Failed even to check public records that could have prevented the abuse
Police in Houston have arrested and jailed a man for six weeks for something that someone else did.
And despite the apparent negligence by authorities – they didn’t even bother to check public records to verify they had the correct suspect – the Institute for Justice says it’s almost impossible to hold the law enforcement members accountable.
That’s because the Supreme Court refused to take action in a previous case where a man similarly was jailed for something someone else did for “only” three days.
