Question ...
Just curious but last night I was going through ALL the notes, phone numbers, names of people who I spoke to, etc,etc, that has anything to do with this whole mess and putting them together in a folder when I asked my SIL to please give me ALL the paperwork he received from court etc, and I was a little surprised at what he handed me.
From the day he was arrested and processed, the 23 days he was incarcerated, 2 court appearances, and the charges being dropped he has only 2 (two) papers that have ANY significance, actually only 1 (one) has significance. The 1st paper he has is a paper for his booking intake/personal property inventory which doesn't mean too much considering I picked up his personal property IMMEDIATELY, except for his clothes which they do not allow to be released to anyone. The 2nd paper is from the 1st appearance in court but it doesn't state anything other than the name of the judge, court reporter, DA, PD, etc and that he was being charged as a "PC fugitive" from Jones County MS. Oh and that he signed "waiver of extradition" in open court. There is that "notification" of charges being dropped but that's just a little white note with his name, date and time, and the words "charges dropped released to streets" ...
I'm no expert, so correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me he should have had a copy of the extradition papers he signed and something from the 2nd court appearance. I would think there has to be a paper trail somewhere and isn't your right to have copies of everything pertaining to your case??? I mean he has copies of my going directly to the jail and dropping off money, Xmas cards, even copies of the books I sent him through Amazon.com but yet NOTHING that I would think was more important and had much more significance. Are those papers of ANY importance at all??? Do I need them and should I have them??? Shouldn't HE have been given them???
I Thank You for the smiley face it made my day ...
I am on the phone calling NCIC to find out if the warrant or whatever information they had has been cleared. According to San Diego "warrant query" there is none but I don't think that would include warrants from another state but am about to find out.
One last thing, I thought it would be interesting to call and speak to the "arresting officer" from SDPD who took custody of him from U.S. Customs and transported him to San Diego Central Jail. My SIL said Customs ran his ID that morning said they had a hit, told him he was a fugitive out of MS (WHICH BY THE WAY IS WHY IN MY 1ST POST I SAID HE WAS ARRESTED ON A FUGITIVE WARRANT), detained him, and called SDPD to transport him. Something to me doesn't sound right, somewhere along the line shouldn't a phone call have been made? The name of the booking officer, arresting officer, etc are on the booking intake paper but believe it or not something seems to have been spilled on it and the names are not legible, just my luck huh?
And Carl maybe you could answer me this ...why did U.S. Customs read him his miranda rights, hand him over to SDPD and then they had him in custody for 3 days, took him to court and read him miranda rights again in court? I would like to reming you he wasn't charged with ANYTHING that day?
I realize I'm very inquisitive and ask a lot of questions but if I don't ask I'll never know and I'll never learn, right? I'm basically a very logical person when I'm calm and not threatening bodily harm ...

That's where all the how come's and the why's come from. I do appreciate all your expertise ...

VERY VERY MUCH!!!
