I was charged with assault on a peace officer. I never bit the cops arm like he said. Theybstopped the car on the way to the county jail and one cop grabbed my legs and pull from the driver side and the other cop tried putting me in a choke hold but wrapped his arm around my face and squeezed as hard as he could while pulling the opposite way. As he pulled te opposite way my top tweth sunk into his skin. I bit not bite him so there were not bottom marks.
