They continue to persue this knowing the failure to inform is going to loose and the other charge is so they might have a chance of finding him guilty of something....a moving violation that is on par with a loud radio..

If they win the moving violation they will call it all a win. Its how flawed retro logic based they are.

No mistake here, they are financially punishing him for fighting this and exposing the corrupt egomaniac cop in their employ.. That is all and that is clear.

I have a question for the lawyers here. Can his lawyer bring up that the prosecutor offered to drop the charges in exchange for signing an agreement not to sue?

No, not unless he can show prosecutorial misconduct and tie that into it.

I guess extortion isn't "prosecutorial misconduct".

When somebody tells a rape victim, "Don't sue my cousin who raped you and I won't kill you.", people tend to see that as a crime.

When the prosecutor tells the victim of a false arrest and terroristic threats, "Don't sue the cop who falsely arrested you and I won't falsely prosecute you.", somehow that's just "representing the people of Canton"...

I thought you'd all find this interesting. In a recent ruling on the motions to dismiss and suppress evidence the judge wrote the following:

"As noted by defense counsel at the evidentiary hearing, the video evidence contradicts the allegations of the complaint that Mr. Bartlett's weapon was not discovered until a pat down of his person was conducted. The video shows that Mr. Bartlett notified Officer Harless of the presence of the weapon before the pat down took place. This raises the issue of whether the officer had probable cause to make the arrest, an issue which is premature for this court to address"

I question how the prosecutor can proceed with such a case and keep a straight face.

If you live in the area, please join us as the trial has been scheduled to begin November 9th, 2011. I am locking this thread and moving the discussion to THAT thread over here:

Contrary to a popular belief when I brag about OFCC accomplishments I'm not looking for your thank you or personal recognition. I'd much prefer you send me an email telling me when you are going to get involved in doing what I've been doing since 1999. We are only as effective as we make ourselves. We need the next generation of OFCC to step to the plate.

Is that you?
