      Bogus traffic ticket

      I just wanted you guys opinions on this matter. My 16 year old son got pulled over (lowered red truck) and got a ticket for a failure to stop ticket. He said he stopped. Honest Dad I really did. Yeah right you wouldn't get a ticket for that if you didn't son. Well we went and got the dash cam footage of the stop and it doesn't show him running the stop sign. The footage doesn't even show the stop sign or the stop.
      The cop couldn't have seen him stop or not stop due to the angle of the street. We go to court set the ticket up for a hearing. We see the prosecutor at the date and show her the footage. She agrees with me that the cop could not have seen him stop or not. She throws the ticket out.
      Now my wife wants to file a complaint against the cop that wrote the ticket as he had to have just been harassing her son.
      What would you guys do leave well enough alone or go and talk to his captain or what?
      I would upload the video but can't figure out how.

      The dash cam footage is from the police car. I just had to go down to city hall and fill out a request form. Always ask for the footage front and back of citation as cops write notes on back of their copy.
