Locked Up!!
Do or did you ever have a family member in jail and, if you can talk about it, what for?

Re: Locked Up!!
One is in jail for murder and the other one, long ago, was for drunk and disorderly and hitting a Cop!.............but I'm sane!  Yeah, right!

Re: Locked Up!!
I only have a cousin who went to jail one night. He illegally tuned his moped and got caught doing 80 MPH in a residential zone, and failed to stop for the police. He got chased through town, he escaped, but they picked him up at home. He had to serve 80 hours of community work after his night in jail. (he was 16 at the time).
That's about as bad as it gets in my family I think.

Re: Locked Up!!
My fathers father who is now no longer with us had stockade tattoos (they signify you've been in the Royal Navy prison) on his arms. He never mentioned them, he never explained them, I don't think anyone ever realised what they were. No one knows anything about when and why he got them and its a bit late to ask him or his wife who also passed away.

Re: Locked Up!!
I don't believe anyone in my family has been to jail. However, I have ridden in the back of a Police car twice in my life.

People do the craziest thing under influence and can't remember. I am not so sure about you  .
My greatgrandfather spent 6 weeks in jail for saying the Nazis were militarily speaking well organised (the fact that he helped people escape the death camps was conveniently ignored by the law). Post-war vengeance.
My grandfather on the side of the family spent quite some time in prison camps - shipped out to the death camps 3 times, and luckily escaped three times as well.
Other than that no contact with "the law" in my family.

Hey, I remember everything I do when I am under the influence. Sometimes I wish I didn't but I do, so there.
