Stop calling this mistaken identity, it isn’t, it’s gross negligence and incompetence. As long as there are no real consequences for this, it will never stop.
No, it's targeted erotic oppression. Absolute proof that no one has any kind of defacto-race card that exempts them from any degrading abuse by California law enforcement.
It can be and is all three of those things. If a cop attacks a person for their skin color and the media calls it assault are you going to say "It's not assault it's racism and a hate crime!"...stop being stupid.
Exactly
It literally is mistaken identity, as well it's also negligence and incompetence. What's the point in getting so emotional that you begin denying reality?
Did anyone check fingerprints or DNA?
Her grandmother died from a stroke induced by stress from her granddaughter getting wrongfully arrested. That is horrendous
Hopefully she'll be able to retire from the settlement.
😢 I bet that they were close.
She may have been killed in hospital April 2020, after the stroke.
@@EyreEver Can you imagine?
yep, sounds like a wrongful death charge too
Her grandma died because of stress. That is unforgivable!
Cops said the stroke wouldn't count. Same argument has been made for miscarriages from stress
@@kingg3095 Who cares what the cops say.... the court will decide if it's relevant to her suit.
Hmm what's crazy my great grandma had her belongings taken during pearl harbor and my relatives nuked. So please don't say the word unforgivable...until you really understand it.
Imagine how the people feel that have been behind bars for YEARS for the same thing? Utter madness.
Imagine how the people feel that are wrongly convicted and given a death sentence... (Hint it happens)
I'm with you on this how many people are in prison because it's kind of crap going on in this country
If something like this happened to me, I think I would dedicate my life to helping others. Hopefully she'll do more with the money she gets and tries to be a advocate for wrongful convictions.
This wasn’t just an oversight, this was pure negligence. How hard is it to check the validity of a drivers license?
Rise Warrior Cop...
¡Rize!
Agreed! They didn't even look alike! I could see her being detained at the airport then let go over the mix up, but 2 weeks?🤦🏻♀️ I'm sure the LAPD is understaffed but that is unacceptable!
There was a guy who was black, mistaken for an old white guy, and thrown in jail.
i would go out on a limb and say it is in fact not negligence, and that its just LEO being criminals. Every LEO involved should be charged with kidnapping and false imprisonment and perjury. Their job is very well described step by step for them in writing, and their behavior is definitely more criminal and dangerous then just plain negligence, on top of the fact their job does not allow for negligence or people will lose their lives. hold those in power accountable for their actions the same way they hold you accountable for yours.
You should know by now that you're guilty until proven innocent. Theres no rush to prove someone innocent.
She absolutely SHOULD sue them. This could have been handled on day one. No excuse and the people at LAPD who handled it should also be sued for their incompetence. Unbelievable.
billy-- and fired and insurance cancelled and pension denied.

She needs to sue TSA also. That’s where it started.
Good luck with that.
The TSA didn't cuff her or arrest her, they don't have that power. The TSA noticed the name match to the arrest alert and called the police. The police then proceeded to drop the ball.
@@darkwingduck9589they still should be held responsible and accountable for false identification and making a false report… any civilian would be held to that standard
Almost happened to me. US marshals showed up at my place while I was at work. My newlywed wife at the time was a little freaked out. Our apartment manager was shocked.
They called me shortly to tell me about it. I was pretty calm. Confused, but calm. I just asked what precinct issued the warrant and called them.
It turned out that the precinct was too lazy to add a middle initial. But they did ask some questions and verified my identity, canceling the visit to my workplace.
LAPD is way too busy not catching real criminals to deal with this.

Their criminals themselves so.
...do you not know that there is a criminal gang within the LAPD? They are the criminals, and have ran off all the good cops.
Reminds me of the time i got SWATTED by LAPD
Here we go again. Cops too lazy to investigate. In this case, a three second phone call would have cleared it up.
Even fingerprints would've cleared her. LAPD messed up big time! Then her grandmother passed away, it's so sad!
They are lazy and have low IQ’s.
Defund 👮 once again they get away with anything as long as they have the uniform on
They face zero consequences or oversight so they don’t care. The arresting officer should be suspended.
A 3 sec phone call or take a look at the snap shot of the real fugitive stupidity can't be fixed.
She needs to sue the TSA and the cops for many millions. She needs to create a lot of pain for this to never happen again.
If you never been to jail before. It's really depressing
Proof that you are treated as guilty, and must prove your innocence. Disgusting!!!
unless you have connections or cash. this is tragic. all they had to do was look at the photos of the two different woman, she should have been released an hour after she was booked at the jail. complete failure of the police department, even the tsa for that matter. her grandmothers death is even a part of this injustice. just inexcusable.

@@j.a.3138 im still laughing at what you wrote. it was meant to be a joke, right.....
Even lockup for 1 night can destroy a person's life. Two weeks? You lose your house, your job, your business, everything. She needs to definitely sue and win big.
1 night destroy a person entire life? Calm down snowflake
@davidkrappenschitz253 Hope it never happens to you cuz you are definitely not prepared.
@davidkrappenschitz253 1 day in and you can be fired from your job, and your landlord, in a lot of places, can use you being in jail AND not having a job as valid reasons to evict you. Just 1 day in jail and you have no job and no home. Of course the higher paid the job, the worse it is. You don't think the big guys talk?
@ryanthompson3737 There was a very long comment thread on my original comment that, recently, the channnel owner deleted all the replies. Then Mr Toilet man was the first to reply after all the other replies were deleted. The comment thread was very much like his reply; half the people saying you won't lose anything, the other half, like you and me, saying that 1 night in jail will ruin your life. I'm very sure of it. Seen it all the time. Ignorance used to be funny, but now that I'm approaching 6 decades on this earth, I just don't have any patience for ignorance that people like poopyhead spew on a regular basis. They'll never learn until it happens to them.
@davidkrappenschitz253 Wow, you're immature. Extremely. Last comment thread that erupted here consisted of replies just like yours (before the channel owner deleted them for their complete ignorance, like yours) where a guy bragged that he had 3 accounts with $20,000 each in them. I showed him that his $60,000 would he gone in a month to a thieving lawyer to protect himself from a corrupt injustice system.
*Two weeks in jail AND YOU'VE LOST EVERYTHING YOU'VE EVER WORKED FOR.*
I suppose it's OK for you to call yourself a messy diarrhea, but when someone else does, they're "calling you names." Why do you even comment, unless you're a professional troll?
The most messed up part is how happy the LAPD was to have her in custody without even checking once. Acting like they are on orange is the new black. That entire department needs to be fired and replaced.
lol
California is a liberal hell hole.
Wow and her grandma died from stress. Unforgivable. Hope she gets/got millions.
"We investigated ourselves and found we did nothing wrong." Every cop ever.
International special forces required no more mistakes
@marcd what rock are living under ?
This right here shows you the responsibility of police you are looking for & it's happening all over the country !!!!!
As a True Crime Addict for over 25 years, I can tell you that the average police detective and prosecutor in America Do NOT Give A Damn whether the person who they are putting into prison is actually innocent or guilty of the crime in question. ALL They Care About Is Getting Convictions, and Conviction Rates. And if an innocent person does get put into prison then, well, that's just The Cost of "Doing Business" !!! Right ??? What I hate is when people like this gal Punk Out and accept a settlement. There Is NO Way that I'd accept ANY Settlement here !!! I'd Want ALL of this Police BS to smeared across a courtroom for the Whole World to see !!!
@marcd we the black community beg to differ.
@marcd Yea right lol
That the LAPD couldn't even noticed that the date of birth was different screams negligence and incompetence. This was beyond ridiculous and must qualify as criminal negligence.
I think that's what you calla masochist
These cops are crooked. I’m in rancho Cordova and this police department is plain corrupt.
The idea of "criminal negligence" means nothing to a goddam cop.
Welcome to America
I'd say we are talking about criminal negligence with malicious intent.
Our legal system is completely incompetent *and most people don't realize it until they experience it for themselves.*
Wrongful arrest and vicariously responsible for the death of her grandmother.
I hope she sues and wins a multi-million dollar lawsuit against an incompetent police force.
Talk about incompetent... TSA and Police officers didn't have time to check on ID thoroughly, just shows how much these hamburger eaters care what they actually doing with people's lives (some of them)
No. That multi million comes from the TAXPAYERS not the police department.
@@As130thps these settlements should come out of their retirement funds. They'd be a lot more careful.
@@As130thps maybe the department will appropriate the funding that is left over from paying her out a little more carefully and hire people that actually know what they're doing.
It sounds to me like basically anyone with the same name that comes up as a hit in the system is at risk of arrest.
That means, if there's an arrest warrant out for a John Smith, Juan Gonzalez that anyone else with that same common name is at risk of arrest during a routine traffic stop or traveling through customs. This is absurd and everyone involved who missed this should be immediately terminated.
Because of their negligence, a person, for no reason of their own lost her grandmother and 2 weeks of her life! In this day and age, this should NEVER happen.
When it got to the bit about her grandmother, all I could say was "fvck"... I don't hate law enforcement but when I hear stories like this, my blood boils. And you never know if you're going to be next. It's terrifying.
WTF. I would sue the LAPD and ask the officers to give them there badges to her directly.
LAPD needs to hire competent people. With all the technology at their hands and still do things wrong. Makes the competent cops look like fools.
@@jackhammer078jack4 I was born and raised less than 2 hours to the north from LA. Still live here, on my way out of CA. I can confidently say there isn't a chance they'll hire a completely competent force. Not with the mayor they have. There are really amazing officers on the force down there but the lefties are making their quota of punks that skew the intelligence scale. (I'm neither on the right nor the left. I'm independent) I'm 32 and a millennial but as such, I can also say that hiring millennials with very little life experience is what's causing the biggest problem. They encounter things they've never seen or heard of before and act in a reactionary manner instead of having experience to draw from. It makes them very dangerous. Unfortunately, this is a problem the entire country has. Contrary to popular belief, there are still "good ol' boys" amongst the millenial population. I'd consider myself one of them despite the fact that I'm a woman. We are few and far between but the older millennials who paid attention and appreciated history in a wide array of forms are usually the ones who have their heads squarely on their shoulders. Unfortunately, we have the curse of spotting those who don't and it's disconcerting knowing our peers are so detached from reality. Especially when they're on the police force. I grew up around the elderly and older population and I had the great fortune of drawing from their experiences and learning from it. Others of my generation weren't as fortunate and it's not really their fault but their environment and/or family unit dynamics. Not all had parents who cared if they gleaned knowledge of those who came before them. I grew up watching TV Land, listening to Karen Carpenter, and making my own toys out of sticks and pieces of string in the great outdoors and trying to dig to china and it was magical. (My grandma's only request was that I fill in the hole when I was done. Haha) Many of my generation didn't have these experiences and it stunted them. Occupying yourself with only what's available to you can do much more than keep you from being bored. (If I ever said I was bored to anyone in my family, I'd find myself chopping weeds on the farm or out back so I never dared say I was bored) It teaches you reasoning skills. Skills that might have made me ask to see the picture of the woman the TSA arrested compared to the picture of the person for which the warrant was issued. If those didn't match up, I would have asked to look at the birthdates. This is so simple yet, it was missed. Could me digging a hole to China in my youth have prevented this woman from being falsely imprisoned? I have absolutely no idea. All I can say is that there are many youth how have been deprived of real life experience and it doesn't do them or anyone they encounter any favors. I sat down and taught myself guitar starting at 8 because I was taught to be self disciplined and if I asked to do something, I had to promise to stick with it because we didn't have the money for me to jump hobbies every 3 months. Self discipline is lacking in my generation and entitlement is at it's all time high and there are far too few people willing to hold people accountable who abuse their positions of power. I grieve for the next generations because the people who are meant to teach them are already lost. I can't get to all but I realize it's my responsibility to reach those I can which is why I've spent half my life in youth ministry. I had amazing mentors who in turn taught me to mentor by example and I'm doing the best I can. I feel I fall short quite often but all I can do is try. One of my kids graduated high school with the ambition of going into law enforcement and I couldn't be more proud. He's a wonderful boy who's turned into a wonderful man and he's engaged to be married. I've gotten to see him thrive and be a true gentleman and it's been a great privilege. All we can so is share what we can, do our best, pass on what we can, and be patient. If we do all that right, we might just see balance in the next generation. As for the police force, all we can do is pray.
@@TheRisskee I was born and raised in the generation you described and experienced the richness of mentors- in my immediate family, church, school and community. The word ‘bored’ was not allowed in any of these spheres- you were given something to do and had to see the task to its completion. Life in the Caribbean allowed for us to be schooled in critical thinking. Respecting people and practicing good manners was the norm. You weren’t allowed to whine and be rescued from situations with instant solutions. Delayed gratification allowed us to build muscle and gain strength for productive lives and future problem solving. You’re correct- all we can do is to be good mentors to this generation. We’re tasked with the same responsibilities of our long gone mentors. With God’s grace and with courage, may we not fail them.
Malicious intent, not negligence.
Justice would be to sue the police union rather than lapd
One of the most traumatic and dangerous things any law-abiding citizen could ever experience.

False imprisonment is the most terrifying thing for a person that's free. If you haven't been falsely imprisoned or kidnapped, its hard to fathom how bad it feels.
Well, Id be terrified if I was kidnapped...........I would have ZERO fear if I was falsely arrested as all your basic needs will be taken care, you wont be attacked (at least not by your captors)....and DNA, Fingerprints and CCTV will almost certainley set you free........ALIVE.

My dad was arrested after a long day of work at a pioneer chicken restaurant when he was younger. They literally plucked him off the street of la when he was heading home and was accused of murdering someone. He was only in jail for a month though once they figured it was the wrong Miguel Ángel Perez. The first kid(my big bro) was existing his first months of life which caused stress on top of the fear of deportation, so upon release he hightailed it outta there...wish the pioneer chicken was around-never got to try it

Both the TSA and LAPD misidentified a suspect requires a huge amount of incompetence. How they didn't check birthday, Driver's License, SSN is beyond logic.
I put the blame more on TSA and the department in Texas that issued the warrant (ONLY if they DIDN'T include the processing photo for TSA) because TSA security should have access to photos of people that have warrants out and would've just been a minor inconvenience for her. The LAPD however I don't hold to much fault in the beginning because when a warrant is issued and carried out for arrest the local department arrest and carries out the booking and processing. Now the processing system taking over 2 weeks to realize a mistake is unacceptable and this is a repercussion of California is going to hell in a handbasket with crime currently. stuff like this happening to normal citizens doesnt surprise me at all.
@@Mysterio1412 > The LAPD however I don't hold to much fault in the beginning because when a warrant is issued and carried out for arrest the local department arrest and carries out the booking and processing.
They are required to verify who you are. Just the name is never ever enough. Do you know how many John Smiths there are in the USA? Over 25,000 of them. Do you really think this happens to every John Smith, just because one or two of them have warrants? Of course not. The moment they finger-printed her, the prints would not match.
This whole thing doesn't pass the smell test...
@@Mysterio1412 Uh...the LAPD doesn't represent the state of California, Dude, any more than the TSA agents working at LAX represent the state of California.
I was told by a TSA agent he couldn’t accept my ID...I am an inspector for FAA. TSA - thousands standing around.
Or fingerprints
Best part is when judge doesn’t have enough time to look over your case so they reschedule it out another month. That’s an extra month in jail because of over crowding and over scheduling i
I’m astounded that her lawyer didn’t immediately ask for DOB, photo, etc. so he could get his client out of jail - why did they need an identity trial? We’re they refusing to listen to him as well?
She would’ve been free to go in literally 10 minutes if they would’ve just did their jobs to check who she was/how she was a different person with the same name. They deserve to be sued 100%
yep and guess who pays for their mistakes! us! the american tax payer...yaaay qualified immunity!
Uh, yeah, fingerprints???
This is pure hubris. They're always right and she had to be lying. Just disgusting.
@Pol Pot 2024 this is good too
Too think she’d have been on a beach in Mexico if these out of control, $18 an hour Jack booted TSA thugs did a check for 30 seconds
This happens a lot. Cops can get away with horrifying levels of negligence and malfeasance due to qualified immunity.
No personal liability in their actions. Qualified immunity needs to go away and they need to be held civilly liable. The taxpayers shouldn’t be footing the bill for negligent policing.
Exactly!

The Constitution isn't a living document that's subject to being changed by the government in order for them to violate the God given rights of all people's.

People are killed when police raid the wrong address, failing to verify the information. And there are NEVER consequences or changes to “policy.” Changes are long overdue. Nothing but negligence and, often, indiscriminate, general malice. She should get a million dollars and several individuals should also be fired, including the Chief.
So true. Thank god she didn't come to harm in prison. Must have been terrifying.
I agree with what your saying but you cant just discriminate and should include every single person even including non whites because the white culture has never seen them as human. WHAT ABOUT WHEN THEY WRONGFULY KILL BLACKS AND MEXICANS? WHAT ABOUT WHEN THEY WRONGFULY SEND "MINORITIES" TO PRISON OVER FALSE ACCUSATIONS AND NEVER RECOMPOMPENSATE THEM AFTERWORDS?
I agree with EVERYTHING you said @David Orange..I feel anyone arrested by mistake needs to be paid for that mistake and I mean at least the very least a million dollars! You put a person through this kind of turmoil and they deserve to be paid back for having to deal with it! I no longer feel sadness for when I hear about a cop being hurt in the line of duty..look how mnay cops raid wrong house and kill the wrong person!! Nobody feels bad for the victims then but heaven forbid if a cop gets hurt oh no they lose their crap! Any life is valuable! A cops life is worth NO MORE than anyone's life! Heck I value my cat's life more than the cop that arrested this lady in the video!
Money or firing is not justice prison time for cops including the chief of police is a start.
I agree. When people are killed by raiding the wrong address, that is just stupidity period. Those “officers” who kill innocent people should be in prison for murder. But this should not be happening in the first place. Innocent people who died should still be alive.

Precisely. Yet we have half a nation that somehow disagrees on how police abuse their power. I mean after all, she'll be suing LAPD, and then they cough up tax money, but then no one's actually going to get fired
LAPD has a terrible history longer than a CVS receipt.
Still blows my mind people wanna stay in Southern Cali.
That’s why we should be able to resist these ppl when they are WRONG!! Why do we have to go along with stupidity??
This will be happening a lot more as we leap into fascism! Wheeeeeeeee
The fact that this woman even lost her grandmother all because of the LAPD's negligence i really hope she gets everything she sues them for.

I’m 2022 there are two things people need to realize to better society. Police are idiots and corrupt. There are no good apples, the entire system is corrupt. Two: Democrat policies fail constantly and hurt citizens. If you don’t know either of these then you are probably dumb or brainwashed.

Poor woman.
Cops should have run her DL# and check her fingerprints to verify the warrant.
I WAS married to a cop. They become so self righteous. They don't ever believe they can be wrong, and when they are shown to be wrong, they cover up their mistakes and will never admit them. When they make mistakes though, they ruin someone else's life most of the time.
Have you watched the channel Audit the Audir?
This is quite true.
My uncle was a cop he always thought he was better than everyone but his wife was having sex with his boss that’s what my grandma told me
It’s because their brainwashed just like military people they’re all the same. They think they are better than the “civilian”
Sounds like he's going to make captain.
I’m amazed that they held someone for two weeks when they let actual criminals out within hours with undeniable proof of their crimes not even requiring bail
It's clear you don't understand the Democrapic judical system. Its all about $. They believed she had the $ to fight this. So they kept her looked up, to rack up the $.
They release the trash back on the streets to cause more problems. Because they know the state will end up footing the bill for the trash.

I had a similar situation where
I was wrongfully arrested and held in jail without seeing a judge for 7 days, which is EXTREMELY illegal.
Luckily, I was able to afford a good attorney, sued the county jail, and won..
The money helped, but definitely didn't make up for that 7 days of hell I spent incarcerated.
Trust me, if the police think that you're a criminal, they automatically treat you like a piece of garbage...and will not listen to one word you have to say. Especially if you're trying to tell them that you aren't guilty...
How much did they pay for your one week ordeal?

Yeah, but how didn't they see she was a pretty white girl?
This is actually not the first time the LAPD has done this to someone. I had a friend years ago who was wrongfully arrested for the same issue. She was coming home from work one evening and part of her neighborhood was blocked off due to a police search for some fugitives. She was just trying to get to her apartment so she could go to bed and when she was stopped by a checkpoint the cops arrested her because she apparently “matched” the description of one of the suspects they were after in the area even though her vehicle was not a match and she was pulling into her own parking lot after a long day at work. She was jailed for three days and it took two years for the courts to clear her of any wrong doing and not one of the officers involved were ever punished for their actions. They even laughed at her while they were booking her and refused to tell her why she was being arrested. The LAPD is a joke.
two years. Ben Franklin once said, "Justice delayed is justice denied."
That sounds like Texas but at least they let L.A. people out of jail...they hold you for 5 or 6 YEARS in Texas.
Law enforcement need to be held accountable, just like everyone else.
They often aren’t
TOO OFTEN aren't... 😡😡😡😡
the only time corrupt and inept cops are held accountable for anything is when their stupid faces are pasted all over the news, around the clock. and even then it doesn't always happen.
WON'T HAPPEN
@@renfax3549 Exactly. She will get a large settlement from the City and no idiot cops will be held accountable.
Terrifying.

Not everybody in jail is innocent... use your brain.
then how can she just assume that each and every person there is a violent criminal if she allegedly is not criminal herself? use your brain.@@malbers35
As a former LEO I ran into this situation twice. The first time the ages between the two were drastically different and the other one the height, eye and hair color were way off. I refused to arrest someone on a warrant without an undeniable match. This is just unacceptable behavior of police who lack critical thinking skills and who are willing to violate the civil rights of the people they swore to protect.

She should sue them and I hope she gets a large sum of money from it. I'm rooting for her!
I mean, if they (TSA included) didn't do something as simple as checking her DOB and comparing it to the real suspect in question that's just plain stupidity. Same thing with the mug shot of the real wanted person to her. Failing to not do something as simple as that is just down right dumb. She gonna get her lawsuit money for sure.
TSA first off has no authority to arrest anyone! This was all LAPD. TSA may have held her till officers arrived but that's the extent of TSA.
Maybe put the police in jail.
Total incompetent. Every basic procedure, logic, common sense, and decency were disregarded. I understand, if they put her behind bars for a COUPLE HOURS, while some officer's doing some checking. But 2 weeks? Total incompetence and disregard for her physical safety and mental health.

Proves the total ignorance of people in our country. How many different policing people were involved here? 50? 100? TSA, coppers, jailers, the court . Hell yes SUE! America.....behold our justice system!
Hope she gets a lot of money for their incompetence and for endangering this woman.
Mistakes can happen, especially when two people have the same name. However, arresting her and letting her go after a couple hours would be a mistake I could understand. Arresting her and keeping her in jail for weeks while multiple people keep telling you that you have the wrong person isn't a mistake. That's straight up incompetence.
Name, Birthday, SSN, Place of Birth... you should not be locked up for having the same name. They didn't do a solid job to verify period. Mistake should not happen when tracking down a fugitive.
I'm sure they caught their mistake within hours, the rest of the time was to buy themselves time to cover up their mistake
Isnt it normal.. cops not doing anything
You can verify Simeon’s identity in 15 mins. Cell phone, couple of phone calls, ever heard of call a friend ? This is gross incompetence. They should have this resolved in less than an hour. Of course it’s possible for someone to have the same name..
Qualify immunity, look it up. It isn't a matter of training or smarts. It's just a lack of caring. Qualify immunity makes it where legal officers can't get ding for almost anything.
This is in the land of the free btw. The same land that has civil forfeiture (CF) and implement domain (ID). CF lets cops literally steal anything from you legally if they THINK it COULD HAVE BEEN used in a crime at some point. It's impossible to prove or disprove what they think, and this heavily has been used. What happens is the local station gets a massive kickback when the stuff is sold off. This is to include stealing someone's house, car, clothes, or raw money. ID is what lets the gov steal your home if they think the land it is on could be better use for whatever. They don't really even need to prove it, or make it that way. There is a crap ton of cases where ID is used, the house is dealt with, and for 10+ years it's an empty lot.
Isn't this what fingerprints are for? This isn't what taxpayer money is for! Law enforcement's incompetence is exponential...SMH...
Fingerprints are *Junk Science*

Two weeks in jail and ruin your life. She could have lost her job over this , leading to losing everything. Her grandmother died because of this. They owe her big

The fact that her grandma died over this should be enough for them to have to pay BIG. That’s absolutely horrible. I feel so bad for her for what she went through personally, for her family’s loss, and that now she’ll never see her grandma again on Earth. 😢
Imagine you get wrongly thrown into jail, and when u come out happy that its over you get told that ur granny has passed because of stress.
Absolutely terrible.
imagine her trama alone
It would be hard to prove that the stress was what caused the stroke. My thought is that the gma was already due for the stroke. It just so happened that it occurred while she was jailed. You can't just get a stroke from momentary stress, this occurs over prolonged stress time periods.
@@RedNuii Well I don't think she needs her gma to win the case, but surely it will guarantee her pay check in court.
unfortunately they will never be able to prove the grandmother's death was related to this. That being said, she has plenty of grounds for settlement with just the facts of her arrest.
Everyone involved should be fired and brought up on charges. And yes this woman should be rewarded a substantial amount of money. This is completely unacceptable in a free society.

TSA arrested her with no authority and gave custody to local police. She has to sue both of them. Federal and State will pay a big price. I hope she doesn’t go only for money, she better go chase does pensions.
What a horrible way to lose a grandmother.
TSA is negligent time and time again when it comes to this... last time I flew, I was in tears because of a simple oversight that almost made me miss my flight. Sucks the industry is so callous and negligent, so say the least.
All they had to do was check to make sure she was the right person. They weren’t doing their job. I hope she wins this case but also laws need to be in place to make sure police double and even triple check everything to make sure they have the right person or this can happen again. Her life was disrupted. People could lose their jobs, their place of living, animals if they have them, children if they have them, being locked up for two weeks. What if she had no friends or other family to call and she had children to take care of or a pet to feed….this could have been so much worse…it’s bad enough she lost her grandmother because of the stress.

Eventually even without family and friends support your lawyer will get you out of jail. But it will almost certainly take longer. Mistaken arrest are common enough. Every department of any size has them now and then. Usually they are handled quickly (within a few days if you are really unlucky and get locked up late on Friday, but even though being in jail over the weekend if a lawsuit waiting to happen, regardless if they lack personnel) usually your out in well under 24 hours. Ideally much sooner if it happens early enough and there are enough hours in the day to get people to run things before they go home. Being locked up for 13 days is a crazy amount of time and almost unheard of.

@@bobdigital21jailing innocent and taking time from people lives is down right wrong, no excuses for it all. If there is hiccups every once in a while then the system needs to go away.
@@VinnigsSpinTheBlock Well, not to be rude.... but if we are to live in reality we must allow for accidents to happen on occasion. Particularly with big systems. For instance, right now there are innocent people convicted in jail. FACT. How do we stop innocent people from getting convicted? We make the standard for guilt so high that crime for all practical purposes becomes legal. That is is only way to make it so we don't put innocent people in prison, let alone jail. How does that serve the people or justice? It would be mass anarchy. Obviously we want justice, but is it justice for me to have no recourse against criminals but that which i am able to take for myself because the system's hands are so tied? Is it just to let serial rapist go free time and again because we demand such high standards for conviction?
Clearly there is some sort of balance here we have to reach, and no one knows where that is for sure. We need a system that will punish crime consistently enough to make people feel like justice will be done, but also one that doesn't unfairly prosecute or jail the innocent. We need oversight and systems in place, IE bureaucracy so that everyone gets treated the same way, but we also need things to move quickly. Which checks and balances comes delays. With overview comes delays. But we obviously can't not have overview.
You say there is no excuse for an innocent man with a flimsy case to be in jail for 7 months, and that is absolutely true, that is why he was able to sue successfully. Police are just people, and not particularly bright people. They mostly fall within the mean. The difference is when police make mistakes it can ruin people, but they are as likely to mess up a document at work as you or me. As for changing the system, I agree some changes would be welcome, but doing away with it entirely is not a solution.
