Lawsuit alleges Boone County Deputies falsely arrested husband, wife

Yes. You will get a copy eventually.

 

That seems absurd to me, but learn something new every day.

Based on what the suit alleges his actions were, does it appear he committed a crime?

 

Based on just his attorneys account in the lawsuit? No, it doesn't. But I'm sure there is more to the story.

[halfback20]

Obviously.

 

Again, I'm going off what is in the suit. If all he did was tell them to let go of his wife and instruct his neighbor to record the incident, does that constitute an arrest?

 

It depends. I wasn't there. If he's interfering with them making an arrest he's getting too involved IMO.

Do you think police walk around with copies of every single warrant ever issued?

[UKMustangFan]

Based on just his attorneys account in the lawsuit? No, it doesn't. But I'm sure there is more to the story.

 

I'm sure there is as well.

 

This is all we have to go off of as of now though. I'm simply trying to figure out what the officers could be facing on the (off) chance that it actually happened as described in the suit.

[halfback20]

Are those considered one in the same, or is it a separate matter altogether? I'd assume it's separate, but maybe it's not.

 

I'm not sure, but its not relevant imo. He had a warrant. He's an adult.

[UKMustangFan]

Do you think police walk around with copies of every single warrant ever issued?

 

Clearly not. I don't think it would be too difficult to provide a copy when they get them to the station, would it? Or is that what you meant by "they'll get one eventually"?

[UKMustangFan]

I'm not sure, but its not relevant imo. He had a warrant. He's an adult.

 

Maybe it's not relevant, I don't know. Hence the reason for my question.

[Jumper_Dad]

Interesting fact for those that don't already know this.

 

The vast majority of arrest every day in this state are for "Failure to Appear" (Didn't show up for court) "Non Payment of Fines" (what it sounds like) or "Bench Warrants" (Various violations of court conditions)

IF it happened like the story states I would guess the officers will have trouble explaining the arrest of mom and dad. However, unless there is some video or voice recording it will be he said she said I would think. They did something to prompt the officers to arrest them so the deputies could just state mom was interfering with them arresting junior and dad was being disorderly.

So hypothetically an officer could go up to anyone and tell them they have a warrant for their arrest and not have to produce said warrant?

 

I'm sure they could. They would most likely be in a lot of trouble when they got the person to the police station and didn't have a warrant or reason for the arrest.

[halfback20]

Clearly not. I don't think it would be too difficult to provide a copy when they get them to the station, would it? Or is that what you meant by "they'll get one eventually"?

 

I think they get a copy at the jail.

[Jumper_Dad]

I'm sure they could. They would most likely be in a lot of trouble when they got the person to the police station and didn't have a warrant or reason for the arrest.

 

Arresting someone for no reason, never really goes over well. :lol2:

I think they get a copy at the jail.

 

There is no official timeline other than "as soon as possible" from what I've read.

Far be it for an attorney to stretch the truth when filing a suit...
