What To Do If Your Friend Is Arrested
- Remember the officers' names, badge numbers, and car number. You have a right to ask their identity. Be polite and don't threaten to file a complaint; you don't want them to arrest you too out of spite.
- Remember the time, date, and place of the incident.
- Get the names and phone numbers of witnesses.
- If possible, photograph or videotape the incident.
- Get a name of a relative to contact if the person is arrested.
- Ask on what charge your friend was arrested and where (s)he is being taken.
