I was charged with two felonies last April and have evidence to clear my name. The DA, Michael Ladd, will not look at my case and told me in court to just "plead guilty" if I want a speedy trial. I have spent 7,500.00 on bail and 5,000 in attorney fees. I am on the verge of losing my house because of this huge legal set back. If he would just look at the evidence and witnesses that I have then charges would be dropped against me. I would then be able to sue the city for False arrest, unlawful restraint, unlawful detention. I was held in the county jail for 12 hours before making bail. I was not afforded a cup for water and was fed two cups of pea soup with stale crackers.
The lights in the cell I was in were all broken or burned out. I have worked in corrections for almost 11 years now and was in the Army acitve duty for 4 years. I have never seen a worse correctional facility than that in all my years in corrections. I had a clean record and have never had a run in with the law before I was arrested. Nobody took a statement from me prior to my arrest or even made an attempt to talk with me. It was all one sided. I want justice! And a refund of all my legal fees ASAP!
