[There is no law that prohibits providing this information outside the courthouse, only a decree issued by the same judge who now will hear the case against the man. The judge decreed that the only place information can be shared is in a so-called free-speech zone a football field away from the courthouse.] Activist Post 2012 Jan 13 (Cached)

Any other law is beyond the power of their creation and existence.] MSNBC 2012 Jan 10 (Cached)

A true story from Mount Isa in Queensland, Australia:
A police patrol car parked outside a local neighborhood
pub late in the evening. The officer noticed a man (Luke Sandery) leaving the bar so intoxicated he could barely walk. The man stumbled around the car park for a few minutes, with the officer quietly observing. After what seemed an eternity and trying his keys on five vehicles.
The man managed to find his car, which he fell into.
He was there for a few minutes as a number of other patrons left the bar and drove off.
Finally he started the car, switched the wipers on and off (it was a fine dry night). Then flicked the indicators on, then off, tooted the horn and then switched on the lights.
He moved the vehicle forward a few meters, reversed a little and then remained stationary for a few more minutes as some more vehicles left.
At last he pulled out of the car park and started to drive slowly down the road. The police officer, having patiently waited all this time, now started the patrol car, put on the flashing lights, promptly pulled the man
over, and carried out a breathalyzer test. To his amazement the breathalyzer indicated no evidence of the man’s intoxication.
The Police officer said, “I’ll have to ask you to accompany me to the police station – this
breathalyzer equipment must be broken.”
“I doubt it,” said the man. “Tonight I’m the designated decoy.”
