Raw Power Posted November 27, 2020 at 05:01 PM Share Posted November 27, 2020 at 05:01 PM when KSU police pulled him over on a Saturday night for driving without his headlights on, an order for his arrest turned up in the state crime database. Over the next morning, Jones would be placed in handcuffs, driven to jail and dressed in a blue inmate uniform. “I was shocked and confused, because I wasn’t sure why there was a warrant out,” Jones said. “I’ve never had any prior run-ins with law enforcement. That was my first time ever being pulled over.” Forgetting his headlights wasn’t what landed him trouble. His predicament started two years earlier when, just after his 21st birthday, Jones applied for a firearms carry permit in his South Georgia hometown. The sheriff’s office in Albany added his personal information to a countywide database of names used by law enforcement to track criminal suspects, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution determined. https://www.ajc.com/news/investigations/applying-for-a-gun-permit-cost-ksu-student-a-night-in-jail/VC7U3FPTJBFJXMTUVR3WSMHSZ4/?fbclid=IwAR1bik2cmSLWN_S_z7S3piMm_xmvLUUxyYmlXQLUnopnvCYqJ9Cl5NJ4emk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
