LOL. This is the level of discourse you are capable of. I am glad that you took the time to get the facts that you didn't have before.
Which means his fingerprints, mugshot were not taken. If the prosecutor had decided to proceed on this bogus “charge” then he would have had to be “booked.”
So unless the prosecutor decides to pursue the charges, someone is not booked? That doesn't make sense. People are booked all the time without waiting for the prosecutor's decision.
The Trump camp has contested the assertion that Corey was "arrested." Here is the FL Criminal Code on Notice to appear
If I recall, your post doesn't include it, there was a court date set sometime in May. The prosecutor appears to have short-circuited the process without Corey even having his day in court. Does this really constitute an arrest and something that will be on his record?
Again, so what? The prosecutor, despite all the drama is not proceeding with any ‘charge’ because the case is bs. Just like your posting.
I have always said it was BS, including the "arrest." Trump's political opponents and the MSM made it into a much larger issue than it really was. Cruz and Kasich called for the firing of Corey. 16 female "journalists" signed a petition calling for his removal and that criminal charges were justified.
At 2 PM we will hear from the Clinton supporter prosecutor who will no doubt imply that the decision not to prosecute does not mean that Corey was innocent of the charges, just that they had insufficient evidence to convict him. And then the drumbeat will once again start for his removal.
In the meantime Fields is threatening a civil suit against Corey and Trump for defamation. It is all BS, but you need to do your homework before making assumptions. And name calling does nothing for your assertions.
Perhaps you could answer a question about the Incident Report.
Is there a copy somewhere that spells out what the actual incident (allegations?) were?
The only thing I’ve seen is blank where the complainant’s description would go.
IE: Where is this verbage: “He then tried to yank me to the ground. He walked away. I showed my colleague large bruises.”
That page has circulated as if it’s irrefutable proof that the incident happened exactly as described—but I can’t find where it IS described in the JPD’s report.
Thanks!
“LOL. This is the level of discourse you are capable of. I am glad that you took the time to get the facts that you didn’t have before.”
Well you’re the one who basically called me ignorant. That’s ok I’ve been through many flame wars. But then don’t get all passive aggressive when it comes back to you.
Secondly, I had been looking at this document all along. With some other helpful suggestions it is clear that (a) he was arrested and (b) he wasn’t processed i.e., booked. Now I ask myself why didn’t you in the first place seek this document out instead of giving a lot of meaningless posting and wasting everyone’s time. At least I had the inclination to not be persuaded by others opinion as to whether he was arrested or not. I looked at the police statement stating he was and then I went to the source document which confirms he was. Now you, the Trump team et. al. may disagree and state it wasn’t a valid arrest but that is entirely a different issue.
“So unless the prosecutor decides to pursue the charges, someone is not booked? That doesn’t make sense. People are booked all the time without waiting for the prosecutor’s decision.”
Again, a simple search would turn up an answer to this which is in the affirmative. And it does make sense. In fact, it’s giving the poor guy the benefit of the doubt and letting the prosecution kick it before they print and mug shot him:
For example for one lawyer:
“You need to go to the court on the date listed on the citation. You could call the DA to ensure that the case was filed prior to the date. Sometimes they are not filed and you’d waste a trip to the jail. The court will order a “book and release” which, as other lawyers have told you, means they need to get your fingerprints, photo, address, etc. You will not go into custody. However, if you don’t show up on the date told, there will be a warrant, which means you could go into custody. You should consult an attorney immediately to discuss a diversion program.”

Now a simple search would have helped you instead of me having to spoon feed you.
“If I recall, your post doesn’t include it, there was a court date set sometime in May. The prosecutor appears to have short-circuited the process without Corey even having his day in court. Does this really constitute an arrest and something that will be on his record?”
That’s how weak this case actually is that the prosecutor wouldn’t even let it go to the first appearance date.
And yes we are all otherwise on the same wavelength about this dumb-arse broad and her vendettas.
