where can I find legal aid if i was unlawfully arrested for disorderly conduct because I asked the officer if i had to make a statement as a witness. He then threw me up against the wall and arrested me.I am a mother of three and a grandmother. I have been so humiliated. I just dont have thousands of dollars for an attorney,but will NOT plead guilty. I live in Walton co.,Social circle, Ga. We have a small town where the police here are already under investigation for abuse of power.
