Stuttering and being questioned by the police

When I was eighteen years of age I had my first and only experience of being questioned by the police. I was on the way home from a house party and it was around two o'clock in the morning. I lived only a few minutes away from where the house party was held and therefore decided to walk home, despite how late it was.

As I was walking a police car drove past and screeched to a halt. Two policeman got out of the car and approached me, I was soon being bombarded with a barrage of questions, they basically wanted to know why I was out so late at night. Looking back I am not really surprised that they probably thought I was up to no good.

Despite the fact that I knew that I had done nothing wrong, I soon became very nervous and for some reason, very worried. I found it extremely difficult to speak any word fluently and these policeman saw my stutter at its very worse.

I am convinced to this day that they must have then believed that I had done something wrong but to be fair to them they reacted very well to the situation. They attempted to calm me down and I told them that about the fact that I had a stuttering problem. I was even lucky enough to be given a lift home from them.

I felt really low when I got home and was well aware that these policeman would have a great laugh about the situation for many months to come.

For the next few years I made sure that I kept away from any form of trouble. I did not ever want to be questioned by the police again and I certainly did not want to ever have to appear in court.
