OK. What did Mr Hernandez do wrong? Other than misunderstanding what the Barney Fife said. Is it illegal in North Carolina to not speak good English?
Like the Sheriff's Dept. in Tucson, I think this deputy over reacted.
Ifthe facts are as reported, why is the county NOT responsible for falsely imprisoning Mr. Hernandez? Why is the county NOT responsible for replacing his tires. Why is the county NOT responsible for destroying his vacation.
Being an immigrant, a LEGAL immigrant does not negate his right to freely move about the country without fear of local police.
