False ticket sent by mail. Found guilty from the officers testimony... SCAM!

[ATOA]

Jurisdiction

New Jersey

I got 2 tickets in the mail from a New Jersey police.
The date of the offense I was not on that location and a cop never pulled me.

After court hearing they set me in for trial, and the police gave his testimony that he was on his way home from work when I tailgated him and made my high beams on him for 5 miles... And although it's a year later he claims he still remembers my face...
When I started questioning him about the date and time, he changed dates in front of the judge and testified again...
Which is clearly false! And I am 100% sure that I was not on that place on that time.

My question is:
Can a police officer testify without proof?
Can he change stories in middle?
Can he change the date and time of the offense even if in the ticket it says a different date and time of offense?
Can he recognize a face from a year ago? And as per his story it was at night...
And can a police send a ticket a day after an offense when of the time of offense he was not on duty, and didn't pull me..?
Why does the judge believe the officer over my Google timeline location proof?

And what can I do now after I was found guilty?

Can a police officer testify without proof?

His testimony is "evidence." Whether that is adequate proof or not depends on your ability to disprove it.

Can he change stories in middle?

Obviously, he can, because he did.

Can he change the date and time of the offense even if in the ticket it says a different date and time of offense?

Again, he can, because he did.

Can he recognize a face from a year ago? And as per his story it was at night...

He says he can. It was up to you to disprove it.

And can a police send a ticket a day after an offense when of the time of offense he was not on duty, and didn't pull me..?

Yes to both. Police are never off duty. They might not be on shift, but never off duty.

Why does the judge believe the officer over my Google timeline location proof?

Because traffic tickets are cash cows for the municipality in which they are issued. Traffic judges are the cash collectors and will always give the officer more credibility than the poor sap who is a victim of the system.

I looked up "Google timeline location." Very interesting service. My insurance monitoring app does that for me. Unless it proved that you were somewhere else entirely at the time and date, it didn't prove that you didn't have your high beams on him at the time.

When it's word vs word, the officer wins.

And what can I do now after I was found guilty?

Again, he can, because he did.

That's my question...
I have to trust the court that whatever happened is correct?
Maybe it's corrupted...
Why is a police that changes dates, and claims he remembers someone's face from a year ago in the dark, credible?!

He says he can. It was up to you to disprove it.


Yes to both. Police are never off duty. They might not be on shift, but never off duty.

It clearly proved that I was somewhere else but the judge still gave the so called credible officer the trust...

I don't understand, can a police officer make up a story and testify and that's it?! What type of justice is that?!


And what can I bring to the appeals court?
Can I bring New proof that I wasn't there at that time?
And if the police will change time again?

And how can I get this corrupt officer fired?
