And if I had been on that jury I would have just listened and said as little as possible. I probably would have been voting against the cop who wanted to write his reports in Spanish only if that was the case. If he could have done it in both languages more power to him. Access to the legal system is important.


I am referring to the 2009 Federal case in which the Claremont Hispanic police officer was writing his reports in Spanish and being harassed because of it. They might have been in English and Spanish.
