Cops park by my house, then follow me when i leave. WTF
    #9932111 - 03/08/09 01:51 AM (14 years, 10 months ago)

Ok, the title says it all. I'm not a idiot, and I'm not just paranoid. At random hours of the day and late at night there are cops parked near my house. Almost every time i pull out of my driveway, i notice a unmarked cop car pulls out of the lot across from me and follows me. Most of the time i am going to work, stopping at my house while I'm at work, or leaving at all hours of the night to go to the gym and sometimes my friends house. I am not a regular 9-5 guy by far. I leave my house sometimes at 5 in the morning when i can't sleep to go to the gas station to get gummy worms or something just as stupid.

I look out my windows alot and notice city cops just parked a ways down from my house just sitting there. During the day i caught some lady in a government plated car writing on a clipboard when i left, then when i came home. I waved to her and she drove away. I looked out the window of my kitchen 20 minutes later and she was parked out there again. I'm seriously like wtf is going on here. I feel like I'm being watched all the time. I really am not stupid, and i am really not seeing things here. My wife called me today and asked me if i saw the cop follow me when i left for work. I did see the cop, and he followed me all the way to work, then looked dead at me when i parked and he drove past. I even recognized him. He comes in all the time and orders food to go in his uniform.

I am not a drug dealer. I do not grow drugs. I do not manufacture drugs of any kind. I may or may not have a little herb sitting around now and then, but never more than like 20 bucks worth. The only reason i can think of that they are watching me, is because of my constant coming and going at all hours. I work late at night, so i am a night person. I live in a small ass hick town, and i guess you can say i dress way different than the normal hick that i live around. I have sent letters from norml.com asking for my state to look over the medical marijuana laws many times. Would that be enough to watch me? Even my dad had came over and noticed cops following him from my house. This is tripping me out.

If you were me would you get rid of any smoke that may or may not be sitting around? Or would you just laugh at these pigs that are wasting their time following me? I did notice someone went though my garage a month ago. My old mushroom growing supplies were pulled out, and it looked like someone had looked though the bin i keep it in. I live in a small town that is safe as hell, so i never bothered to lock my garage. I never thought someone might break in and have a look around. I have a old print in there with a few syringes.

What would you do in my case? The most i have is a few nugs, my bowl, and my old mushroom supplies. This town is a bit fucked up. At least once a year here cops walk through backyards and look around. I asked them what the fuck they were doing once, and they told me they were looking for illegal fires that were reported in the area. the next year they said they were looking for a trespasser. I told them that they were trespassing on my property, and they told me to shut up and go back in my house. I called the police station and they told me they were looking for someone lighting off fireworks. It was 1 am, but there was no one lighting fireworks. They were doing random searches for weed growing i think. It is always in September, which is harvest time.

I frequent the shroomery as you may notice, but i highly doubt that that is the reason they would be doing what they are doing. I do go to a buddies house a block away and smoke every now and then. He does have alot of people coming and going, and I'm wondering if they might actually be watching his house to. They park almost in between our 2 houses. I think the next time i see them out there, i might walk over the their cars and start a conversation. Just ask them if i have a psycho neighbor or something. I should ask them if they are watching someone who is on house arrest, and if i should worry about my kids.

I really am not seeing things, or freaking out for any reason. My wife even is freaked out, because she see's them following me. I really have done nothing wrong that would warrant them to pay any attention to me at all. Unless someone i know got busted and started talking about shit i use to do for some reason. I do know one guy who left town awful fast a few months ago when it started. I dunno, I'm picking my brain here trying to figure this out. I may stop smoking for awhile just to be safe, but then really what can they do? Raid my house on suspicion? This IS a small town that would bother someone like me if they had reason, and they would take it quit serious even tho i am harmless. The cops have nothing to do around here but pull people over and bother skateboarders, so i guess if they got the wrong idea about me they might look into it.

This is so stupid i have to worry like this. I thought for the first month they were around that i was just trippin out, but people that come over are telling me that i am not just seeing shit. What would you do in this situation? I commend you if you have read all of this.

Well if they really are watching you that much I'd make sure to never have anything in your car, or visible in your house that suggests illegal activities. So keep everything clean.. make sure your car doesn't smell like MJ, etc.

I bet a neighbor noticed your suspicious times and told someone about it.
neighbors are pretty damn pesky either trying to get you in trouble, or always trying to be your friend.

rig a camera up on ur front porch so you can watch them

you can get cheap setups with a monitor for 100 bucks these days

a couple of bright movement sensor spot lights set up too fucks all off your property if they arent legitmately visiting

cops hate cameras,as do most people when they see one

they duck and try to weave out of its way when people knock on my door but mines camoflauged with flowers and you dont notice it till your face is in it for me to look at:lol:

i had three cops all standing in a bunch to the left on my porch once:lol:

Okay,I stopped reading half way through.

As a precaution,clear your house of incriminating stuff.

Then,when you see them outside your house clearly watching you,go up to the window and politely ask what they are doing as you've seen them outside regularly.

Also mention that you noticed they were following you and you want to know what's up.

Don't play the smart cunt who laughs at them. That will never pay off.

I wouldn't let that go on at all. Police parked outside my house,I'd be straight up asking questions and inquiring. Sort that out.

Good advice. It's a legal loophole, but the "smell" of smoke can give an officer probably cause to check any automobile without consent. However, some crooked cops can claim they smell marijuana anyways and just barge in without a warrant.

I don't know how the American system works now that it's post 9/11 with the Patriot Act and all. Maybe just being on the shroomery and driving around late at night is enough.

They can't follow you forever. Lay low for a while and don't do anything shady.

Sucks to see a waste of resources. If there are always cops tailing you, then that means they have too many cops for your town. Maybe if Ted Bundy were still around cops would have something better to do than follow people who drive around at night.

Agreed.  Ask what's going on, maybe clear things up for their imaginative minds.

also, recent supreme court decisions show a trend toward including evidence even if it was obtained through lack of a proper warrant.

I'd be cautious if you choose to ask them what they're doing. Remember: almost anything you say can be taken as suspicious given the wrong interpretation.

I like the camera idea. Cops hate that shit because they can't just lie and deny what they did. Judges tend to believe video more than greasy cops. The camera doesn't have to be working to do it's job. Buy a non working one for a couple bucks and set it up. They even sell fake cameras complete with the red light on in front for about $15 or so. It makes the piggy wiggies be on their best behavior.

It was probably a neighbor who smelled pot and called the law.

Thanks for easing my minds guys. I know they can't just come busting in or they would have. I am very safe with everything i do, so there is no way they are going to catch me doing anything at all. This is such a joke that they even care to follow me around. I am in no way a bad guy at all.

I am on the other hand going to find out if someone threw my name out there. Someone i know must have gotten in trouble, and they had to have givin my name. Cops wouldn't just follow me around just because i come and go alot. There must have been a catalist to this all.

This is just one giant waist of taxpayer money. I really wish they had better things to do.

I do not know if I would stroll up to their window and ask what's up because you know they are going to lie, thus end up confusing you more on their intentions. They are looking for any kind of evidence to get a warrant to bust you for something. The mushroom grow thing is spooky, but remember all those edibles you grew and enjoyed?

I would actually go outside with a camera and take pictures of them. Nothing illegal or suspicious about that and obviously they don't like to be known. If they find out your onto them, maybe they will quit. I say things like this so others will read it and respond because I am only curious, not saying I have the set solution.

Remember, if they come up to your door to question you, feel free to have a tape recorder playing at all times and/or have a video camera you can start rolling outside when you hear the door.

Since i wrote this post i havn't sen one cop near my house until today. My neighboor called me from the bar and told me there was a unmarked white car driving by my house really slow. I looked out the window and it was in my driveway. I thought, "oh fuck here comes the pigs." But i looked out and they saw me, so they backed out of the driveway and drove off. I went to work a hour later and didn't see them the rest of the night.

I bet they will have someone sitting outside tonight. I always go out on teusday nights, so if they are out there im going to go say hi. I'll let you all know. Could be fun. And yes im bringing a video camera.

Usually they dont waste that kind of money.. doing that.. on a daily basis. They're using a deterance method.. n trying to scare you. They may have found old things.. and someone could have reported smells.. or reported complete B.S. Smack it head on. Showem the bull has horns, well that only if your not doing anything.

I bet they are at your house when you aren't home, you should trick them and be at home sometime. Also get a tripod and put a camera on it, whenever they show up just stand behind the tripod and turn the tripod with every move they make.  You also might try following them.

Damn man. Fuck them cops. I would start investigating them. Write down their license plate numbers, take pictures of their cars. Whatever it takes. Tell them you are going to press charges if they dont stop parking in your driveway or stalking you. Because that is just what it is. You should definitely compile some evidence on these pig-dog fucks. Make it your new hobby. Police the Police. And the fake camera thing isnt a bad idea. You can actually be like "oh, you dont have to have permission to walk through my yard? well this camera will tell them otherwise and its not just my word against yours. That would be funny. And then straight up ask them what the deal is. :shrug:

well the first thing you need to do is get rid of anything that might be a felony.  probably the old growing supplies; then if you get caught with weed its a simple misdemeanor.  but after i got rid of that stuff i would call the police station and ask why they continue to lurk around your house and neighborhood.  that would be much better than trying to walk up to a bored small town asshole cop. my bro is a cop and he hates small town cops(he calls them street nazis)  remember even cops have superiors.  if your really not breaking any laws besides smoking a little weed you I wouldnt lose any sleep over it.
