I don't want to be one doing the "Don't Trust reason.com to report news" schtick, but... The only independent verification I can find on this story is a GoFundMe launched by a relative: https://www.gofundme.com/f/restore-money-lost-after-wrongful-arrest https://www.gofundme.com/f/restore-money-lost-after-wrongful... Reason exists to flog stories about our terrible government overlords, and they've been caught pushing bad info in the past. This doesn't even report info that is publicly available in the arrest report and court plea! I'd strongly recommend waiting for a general news organization like the local TV station to report this first before forming too many opinions.
