[@SASDPNV]

Why? He did his job and didn't let his feeling get in the way. That was not a trial and it was just a probable cause hearing. The only purpose that judge served was to determine if there was probable cause for the charges to proceed to a trail. Whether you like it or not, there was probable cause to substantiate the charges. even if the contact and tactics was garbage on the police end, the guy still assaulted two police officers. According to the Arizona Revised Statutes, he did commit a crime and he acted with intent. He knew that the victims of his assault were in fact police officers making it a Felony. He was charged with aggravated assault, because that is what he did. You fight cases in court, not out on the street. He is just as much to blame as the police, Plain and simple.

For the purpose of Section 242, acts under "color of law" include acts not only done by federal, state, or local officials within their lawful authority, but also acts done beyond the bounds of that official's lawful authority, if the acts are done while the official is purporting to or pretending to act in the performance of his/her official duties. Persons acting under color of law within the meaning of this statute include police officers, prisons guards and other law enforcement officials, as well as judges, care providers in public health facilities, and others who are acting as public officials. It is not necessary that the crime be motivated by animus toward the race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status or national origin of the victim. The offense is punishable by a range of imprisonment up to a life term, or the death penalty, depending upon the circumstances of the crime, and the resulting injury, if any. TITLE 18, U.S.C., SECTION 242 - Deprivation of Rights Whoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States, ... shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if bodily injury results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include the use, attempted use, or threatened use of a dangerous weapon, explosives, or fire, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, shall be fined under this title, or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death. Title 42, U.S.C., Section 14141 - Pattern and Practice This civil statute was a provision within the Crime Control Act of 1994 and makes it unlawful for any governmental authority, or agent thereof, or any person acting on behalf of a governmental authority, to engage in a pattern or practice of conduct by law enforcement officers or by officials or employees of any governmental agency with responsibility for the administration of juvenile justice or the incarceration of juveniles that deprives persons of rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States. Whenever the Attorney General has reasonable cause to believe that a violation has occurred, the Attorney General, for or in the name of the United States, may in a civil action obtain appropriate equitable and declaratory relief to eliminate the pattern or practice. Types of misconduct covered include, among other things: Excessive Force Discriminatory Harassment False Arrest Coercive Sexual Conduct Unlawful Stops, Searches, or Arrests Title 18, U.S.C., Section 241 - Conspiracy Against Rights This statute makes it unlawful for two or more persons to conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person of any state, territory or district in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him/her by the Constitution or the laws of the United States, (or because of his/her having exercised the same). It further makes it unlawful for two or more persons to go in disguise on the highway or on the premises of another with the intent to prevent or hinder his/her free exercise or enjoyment of any rights so secured. Punishment varies from a fine or imprisonment of up to ten years, or both; and if death results, or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for any term of years, or for life, or may be sentenced to death.

LEARN HOW TO STOP THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS FOR ANY CASE! Fraudulent concealment is a common law doctrine that may be invoked to toll a statute of limitations. Under this doctrine, if a defendant has concealed his misconduct, the limitations period shall start when the plaintiff discovers his claim or should have discovered it with due diligence.[1] It is similar to the equitable estoppel doctrine.[2] The United States Supreme Court adopted the fraudulent concealment doctrine as a federal common law matter in the 1874 case Bailey v. Glover. The Supreme Court stated that the law recognizes that people who commit fraud should not benefit from their conduct. When a defendant engages in fraudulent concealment, the statute of limitations is tolled. Fraudulent concealment occurs when one party intentionally hides or suppresses a material fact that they are legally obligated to disclose with the intent to deceive another party. Here are the key elements required to establish a case of fraudulent concealment: 1. Concealment of a Material Fact: The defendant must have concealed or suppressed a material fact. 2. Duty to Disclose: The defendant must have been obliged to disclose the fact to the plaintiff. 3. Intent to Defraud: The defendant must have intentionally concealed or suppressed the facts to defraud the plaintiff. 4. Reliance: The plaintiff must have relied on the absence of the concealed fact. 5. Damages: The plaintiff must have suffered damages as a result of the concealment.

And the man who falsely accused the deaf man of assault which led police to believe the deaf man was capable of physical violence as well. What about him, should he just be let off? While certainly tragic for the deaf man, people seem not to consider that these police officers were led to believe the deaf man had literally just committed an act of violence and had no way of knowing of his deafness until after the event was concluded and the man was detained and questioned. They also had little to no time to approach the deaf man, or ask witnesses to clarify once the accusation had been made. Time is not on an officers side in most cases. I also have to wonder when it became normal behavior to fight police officers, even when innocent. It's much easier to just comply and let them conduct their investigations. The man was DEAF, not Blind. Most normal people I know who are innocent of a crime don't instinctively go into fight mode when approached by people in police cars and wearing police uniforms. I HAVE BEEN WRONGFULLY ACCUSED MYSELF AND DETAINED. I did not resist, I did not try to run, I did not try to ask why, I just let them take me into custody because I knew I had done nothing wrong. It is literally the job police officers are paid to do. Resist, even if innocent and police will use whatever means necessary to ensure you are cuffed and unable to harm them or others around you before they ask questions. Without police, who do sometimes make mistakes, I guarantee the criminals won't try and take you alive. They will just smoke you and take your stuff.

@@Mikethebusguy Have a nice day in Jesus' Name... 👇👇😊😊 Deprivation Of Rights Under Color Of Law Summary: Section 242 of Title 18 makes it a crime for a person acting under color of any law to willfully deprive a person of a right or privilege protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States. For the purpose of Section 242, acts under "color of law" include acts not only done by federal, state, or local officials within their lawful authority, but also acts done beyond the bounds of that official's lawful authority, if the acts are done while the official is purporting to or pretending to act in the performance of his/her official duties. Persons acting under color of law within the meaning of this statute include police officers, prisons guards and other law enforcement officials, as well as judges, care providers in public health facilities, and others who are acting as public officials. It is not necessary that the crime be motivated by animus toward the race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status or national origin of the victim. The offense is punishable by a range of imprisonment up to a life term, or the death penalty, depending upon the circumstances of the crime, and the resulting injury, if any. TITLE 18, U.S.C., SECTION 242 - Deprivation of Rights Whoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States, ... shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if bodily injury results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include the use, attempted use, or threatened use of a dangerous weapon, explosives, or fire, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, shall be fined under this title, or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death. Title 42, U.S.C., Section 14141 - Pattern and Practice This civil statute was a provision within the Crime Control Act of 1994 and makes it unlawful for any governmental authority, or agent thereof, or any person acting on behalf of a governmental authority, to engage in a pattern or practice of conduct by law enforcement officers or by officials or employees of any governmental agency with responsibility for the administration of juvenile justice or the incarceration of juveniles that deprives persons of rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States. Whenever the Attorney General has reasonable cause to believe that a violation has occurred, the Attorney General, for or in the name of the United States, may in a civil action obtain appropriate equitable and declaratory relief to eliminate the pattern or practice. Types of misconduct covered include, among other things: Excessive Force Discriminatory Harassment False Arrest Coercive Sexual Conduct Unlawful Stops, Searches, or Arrests Title 18, U.S.C., Section 241 - Conspiracy Against Rights This statute makes it unlawful for two or more persons to conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person of any state, territory or district in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him/her by the Constitution or the laws of the United States, (or because of his/her having exercised the same). It further makes it unlawful for two or more persons to go in disguise on the highway or on the premises of another with the intent to prevent or hinder his/her free exercise or enjoyment of any rights so secured. Punishment varies from a fine or imprisonment of up to ten years, or both; and if death results, or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for any term of years, or for life, or may be sentenced to death.
