had a phone call.

the officers were not doing an investigation, as they say they were doing this guy a "favor".
