Over the weekend a few law abiding gun owners were harassed and threatened with arrest, knowingly in violation of the law.
I was absolutely heartbroken to find out that one of these officers was not only an officer of the law, but the Asst. Police Chief!
Is corruption overtaking your town, or is this situation being handled?
Here is a list of laws I believe were broken, and will be doing some citizen investigating into this further, your response would be greatly appriciated.
752.11 Upholding or enforcing the law; duty of public officials.
Sec. 1.
Any public official, appointed or elected, who is responsible for enforcing or upholding any law of this state and who wilfully and knowingly fails to uphold or enforce the law with the result that any person's legal rights are denied is guilty of a misdemeanor.
750.478 Willful neglect of duty; public officer or person holding public trust or employment; penalty.
Sec. 478.
When any duty is or shall be enjoined by law upon any public officer, or upon any person holding any public trust or employment, every willful neglect to perform such duty, where no special provision shall have been made for the punishment of such delinquency, constitutes a misdemeanor punishable by imprisonment for not more than 1 year or a fine of not more than $1,000.00.
"...We were then approached by 3 officers, one out of uniform..." And the other two were aware of Buckmaster's actions,but never stepped in against him? Sounds like this to me,
750.157a Conspiracy to commit offense or legal act in illegal manner; penalty.
Sec. 157a.
Any person who conspires together with 1 or more persons to commit an offense prohibited by law, or to commit a legal act in an illegal manner is guilty of the crime of conspiracy punishable as provided herein:
(a) Except as provided in paragraphs (b), (c) and (d) if commission of the offense prohibited by law is punishable by imprisonment for 1 year or more, the person convicted under this section shall be punished by a penalty equal to that which could be imposed if he had been convicted of committing the crime he conspired to commit and in the discretion of the court an additional penalty of a fine of $10,000.00 may be imposed.
(b) Any person convicted of conspiring to violate any provision of this act relative to illegal gambling or wagering or any other acts or ordinances relative to illegal gambling or wagering shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for not more than 5 years or by a fine of not more than $10,000.00, or both such fine and imprisonment.
(c) If commission of the offense prohibited by law is punishable by imprisonment for less than 1 year, except as provided in paragraph (b), the person convicted under this section shall be imprisoned for not more than 1 year nor fined more than $1,000.00, or both such fine and imprisonment.
(d) Any person convicted of conspiring to commit a legal act in an illegal manner shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for not more than 5 years or by a fine of not more than $10,000.00, or both such fine and imprisonment in the discretion of the court.
