Hey?
Just a quick question. I don't have a lawyer but I'll be questioning the police officer who arrested me . How should I bring up a conversation I over heard him and his partner had calling me a " waffle face."

Why would you? It's almost assuredly irrelevant to the charge at hand. Stick to the charge at hand and the evidence of that.

Well its in part to show how they were biased against me.

Do you live in a majority pancake area?

How drunk/stoned were you?

I had been drinking earlier in the night.

OK. So what were you being charged with / questioned about / investigated for?
Why were they biased against you?

That's almost completely irrelevant.
All that's relevant is whether you did the thing they're accusing you of. That's it. Do they, or do they not, have enough evidence to show you committed the crime?
If they do, you're boned. They could've called you every terrible name you can think of and it's functionally irrelevant. Focus on the evidence of the crime at hand - that's the only way you have a prayer of winning this.

What exactly are you trying to do? Why are you questioning a police officer? What kind of insult is "waffle face"?

I take it to mean this guy was being annoying in the backseat. It doesn't seem they actually did anything though.

It is completely inappropriate but this is hysterical... and considering tree boy was probably sauced to the max it's one of those "shit - he remembered that" things they can question him about and flip the script. (OP wasn't really tracking the questions being asked while posting)
If this is a "cop term" for a BRAKE CHECK! I think I have a new reason to giggle randomly.
WAFFLE FACE See PANCAKE. A pancake happens when you have a polycarbonate divider instead of a screen. Its usually followed up with "Did you see that dog I almost hit him!"

The face you make after you waffle stomp.

Oh - good grief. I saw waffle stomp and.. googled. I shouldn't have done that. I had a completely different idea of what that meant.
Thanks urban dictionary for completely ruining me thinking "waffle stomp" had something to do with a combat boot (kicking the **** out of it until it fits) on a piece of equipment that didn't fit where it belonged. This got gross.
This will be an interesting thread to watch.

aka "heel it down the drain"
as in what OP should do with this line of questioning towards the officer.
1
He asked me when I was in the back seat if I had any injuries I told him what my complaints were and he said yea right..... then on the police report he wrote injuries consistant with victim statement. He also left out a massive amount of the little I did say .

Whatever you do, don't look up blue waffle.

The problem with that is that I google for a living. I'm really good at boolean searches and I get pretty specific so I have never seen the "ick" image (Don't share. That's not a request) But the attempt at making me gag is appreciated. :D
Waffle stomp took me by surprise. (gross)

Not sure if troll.
You can just ask, "Did you call me a waffle face?"
But it will almost certainly have no bearing at all on the criminal case against you.
Which a lawyer would have known.
Which is why it's good to have a lawyer.
No I'm being serious when his partner got in he asked what's up with him and that's when he said it.
And I am being serious.
It has no bearing at all on the crime you're charged with.
The officer could look at you in court and say, "Yes, I called you a waffle face" and the judge would not care at all.
If you want to file a complaint about the officer being rude, you do that with the department.
But it will have no bearing on the outcome of your court case. They are two separate issues.
Thanks.
