I detect a bit of /s despite lack of a tag.
Based on what I read, the deputies were completely professional & upstanding.
We’ve all read about worse encounters. The approached her without guns drawn to ask her about the car that matched one being reported stolen. Basic police work. To be clear, I do not support such pullovers without clear probable cause. If they did not have it, that should be actionable as well but not mentioned in reports.
County employees and lousy court staff (plus a pathetic Judge for putting his signature to such a non-specific bench warrant) are all to blame, not the deputies here. And despite her experience in jail (as reported), certainly not the Sheriff’s Dept. unless they held her past when she should otherwise have been released.
Most of us never have anything to worry about in such encounters with Sheriff’s Deputies. But it’s a hard lesson in ensuring you’re actually ‘cleared’ after paying a fine, etc. Myself, without elaborating, I am 100% sure I have nothing to worry about.
The wake-up call is, “Are others 100% sure???”
(that government bureaucrats/clerks did their job)
I've had two incidents in the past year involving gruberment bureaucrats/employees "not doing their job".
It's not their problem, in the game of Gruberment Tag. All they have to do is reach out and say, "Tag! You're It!"
Even after "you've made sure" you've been cleared after paying a fine, it's not necessarily true that you've been cleared.
And it's not their problem.
And they have guys to follow orders to gig you for not "being cleared".
One of the basic problems is that America is over-run with "law enforcement".
It's amazing that the Founders got along with without a cop or two under every rock.
These deputies needed to show some discretion. I suspect that there was a "hot MILF" factor involved in the kidnapping.
I think the inferences were plain on the face of the post. LOL! :)
