What’s happened is he’s been released from prison and has certain probation conditions that he had to conform to while out. He ignored them, violated his probation and will have to serve the balance of his sentence.

I live in The US as well, and not every cop is bad, actually most are decent, but that doesn't fit your moronic narrative though does it.

Well the key thing here was that he was complying with the police unlike Americans done while in possession of a firearm/weapon and sometimes on drugs

[@catbriggs8362]

I live in the U.S. Police where I live are great (Idaho)! They do community service, are friendly, even have programs in place that are now being copied across the U.S. to train officers in inclusiveness, minority issues, etc. When they're not "polite" is when someone breaks the law and flees the consequences.

I think he said they just didn’t want to have to go in the church and arrest him in front of a bunch of people, in part bc people in attendance might start yelling at the cops for disrupting the wedding

[@henrylee4374]

You used to have immunity from police in churches (like embassies) but think they stopped that a while ago

[@86SVA]

@Billy nolan lol

[@WolfbloodJakeWilliams]

They could've, it's just bad form. Not only because interrupting a wedding in progress ruins the day of a lot of innocent people, but also because traditionally no form of weapon should be taken into a church, and the police are carrying pepper spray, batons, and maybe tasers; the Vicar would be understandably upset about a dozen or so guys walking in armed.

[@thefiestaguy8831]

Absolutely, he’s been avoiding it for a year or more, he full well knew he was due in court, sometimes people can’t make it for genuine reasons, in which case you contact the court and they will help you if they can, and ask you to come back at a later date. He failed to turn up and didn’t notify them of any genuine reason for why, so it’s clear he’s just not interested in complying with the law. On this basis, why anyone has any sympathy for him is beyond me. Imagine you were the victim of one of his crimes, and you heard he’d been charged, and then due to attend court, then for 1 year he failed to turn up. Eventually you heard police turned up at his wedding, but as it was his wedding, they told him to come back to court, to which no surprise, he fails to turn up again… You might say - wait for him to get married… then you’d still have people complaining that they’ve arrested him on his wedding day, instead of waiting until the next day. He’s done wrong and he knows it, they have the opportunity to grab him when there isn’t a large crowd of people immediately present, and take it. Why a lot of travellers think they are immune from the law and should not be prosecuted is frankly disgusting and beyond me.
