I will remind everyone that the West Virginia State Police command was recently mostly fired because they were all corrupt shitwits abusing their power and state resources including covering up for a dude who was running a camera in the women's locker room at their academy and then trying to nail a whistleblowing trooper on fake charges they got out of an ex girlfriend.
That's the state police. It gets no prettier at the local level. Sheriffs departments are highly variable across the country. The sheriff in my county is, as best I know, a straight shooter. His predecessor isn't sheriff anymore because he was caught driving drunk home from what can only be described as an orgy with his staff. The sheriff in the county adjacent at the moment is a closeted homosexual who has promoted a bunch of other closeted homosexuals and you'd need a whiteboard to track out all the dudes fucking other dudes inside the department. But he's at least not as corrupt as the dude before him...or at least not yet. What happens when one of the members of the homo orgy club breaks the law and then threatens to blow all that up? Who knows. Beyond the openly corrupt there are plenty of them out there who have no fucking idea how anything actually works or what the limits of their powers are because the department does a shit job of training them on that, or has a regular practice of breaking the law themselves because nobody ever challenges it. The sheriff and the prosecutor/commonwealth's attorney and the judges and most of the lawyers and elected city/county officials all hang out together. It's a club. You aren't in it. Expecting justice out of that kind of arrangement is...optimistic at best. |

Quoted: Depending on what was actually said or posted online it is possible that there was PC for a criminal threatening charge. The DA dismissing the charge does not mean there wasn't PC at the time of the arrest. It only means they didn't wish to pursue the charges. (Which happens a lot) When the guy told the deputy to go get the warrant after he threatened to do so, that is when he decided to arrest him. Honestly a lot of LEO's need a hard reset on how they handle interactions like this. When someone says "fuck off I'm done talking" that shouldn't change the course of their investigation. I.E. trigger an arrest. Obviously there are many times where an officer has every intention of arresting the individual before they even speak to them and may try to have a conversation prior to that arrest. That doesn't appear to be the case here since the officer says in the video that he just wanted to talk to him. It sure looks like the guy got arrested for not following the "respect my authority" mantra. I see many elected Sheriffs that have the old school mentality and honestly it isn't a good thing most of the time. Hopefully it is a learning experience for everyone involved. View Quote Did you listen to the whole interaction? What was allegedly posted was discussed by the deputy in the video. It does not even come close to probable cause for arrest on a terroristic threat. Why do you think the prosecutor didn't want to touch this? The answer is that they knew this deputy violated his civil rights plainly and clearly. On camera. And standing behind that bullshit situation would provide the guy with more lawsuit ammunition as well as tarnish his office ethically. The deputy showing up on the guy's property to ask him about it and refusing to let him leave also constitutes a custodial interrogation. So if your theory of the deputy arriving with all the probable cause he needed was actually the case, he should not have been asking him questions about it without Miranda. The fact that he didn't shoots that theory down for me ab initio. And it's out of step with common sense to threaten to go and get an arrest warrant while you already sit on all the probable cause required. You know who already has way more than enough probable cause but won't do jack shit here? The FBI Civil Rights division. |

I'll gladly do that for you" We're now at an implied status of "come back with a warrant", and the deputy has even agreed to it. "I gotta go to work. (see ya later)" "Hold on, I ain't done talking to you" "Bleep bleep bleep" (I'm done talking to you, come back with a warrant like you just promised to do) |

When these things pop off, I end up getting all sorts of messages with inside information, some conflicting, some corroborating the others. Best as I can piece together, the sheriff and the prosecutor actually do not like each other. I think the sheriff wasn't happy about the prosecutor dismissing the charges, and I believe they went after Paul for something unrelated, which is still pending. So you have a trifecta of the county commission wanting to do the right thing, the prosecutor wanting nothing to do with any of it, and the sheriff grandstanding. I've heard that the county commission would like to remove the sheriff. But it's very difficult to do so, and expensive and time consuming. Because an elected sheriff in WV is entitled to due process in the form of basically a trial of sorts, prior to removal. And I don't believe he has very long left on his term. But guys like that are always running for something, or have some government job in their sights. And I want to say someone said he ran for county commission himself and lost. Anyways, he apparently has some well known skeletons and should have just STFU. |

Quoted: The funny thing is I've received maybe a dozen messages from anonymous cops in that area with all sorts of information on this sheriff, including an incident with body cam footage that will be the subject of a future video. That's how I know when I've found a really good one, because other cops love to spill the beans - at least privately or anonymously. View Quote Excited for that video |

It does not even come close to probable cause for arrest on a terroristic threat. Without seeing or hearing everything the deputy did I can't say if PC existed or not, only that it might be possible.

The answer is that they knew this deputy violated his civil rights plainly and clearly. On camera. And standing behind that bullshit situation would provide the guy with more lawsuit ammunition as well as tarnish his office ethically. I am not standing behind this situation, only making observations. The deputy showing up on the guy's property to ask him about it and refusing to let him leave also constitutes a custodial interrogation.

Potential exceptions being hot pursuit, or PC plus exigent circumstances. Or a warrant, of course. Observing PC for certain crimes is going to be exigent circumstances. E.g., starts attacking someone. We agree with the district court that no exception to the warrant requirements applies here. Reasonable suspicion and probable cause, absent "exigency [or] emergency," are insufficient to justify a warrantless search and seizure on the curtilage of a suspect's property. United States v. Struckman, 603 F.3d 731, 738 (9th Cir. 2010) (quoting United States v. Martinez, 406 F.3d 1160, 1164 (9th Cir. 2005)). Even assuming the Officers had probable cause to arrest Brizuela, the record does not demonstrate that any exigent or emergency circumstances existed here: the Officers had not chased Brizuela to his home, nor was this a case of "hot pursuit." Id. at 744. The "knock and talk" exception for a warrantless search, which "permits law enforcement officers to encroach upon the curtilage of the home for the purpose of asking questions of the occupants," Lundin, 817 F.3d at 1158 (internal quotation marks omitted), also did not apply here. The exception only "is coterminous with [the] implicit license" to "approach the home and knock." Id. at 1158-59. Here, Brizuela did not consent to being questioned on his front porch and repeatedly asked the Officers to leave. Supreme Court precedent clearly establishes that, when law enforcement encroaches on the curtilage of a suspect's home without a warrant, it violates the Fourth Amendment's prohibition against unreasonable searches. See Jardines, 569 U.S. at 7. It is likewise clearly established that "[i]n terms that apply equally to seizures of property and to seizures of persons, the Fourth Amendment has drawn a firm line at the entrance to the house." Payton v. New York, 445 U.S. 573, 590 (1980). The Officers detained Brizuela on the curtilage of his home without a warrant or probable cause, and questioned him while he repeatedly asked them to leave. Thus, the district court did not err by denying qualified immunity to the Officers and granting summary judgment to the Plaintiffs on the Fourth Amendment unreasonable search and seizure claims. |

"I could get a warrant"... "Go ahead"
It should have ended there period, until such later time as he had a warrant in hand. The cop's swollen ego just could not let the man walk away. Plus, he probably knew he wouldn't get the warrant, or he would have already had it. He then overstepped very badly. The fact that the cop told him there was no warrant yet, told the guy all he needed to know that they were done there. Everything that happened next should be on every cop who was there. Sheriff maybe should have: 1. Immediately watched the BC footage, and understood that was a civil rights violation. 2. Fired that deputy. 3. Made a statement that such as that would not be tolerated. Instead, they maneuvered, enlisted the local paper, and tried to weasel it to put them in a good light. |

Quoted: Anyways, he apparently has some well known skeletons and should have just STFU. View Quote I'm not sure that's an option when the County Commission declares a public meeting to interrogate the Sheriff. What's he going to say, "I refuse to answer on the grounds that the truth will humiliate me"? His options include "we will need time to faithfully and carefully investigate these claims", and "we investigated ourselves and found nothing". The only surprising part is that he took option #2 and apparently nobody bothered to press him for a detailed explanation. |
