To make it short, the judge is pissed at all the incompetence with the entire way the investigation was handled, tried to get ahold of the investigator, and couldn't reach him. He finally asked her to come back next week, due to not being able to dismiss it today without going through the proper channels, but assured her she was in no trouble and would take care of things by next week and dismiss it then. It seems a different Ashley R, a black woman had charged up several Verizon accounts, forging her mothers name, and the mother was suing the daughter to get it stopped. All along, the people signing every piece of paperwork knew the woman was black. We don't know how yet Ashley's birthday and Ss# appeared on the black woman's mug shot.
Next week she is going to an attorney to see what her options are. Thank you everyone for all your opinions, as this has helped us a lot.
Thats awesome news, and about as much as I had figured, Did you daughter get the chance to tell her side to the Judge about what had transpired during the whole arrest process?
I hope your daughter takes my advice, Scorched Earth Policy is the way to go here, and Im pretty sure the judge will probably even back it!
RELIGION IS LIKE A PENIS
Its fine to have one,
Its fine to be proud of it,
But please dont whip it out in public and start waving it around,
And PLEASE dont try to force it down my children's throats.
An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life.
She didn't have the time to tell 100%, but he heard enough to know they screwed up big time. We know an attorney who lives for this kind of thing, and will see him next week.
Glad the shit is getting straightened up. Still somebody's head needs to roll over that.
Give a man fire, and he'll be warm for a day!
Light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life!
Cat's are food... not friends!
If you're going to fight, then fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp into Noah's arc... and brother, it's starting to rain.
There is a term "due diligence", which is required to be done by the arresting officer. I would think since your daughter was white and the suspect was black that is what the FBI calls a clue!!! Obviously the judge knew the difference. I appears the jailer was covering for the arresting officer after the initial arrest. I would have a nice long talk with an attorney. The arrest sounds squirrely to begin with, he dropped her off in front of the jail??? There is absolutely no reason for not telling her what the charge was, or did he even know? He does not have to give her her Miranda rights because he did not ask her about the crime. I see the only crime is the performance of the officer. In our state we can only use small claims to recover actual costs, do no let anyone tell you to do this, you need an attorney. In our state forgery is a felony and would warrant a public defender, did she have one? If so make sure you get copies of all reports. If you do not want to go to a lawsuit I would certainly have a nice long talk with the Chief of Police. I am a cop and it is things like this that really piss me off. The guy was either very inexperienced or a real douchebag.
I hope the "investigator" gets the book thrown at him. Don't settle for less than a mill. Talk about damaging her reputation, Public humiliation AND loss of income.
Glad to hear that all is well and the only thing lost was some time.
I don’t have “hobbies” I’m developing a robust Post-Apocalyptic skill set.
