    Default Harassment and Public Drunkenness Charges

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: pa
    I was charged with harassment and pub drunkenness on 3-6-11. My neighbor came home and started cursing me out. She was with her husband and in her car. I was reversing into a parking spot at this time. Her husband called the cops after I went toe to toe in her verbal lashing. When the cops showed up, I was sitting on front step not saying a word. They immediately started questioning me. They told the cop that I had a weapon and threatened them but after a search of my property and me, they found nothing. I wasn't disorderly, or obnoxious until they cuffed me. They I became pissed.

    I am notsure how I can be charged with public drunkenness when I wasn't seen anywhere but on my property. I wasn't disorder ly or disruptive when the cops got there. No weapon was there and and it their word against mine...

    Confused

    If you could be seen from the public street, you were in public.
