You ever heard that saying "Everything happens for a reason" ?
What if I were to say I don't believe in that, what is your response? I rarely come across it, but its happened a few times in my life. I've heard of it happening to others, they might spin some bs reason just to justify why it happened, but in actuality, there is no true reason. Most things in my life do happen for a reason, however, a few just... for no apparent reason happen and I'm left with absolutely no true answer and only theories of my own.
One case in particular, which is my most remembered incident. I've told it to many people, nobody can ever give me a true, justified reason it happened. "Oh he was a jerk" "Oh he just had the wrong person" no, that does not work. I want the reason, he did such. I want the true reason. But it never came to me.
It was in July 2005. I was in a program for those who have physical and mental handicaps. They help you, integrate into living independently with your disability. I wont go into too much detail, but I do have a physical disability.
Anyways, it happened the day after Independence Day here in the United States. July 5th. I was going to go out shopping for groceries. Got up at around 10am, took a shower. My roommate came to my room and said a police officer was at the door and wanted to speak to me.
So I get dressed and greet the officer. This is what the conversation that transpired.
*greets officer*
Officer: You know there was a window peeping incident at another complex last night?
Me: No, I did not know that. I wasn't home, was at my folks house with my girlfriend celebrating the holiday.
Officer: No. You were the one window peeping. I know you did it.
*I'm shocked at this*
Me: I was not home at all last night. When did this occur? I have at least twenty people including my parents and girlfriend who I can call to confirm where I was at when this happened.
Officer: Don't lie to me, I know it was you. And next time I come out here for an incident, I'm arresting you.
Me: Well if you think it was me, why don't you arrest me now?
*The officer just scoffs at my remark and leaves*
He didn't bother giving me a time this happened. Just walked away. I ended up filing a complaint against him. I got a copy of the police report. Or at least what they could give me. The report said around 8:30pm a 5'4" hispanic male in his mid 50s and medium build was reported peering into windows and making cat calls and whistles.
I'm 6'2", I'm white and I'm a walking skeleton. I tower over people who are 5'4", I towered over this officer. There is no possible way I was the suspect.
What I don't understand is, if the report was made the night before and they had the description, why didn't they take the description to the program owner? There was only one person who matched that description and he was in the program. He was a hispanic, and he lived right near where that incident took place.
Why me? The only theory I have is the fact it was a mental/physical handicap environment and the cop was just a biased jerk and decided to hand pick me from random and profile me. He didn't have the credentials, he knew he couldn't arrest me, I would have sued his ass into the stone ages if he had.
I never heard back from the report I made. I called two months later, left a message with the complaint number. No reason. No explanation. Nothing.
Does anyone, out there, have an explanation or reason?
Some say "There's more to the story"
no
I've never been in trouble with the law. Not once. Can't say the same for my brother though...
