If someone with a PACER account could get us the Petition, that would be appreciated.
Thug sheriff needs to be looking for another job.
I am sure Jesse and rev. Al are in route.
I'm glad the HSLDL is on this; sue their butts off, get them where it hurts.
I can't imagine the trauma this family experienced, especially the children.
I'm Pro-police, not jack-booted thugs.
Cops acting at the behest of the Teacher’s Union again.
“Because of the warrantless search, the judge dismissed the case against the Hagans.”
At least the good judge had enough common and judicial sense to see the obvious. No need to call the Captain on this one.
Now the ball is in the Hagan’s court and I’m pretty sure this one will be a winner hands down. Let’s see how much this SNAFU is going to cost local taxpayers.
“Finally, the officers handcuffed and arrested Laura and Jason and charged them with resisting arrest and child endangerment.
All of this took place in front of the Hagans’ three young children, who were then taken to the emergency room to be evaluated for exposure to pepper spray.”
Wait, who was endangering the children?
“child protective services (CPS) caseworker had been inside the home several days earlier to investigate a report of a messy house and had returned for a follow-up visit.”
A messy house? My friend’s daughter didn’t get along with her sister-in-law and the SIL called CPS on her for a messy house. Great way to get revenge on someone.
A lot of CPS workers are power hungry thugs and gladly turn some dirty laundry on the floor into a felony.
Please people, let’s not call them jack-booted Nazi’s, they are obviously NOT behaving like stormtroopers here!
They didn’t just knock down the door and arrest everybody, they sprayed them with mace 5 times each, tazer the father 4 times, then arrested him. This is NOT jack-boot thuggery, this is American Justice!
Ban guns in the home, these parents couldn’t have gotten to them in time anyway.
It is perfectly legal to resist or ignore an unlawful order. Based on the fact the search got thrown out and charges dropped the family should walk away from this with a chunk of change.

And people here on FR are naive enough to think that county sheriffs are on our side. Hate to burst your bubbles, but to law enforcement, you are nothing more than a potential criminal to fine or incarcerate, nothing more, nothing less.
Just think if this family would have been...black.
I think those kids got some real schooling. They will not grow up ignorant.
This sheriff may be rotten to the core. He is a Democrat, but saying so is almost redundant:
I hope this couple sues the pants off the sheriff and deputy. The only problem is the town will likely foot the tab. These out of control cops should pay the freight.
Sooner or later they are going to try this no warrant crap with someone who’s gun is handy and there will be bloodshed.
