Rico Thunder gets a pair of matching bracelets because he would not show is ID to the police. What was his crime though? He was suspected of having a suspicious vehicle.

Rico gets the window rolled up on his neck. Why should UCSC's repression be expanded?

Rico's suspicious vehicle. He was suspected of supplying materials to the tree-sit... but he was only helping to supply some percussion. Trash Orchestra is not a crime.
