Update: The Denton County Prosecutors’ Office has informed The Real News that the sheriff’s department never turned over charges or submitted evidence concerning Thomas’s arrest or investigation. Read more.
Thomas, a Texas firefighter, was driving in Denton County when he was suddenly pulled over by local sheriffs. Despite being completely sober, he quickly found himself railroaded into a DUI charge by police, who claimed he appeared “slow” and “heavy footed.” Body camera footage has since revealed that the arresting officers even commented during the arrest that they did not believe Thomas was drunk. So why was Thomas arrested, and what does this reveal about the capricious nature of police power? Police Accountability Report examines the evidence.
Production: Stephen Janis, Taya Graham
