Owed Child Support = Murder
With the memorial to Thomas Ball in mind, a man chewed up and spit out by the family court system, I wanted to share a federal civil rights suit against a police officer who was sent to arrest a man for failing to pay state mandated child support.
The case is Henry v. Purnell, No. 08-7433 and it is from the 4th Federal Circuit Court of Appeals.
What we have here is another instance of a police officer “accidently” using a gun to shoot someone running away in lieu of a Taser.
From Findlaw.com:
In a Section 1983 action arising from the fatal shooting of a suspect wanted for misdemeanor failure to pay child support, summary judgment in favor of defendant-police officer is reversed because: 1) although defendant intended to use his Taser rather than his gun to stop fleeing suspect, Tennessee v. Garner prohibits shooting suspects who pose no significant threat of death or serious physical threat; and 2) defendant’s use of force could be viewed by a jury as objectively unreasonable.
Yeah, I’d say that blasting a non-violent person into the the afterlife over unpaid child support is “objectively unreasonable.”
When you use state violence to solve non-violent problems, this is what happens. People get murdered. Over owed child support.
This case just came out yesterday. Don’t think for an instant that these types of cases are not a daily occurrence.
