One more reason not to parade these people on the internet just based on a police accusation. These things don’t go away they will haunt the suspect for many years to come. I was arrested on false pretenses by way of a bogus warrant and it was just an effort by Arcata Police Department to generate funds with the help of officer Kevin Stonebarger (what an idiot!). Do a couple Google searches and you’ll see what they were up to. They tore my house apart and found nothing so they took my bank cards and arrested me on a cultivation charge. They held me in the county jail until after business hours and by the time I went to the bank when they open in the morning my funds were all frozen, $12,000 of legitimate funds originally deposited from an insurance settlement. They can’t keep the money unless there is a crime and they offered to drop the charge to misdemeanor possession so they could keep the money. I declined and then they offered to do the same thing but only keep half the money. I declined again and informed them that I would go to trial and I would appeal if I lost and I would never let them steal the money. Then they dropped it. For whatever reason I didn’t end up on the Lost Coast Outpost at that time and I’m grateful for that, it only empowers the police, to put their suspects online without anything more than an accusation.

The politicians can lie out both sides of their face at the same time and they have no consequences. Often under oath Biden just blatantly lied about his achievments. So who cares ??

I think your President, ol Whitehood Wilson reincarnated with the prop lookalike Ethel, who likes comparing Mexicans to Tacos, tops the list of all lists of liars, creeps, and generally bottom feeding mud sucking shellfish. Another hash mark on the racist pole – Mexicans equal tacos, my god. I know you guys are all eating major crow right now so just admit it and move on. BTW, only idiots don’t plead the fifth in political prosecutions instigated by hostile scum democrat lawyer creep prosecutors. They are lowlifes out for a head. I would tell them to eat dung. Nice try though.

It’s nearly universally accepted fact that: I know you are but what am I? Case law shows that it is to infinity, with no take backs. This was decided back in 1985 in Jomama V. D’nasti Mall Food Court.

Yep. Now yur gettin the picture. Its more common than air its what happens when everybody gets to determine whats right for themselves. When one thinks lying is ok everybody suffers. Rape ? Child molest ? Thats why we need a standard of morals for all the ten commandments pretty much covers it

Is Sarah Sue Hopper the name of a real local person, an acquaintance of the suspect perhaps, or just randomly made up? Low down trick if so but I’ve read a case where the suspect used their sister’s name

If that’s the case, I would literally pay for a seat at the dinner table this Thanksgiving.

Does that apply to immigrants that use other people’s social security numbers?
