The real person who was the subject of the warrant failed to show up on a theft charge. This should indicate that the woman was, at some time prior, arrested, booked, FINGERPRINTED, and then somehow released.
The article seems to suggest that it is possible to be arrested in one state and EXTRADITED to another state without a fingerprint verification of identity?
If I were on a civil jury hearing the case of the unjustified extradition of this woman, I would be extremely generous in rewarding her for her pain and suffering and very severe in punishing those responsible for maintaining and carrying-out such negligent policies.
I might also consider rewarding the plaintiff with damages against the lawyers who evidently failed to get a court order in a timely fashion to do a fingerprint identification.
I agree with everything you wrote. I know things like this happen but it usually never get’s beyond the LEO, let alone the police station. I don’t know how this got out of hand.
