His name is Milton "Larry" Fassett and he's a piece of garbage. He would always brag about inmates trying to get tough with him. Now I know what was really happen. I hope he feels like a real man and realizes that this is Karma coming back around on him. Believe me when I say that this jerk has done plenty of things to plenty of people not just at jail and this video shows what goes around truly does come back around.

I cannot belive the deputy just charged her like that, when she was obviously in a submissive position to begin with.

Cops = Bullies with badges

@Aw0L74 I can't agree with completely. A lot of people, like myself, don't like the police, not because they are all crocked, but because their job has shifted from public servant to revenue collector and corporate interest protector. The statistical odds of you having an encounter with an officer is via a traffic stop, not via him driving through your neighborhood and stopping and asking you how everything is going and how they can serve you better. But they are just following orders and quotas

[1775novten]

@Aw0L74 Yes, I totally agree with you. I believe you either misunderstood my original reply or I was not clear. Resisting arrest is a totally different matter all together. And I agree you can not resist arrest under any circumstances. However, you can refuse to comply with unlawful orders. But again, you are correct that a judge will be the one to ultimately decides who was correct. And if the judge sides with the officer, then you may get the additional charge of refusing to comply.

[1775novten]

@Aw0L74 I believe you may be referring to the charge of "resisting arrest". And that I agree you can not do, regardless whether it is a lawful arrest or not. You can refuse to comply with unlawful orders; however, you can not resist an arrest.

[1775novten]

@Aw0L74 Of course everyone will argue when they are being arrested, but there are proven cases of false arrest, or unlawful arrest. If I'm walking down the street with my pistol on my hip and an officer rolls up and demands I show him ID, even though I'm not suspected of committing a crime - and then I refuse to ID, because he doesn't have reason suspicion. He still might arrest me for not complying, but my case would be dismissed, because I had no requirement to show ID.

[Aw0L74]

@1775novten Now of course you start getting into a gray area when you have a run in with a corrupt cop who won't hesitate to make stuff up or the type who's on a power trip, but the ones who truly are that way ARE few & far between. Most people who hate police are just anti-authority & think the world should just be 1 big free for all where anything goes. 99% of those types would be wiped out on day 1 if they actually got their wish.

[Aw0L74]

@1775novten The system leaves it up to a judge & only a judge to determine if an order is lawful. For a resisting charge to hold up in court, it does not require the original charge to be upheld 100% of the time (mostly depends on the judge you get). The 2 "crimes" can be & most of the time are mutually exclusive of 1 another.

[Aw0L74]

@1775novten That's how the system is supposed to work in an ideal world but if that was the case, there wouldn't be a "resisting a law enforcement officer" charge on the record in all 50 states. Obviously nobody is going to think a cop ever has justification to do anything to them. Going 50mph in a 40mph zone? "Oh I wasn't going THAT fast, the cop should go after real criminals". About to be arrested? "They don't have any evidence to prove I did what they say I did".
