Some personal context: I currently have a criminal charge pending for walking on the streets that I govern.

I was arrested & charged with "failure to disperse upon command" at 10pm last night I was held on a $1,000 unsecured bond. I was released at 1am. I went to Beatties Ford Road in my official capacity as City Council Member At Large.
