After six years, Roscoe is finally graduating from college. In celebration he invites 20 of his friends to a party being held at his apartment. As the party continues into the nighttime hours, neighbors call Roscoe to complain

He simply replies, "Loosen up. My days in college are over and I will be gone tomorrow." About midnight, several neighbors call the police and complain about the noise. A police officer responds to the scene and asks Roscoe to calm down the sound. Roscoe agrees but 30 minutes later several neighbors call the police again. The same police officer returns to the apartment complex and determines he can hear the party from inside his patrol car while parked on the city street. At this point the officer: A) would be legally justified to cite the partiers for disorderly conduct. B) must precisely measure the sound level with a decibel meter before he may take legal action against Roscoe. C) should obtain sworn complaints from at least two of the complaining neighbors. D) is legally required to summon a supervisor to the scene to confirm that the party noise is violating the disorderly conduct statute.
