Would me (19, college student) getting a part time job be a good way to make up to my parents for giving them court costs for my underage drinking and obstruction arrest?

So I am 19 and a few days back I got arrested for underage drinking and obstruction. I got transported to the police department and was allowed to leave only after like 6 hours with citations. Since these are misdemeanors not just tickets like speeding tickets and I have to go to court I also need a lawyer, will likely pay fines and do community service so it will cost my parents.

I am not employed right now and just go to college and my parents have always been loving, even getting me a car recently and I feel very bad about letting them down. Since they'll likely have to cash out a few thousand dollars on a lawyer and my fines and they are not cutting my allowance I feel very guilty and am wondering would getting a part time job to pay off my court costs be a good way to make it up?

Can cops see open cases when they run plates or driver's licenses?

So I was driving and I failed to use my turn signal. A cop pulled me over, she took my license and she ran it. She came back to my car and let me off with a warning.

  1. Did she see that I have an open case for MIP (underage drinking) and obstruction in Washington when she ran my license or when she ran my plate?
  2. Will I be pulled over more because of this even if I don't break any traffic laws like I did here or is that not a justifiable reason to pull me over?

I am not complaining about the stop, I broke a traffic rule and got pulled over, I just want to know if I'll be pulled over more until my case gets resolved.

Can cops see I have an open case when they run my plate?

Location: Washington

So I was driving and I failed to use my right turn signal. A cop pulled me over, she took my license and ran it. She came back to my car gave me a verbal warning and I was on my way.

  1. Did she see that I have an open case for MIP and obstruction in Washington when she ran my license or even before when she ran my plate?
  2. Will I be pulled over more because of this even if I don't break any traffic laws like I did here or is that not a justifiable reason to pull over a car?

To be clear I am not complaining about this stop, I broke a rule I got pulled over and I am glad that I got off with only a warning but I just want to know if I should be on the lookout for lights and sirens in my rear view mirror since the last thing I want is to not notice a cop car trying to pull me over and get in more trouble.

I (f19) got arrested for MIP and obstruction a few days ago how to make up to my parents since they got me a car a few weeks back?

So I (F19) got busted for MIP (drinking under 21) and obstruction a few days back and I had to spend the night at the police department's cell and have a court date.

Now a few weeks back my mom and dad got me a car and now I feel massive guilt. I haven't been driving it much and even though I did apologize to them and they are less angry now I still feel guilt.

How to make it up to them? How to get over that guilt?

My boyfriend says he finds my MIP/obstruction arrest funny and refuses to accept that it's serious and not a joke how to explain to him that this is not a joke?

So I (F19) got busted for MIP (drinking under 21) and obstruction a few days back I had to spend the night at the police department's cell and have a court date but my boyfriend (M23) says that he finds it funny and refuses to acknowledge that for me it was a pretty scary experience and that I am super stressed now over my court dates and that I am anxious because I do not know what exactly to expect.

I told him this is not funny but he refuses to accpet that and just laughs it off.

How to explain to him that this is serious?

Is it ok to still carry pepper spray if I am facing MIP/obstruction charges?

LOCATION: Washington

So I was arrested a few days back and charged with:

Minor in Possession (RCW 66.44.270.3A)

Obstructing a Law Enforcement Officer (RCW 9A.76.020)

It was a dumb mistake and I regret it (I also want to apologize for how I acted on my previous post here I was out of line refusing to accept that my opinions on the law do not allow me to ignore it) but I want to know if it is still legal and safe for me to carry pepper spray?

Being a 19yo woman I feel safer with it but fear if I use it, it could hurt my case if the guy I use it on claims it wasn't self defense...

Will I get disciplined by the university over this?

NOT IN PULLMAN I WILL NOT SAY WHICH CITY AS I DO NOT WANT TO DOX MYSELF.

Yesterday, I 19f was walking on a sidewalk with a friend, I had a can of beer in my hand and the police approached me and stopped me.

They asked me for my ID I said that I do not have any and tried to walk away saying "Ok, I will just go". the cop told me I am not free to leave and handcuffed me behind my back. She sat me down on the curb and asked me for my name and DOB while I was giving my name (before I gave middle or last) I slipped a cuff and tried to run away. The cops grabbed me in seconds and reapplied the cuffs.

I was taken to the police department and spent the the night there. They also took a mugshot and scanned my fingerprints. I was NOT taken to jail just to the police department.

So what can I expect FROM THE UNIVERSITY? My charges are:

Minor in Possession (RCW 66.44.270.3A)

Obstructing a Law Enforcement Officer (RCW 9A.76.020)
