I looked at a few different articles about this, but none of them said what she owed the $1000 fine for (which was 15 days overdue).
Why didn't they just send her a bill?
And even if their policy is to send officers out to collect fees (which is a rather curious practice to say the least), why do it at 1:30am? Who thought that one up? Did they just hear about it only that night, in the middle of the night? The article didn't really say that either.
Why don't these reporters ever give us these stories in their entirety? Why don't they ever ask the right questions? Why do they leave their readers with more questions than answers? I can understand that the cops may be stonewalling and they may be getting a lot of "no comments," but at least say that they tried, that they at least thought of asking the question and made an effort to get an answer. But nowadays, they don't even bother doing that.
The lady who was arrested asked the question, which the reporter mentioned in the article: "Fifteen (days) overdue, why would you come to my house with this unbelievable show of force?" Griffin said. Too bad the reporter didn't ask that question when the Sheriff's Office Chief Deputy had that press conference. Then we might have gotten an answer and had a little more information about this case.
Is this common practice, to send small squads of officers to collect overdue fines? Who knows? Certainly the reporter doesn't know and didn't think to ask. Too much missing information in newspaper stories just bugs me to no end.
I'm sure they already sent a bill.
I'm surprised there wasn't simply a bench warrant out, and that was as far as it went. I also wonder if it's more than 15 days (not that a small group of officers seems financially prudent to send for a $1000 fine to begin with).
