Criminal Trespassing After Breaking Down in Car
My question involves criminal law for the state of: Lousiana
I am being charged with criminal trespassing in Lousiana because 1 night I was on way to uncles house and car was overheating due to thermostat so i decided to park car behind an old gas station that is no longer in business and abandoned. As i drive back there it is too wet and get stuck so I try get a hold of my friend to come pull me out and he is out of town. So i decide to just stay night in my car and call tow truck in morning about 10 next morning I wake up and call tow truck then, after called he said "was on his way." An old man walks up and asks "why my car was back there and everything." I explain to him "that my car was overheating last night and didnt want no 1 to mess with it and got stuck." First thing he said was I'm calling the sheriffs department so I was thinking wtf. As the tow guy was pulling me out the sherriff showed up and wrote me a ticket for criminal trespassing. Is this right? There was no signs posted or anything or was not given a warning to leave
