Today, after my parents left for the weekend, my "friends" decided to throw a party at my house, despite my protests. In order to get them to leave, I called the police. I was the only one arrested, while they got warnings. FML

Today, it's my birthday. A month ago, I'd told everyone I invited to my party that it was going to be adults only. One of my friends brought her kids with her anyway, then started screaming and trashing the place when I politely asked her to leave. The cops had to be called to finally get her out of my house.

Today, I went to a party and the cops came to bust the party. I jumped out the window of a second story house in order to avoid getting arrested. I broke my leg in three places and got a concussion. The cops let everyone go with a warning. FML

Being boring

Today, I had my 18th birthday party. At midnight, three police officers showed up at my door and asked if they could look around. Were we doing anything bad? Nope. My friends suck at parking. Before they left, the officers said that this was the most toned down party they'd seen in years. FML

Unruly meets incompetence

Today, I was in the library when police arrested me for threatening people. The librarian even told them I did nothing wrong, and that the actual girl they wanted had already left. They took me in anyway. My dad sided with the police and let me “think about what I did” in jail overnight. FML

Today, as I returned home, I noticed some movement inside my house. Thinking it was a break-in, I called 911. It was my friends and some coworkers trying to throw me a surprise birthday party. Nobody's said a word to me since. FML

Today, my parents yelled at me for coming home drunk from a party last night. They said I couldn't hang out with my best friend anymore as he's a "bad influence". He was the only one sober in our group and drove me home safely. FML

Self report

Today, I thought I had gotten away with throwing a party while my folks were gone the night before. They came home and I was as sweet as possible. I could tell they were not buying it, but I thought I was in the clear. Later, they told me I had drunk-dialled them and spilled the beans. FML

Today, I was the designated driver. On the way home with my drunk friends, they decide to give me a beer shower. I swerved, and was pulled over by a cop moments after. I was the only one arrested. FML

Today, one of my friends got me in trouble when he called our house and asked my parents why they didn't see us at a school conference. My parents were at a meeting elsewhere at the time, so I didn't bother to tell them about it, as we couldn't have gone there to begin with, and it was voluntary. They're mad anyway. FML

PARTAY!

By Life of the party - 19/08/2009 05:13 - France

Today, I threw a party while my parents were gone. I forgot that our alarm automatically turns on at 11 pm, so when people opened the door, it went off. I couldn't find the number for the alarm company, so the cops showed up. Everyone started cheering because they thought they were strippers. FML

Don't bother with those people any longer, OP. They don't respect your property or your opinions and they will just end up using you for as long as they can get away with it.

If my "friends" disrespected my protests and threw a party in my home without my permission, I would no longer consider them friends.

That is bull, you called to remove a party you didn't want at your house, they should have been arrested for breaking and entering.

It's not breaking and entering if they were let in by OP. See #16 query.

That is still trespassing.

I think it is because s/he is (or is likely) a minor, and is hosting a party (whether s/he wants to or not) at home without a supervising parent or legal guardian. Not to mention that there was possibly alcohol use...

I think your parents will respect your decision, and your lawyer will get you off with no blemish to your record.

"Help, police! These people invaded my home." "Alright, let's take a trip downtown." "Ha ha! Ya hear that guys? You're going downtown! Serves you right!" "No, kid, not them, you." "..." O.O

At least you know that you did the right thing! I wouldn't consider them friends if they would put you in trouble like that. Sorry about that OP, hope everything works out for you!

Should've called the cops and then hid around the corner til it was cleared out.

I would like to know the charge. There is more to this story, which makes it hard to say fyl/ydi. I'm wondering Op's age, possible underage drinking/drugs, breaking and entering (didn't have parents permission to be there, could have been left with relatives?). Where I'm from you don't get arrested for asking the police to remove trespassers from your own home.

If the friends brought booze or drugs OP could very well be charged since it was his house.

AngrySailor 17

Monday 15 July 2013 19:37

Keep in mind OP called the police. I guess it would depend on the situation and local laws. Hypothetically , OP may have called to have trespassers who brought drugs and alcohol removed from the home. If so, why was OP arrested? As I said earlier, there MUST be more this situation.

Since its taking place on OP's property.. Anything found on op's property is considered their responsibility. For example.. If you got pulled over and your friend hid heroine in your car that you didn't know about.. You would be charged with possession. It's pretty lame.

Ok 43- that's a whole different scenario. Think of it this way. "Hello police. There is a man breaking into my house and he has a gun. Please help" "we got him, and you're under arrest for an illegal firearm in the house also"

Perhaps OP didn't give their name to the police when they complained and when the police came then they thought it was all OP's fault. Another idea is that either only OP is underage to drink or only OP is old enough to drink. Being underage in the presence of alcohol could technically be enough for cops to charge an underaged person with underage drinking. If only OP is old enough to drink, then there could be a supplying alcohol to underaged charge because it's his house. I've heard of the rare case where underaged people are charged with both when it's a party at their house and everyone is underage, but usually police tend to be more concerned with one or the other. Plus it wouldn't fit why OP got in trouble, but the friends didn't. There is another option that the friends overheard OP talking to the police and one of pretended to be the caller to the police. (Especially if OP is a minor and doesn't have a form of identification to verify his identity.) The friends also of paid of some cops earlier, but that option is a little more far fetched.
