Hello! I'd be happy to help you with your criminal law question. Could you please clarify what exactly you're looking to understand?
i was arrested on a public intox where the officers arrest statement had false facts about me laying in the roadway when i was actually sitting in the grass on the side of the road. i was taken to jail and while i was at the jail, i had a mental episode and was charged with * serious felonies, escape 1st, assault 2nd twice, and disarming officer. do you think i can beat the public intox based on that false fact by the arresting officer and would that make everything else fall under the fruit of the poison tree doctrine since the arrest would been unlawful>?
While I can't provide specific legal advice, I can share some general information:
- You can challenge the officer's statement if you have evidence to prove its inaccuracy.
- The "fruit of the poisonous tree" doctrine applies to evidence obtained illegally. If your initial arrest is proven unlawful, it could potentially affect subsequent charges.
- It's crucial to have legal representation to navigate these complex issues.

l know u cant give legal advice but lets speak hypothetically here, would that be proper use of the doctrine?
Hypothetically, if an arrest is deemed unlawful, the "fruit of the poisonous tree" doctrine could potentially render evidence obtained from that arrest as inadmissible. However, this is a complex area of law and outcomes can vary greatly. It's advisable to consult with a legal professional.
okay, hypothetically again speaking.. say if she was in a hospital just *-hours before the arrest and also under the orders of a medical doctor, a doctor who recently changed her mental health medications while she was in a behavior unit at a hospital, and was released immediately against wishes of a person of interest which lived with. can that be used as a valid defense for all the charges
Hypothetically, any relevant medical condition or recent change in medication could potentially be used as part of a defense. However, the effectiveness of this defense would depend on various factors, such as:
- The nature and severity of the charges
- The impact of the medical condition or medication on the individual's behavior
- The views of the judge and jury
It's crucial to consult with a legal professional for advice tailored to the specifics of the case.
