COURT DOCUMENTS & AUDIO of winning case – no law requires a “photo” i.d. Further, a written citation is a form of identification. INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY!: http://www.myspace.com/sarajfight4freedom
Around 2:00pm Friday, August 7, 2009, my boyfriend (black male) and I were arrested because of supposed identification issues. My boyfriend and I had taken our previous cases to court in June and won. At the same time through a two day trial, I caught the cop (racist cops in AZ. Please do research on Sheriff Joe Arpaio.) doing perjury on the stand (assisted by the Prosecuting Attorney’s Office). And since I filed charges against that cop and I have a hearing this Tuesday for the perjury charges against him, my boyfriend and I have been harassed and pulled-over three times.
The cops supposedly arrested my boyfriend with supposed resisting arrest and disorderly conduct. When in fact, my boyfriend never resisted arrested and it was the cops who were in disorderly conduct since the time before they pulled me over (undercover cop admit following us for at least a mile before the initial two cop cars finally pulled us over ’cause according to them, it was my auto plate in the back of my car window the reason they pulled me over – not against state vehicle codes). And the reasons they harassed my boyfriend (racial profiling) was simply because he did not show them his identification – he was the passenger. Neither my boyfriend nor I were committing, or about to commit, any crimes. And therefore, the cops had no rights or jurisdiction to demand for his identification. My boyfriend was within his legal rights to refuse.
Further, while we were in the transportation vehicle to go to jail, my boyfriend explained that they supposedly found 3 warrants for his arrest. However, the only thing that matched on those warrants was his date of birth – not the first nor last name matched my boyfriend’s name. In addition, the state the cops claimed where my boyfriend had these supposed warrants; he never even visited that state.
I was finally released today on OR but they still have my boyfriend in jail and I’m very concerned for his well-being; he has seizures caused by lack of sleep.
My boyfriends’ mother just explained to me that my boyfriend called her stating he did not get OR (he does not have any priors and he’s employed) and that she posted bail already earlier this morning.
While I was in jail, I did not nor could not sleep. They placed 28 women in a holding cell in the size of a living room; it was very cold, women were cuddling with one another to stay warm, and even using toilet paper as blankets and on the cement floor for warmth – because the guards refused blankets. In addition, they mixed the drug attics, mentally ill, homeless people who may have illnesses, people with criminal history, and people with no criminal history, together. There was also a frail old women at least 70 years of age who claimed that two deputies threw her face down to the ground then kicked her – all because she explained that couldn’t be exposed by the sun because of her seizures and medications. She had a big swollen whelp on her left cheek and above her eye. She was in the holding cell for at least 3 minutes till she finally fainted and hit her head on the toilet seat. It took approximately 10 or minutes before the deputies finally arrived to help her. I finally saw this frail old lady in court today. She had a sling on her arm.
While that is horrible, the men had bad, too! Their rooms were smaller and they were more packed in their holding sells. And I know my boyfriend could not sleep – it was so crowded, most men were sitting – there was no room to lay down. [Reminder: no beds in holding cells.] [ Our meals were only twice a day and we received the exact same meal every day - bread, peanut butter, donut, cookie, orange, and juice - all in a plastic bag. All sugar and not a balanced meal, whatsoever].
The cops also towed my car, confiscated my laptop, camera, cell phone, driver’s license, auto insurance, and auto registration. They also confiscated my boyfriend’s cell phone, over $200.00, etc. Further, they stated that they will not release my car for 30 days . And they withheld our property until we went to their impound. My cell phone, driver’s license, and car has yet been returned!
All against the United States Constitution: Amendment 4 – Search and Seizure.
Currently, I will be going to court first thing Monday morning to subpoena my personal belongings. In addition, I have hearings on August 11, 18, 19, 26. and 28th – all based on the cops harassments. If anyone knows of an attorney who may be willing to help with a 1983 act for my boyfriend and myself, it will be highly appreciated!
Thank you,
