I mean Native American tribes are literally sovereign nations within the US so I'll give them a pass if that is what it was.
Regardless please explain under what circumstances it is necessary to not only take someone's freedom for 2 months but to also have the tax payers pay for their detainment all over a suspended license?
It's not necessary to keep them 2 months in jail, they do it to themselves.
Normal people, when they get arrested by a police officer, provide their ID, take whatever citation, pay the fine, and then move on.
Meanwhile, the typical interaction with a sovtard goes like this
Police officer "Hello sir, we stopped you because you were over the speed limit, and it seems your plates are expired, can you provide me with id, drivers license, proof of insurance?"
Sovtard: <insert nonsense about traveling not in commerce, maritime law, morrocan kings, etc.>
Police officer: "Please provide me with id, drivers license, proof of insurance, so I can give you a citation and we go our merry way"
Sovtard: <insert nonsense about not contracting, black's law dictionary, judges are a corporation, etc.>
Police officer: "You are legally obliged to provide these, if you don't, it's obstruction, and you'll be arrested"
Sovtard: <insert nonsense about bonds, secret bank accounts with trillions of dollars, etc.>
Police officer: <arrests sovtard, searches car, finds ID - runs it: no insurance, suspended license, etc.>
This goes on and on and on in front of judges the same pattern applies. Challenge jurisdiction every 15 minutes, refuse legal counsel, refuse to plead, 'I am the living Man', constantly interrupt the court's proceedings, fuck up at every corner, waste time with, general incompetence, general stupidity, 'I am not the allcaps representation of my name', etc etc
This is why these idiots spend 2+ months in jail over a citation and a ticket. They watched a youtube or tiktok retardfluencer selling them legal nonsense, bought it hook line and sinker. Some even go and surrender their driver's license if they had any, cancel their insurance, buy "PRIVATE not for commerce" license plates.
It's full blown stupidity.
Amazing your wrote several paragraphs and not once did you justify the cost or length of 2 months in jail.
Sorry but being annoying, wrong, and stupid isn't a good reason
There's nothing that justifies them spending 2 months in jail.
It's a thing they put themselves through. They get themselves arrested for obstuction, and then delay everything by continuing the sovcit nonsense.
I've watched videos of sovcits somehow managing to make their arraignment (a normally short procedure where you simply get told the alleged charges, the potential penalties, get asked if you understand them, and what do you plead, and whether you wish to proceed for a jury or a bench trial) last hours (plural)
Sovcits usually decide to go for jury trial (because you can't make law from the bench or something...), which, well, take time. Time they spent in jail, because they were arrested.
Yeah still not very convincing. Can you demonstrate they were also stinky? Then I may consider your point.
But in all seriousness, there's no reason to keep them. In prison. Release them from jail and if they don't show up issue a warrant. This isn't a big deal at all. I'd rather someone get away with having a suspended license than spending tax payer money on this.
Plus let's back up for a second. We have no evidence that this is even what happened in this case. You got on your soap box rather quickly
I said "solid chance they might just be a sovcit.", then had to explain to people what a sovcit is and why they spend stupid amount of time in jail for things nobody should spend time in jail.
She might very well not be a sovcit. I wouldn't bet on it though. You don't spend that long in jail over a suspended license unless you do something excessively stupid in the process.
Sovcit are not in jail because of the suspended license, but for the obstruction charges. They then stay in there because legal things take time, and the fact they do everything you shouldn't be doing if you want to get out of jail.
It's stupid, but it is what it is.
