Arrest warrant

He was there photographing and filming and interviewing people and stuff, but they disrupted a worship service, and I believe the reason they gave was 'cause one of the ministers there worked for ICE.

And the government sought arrest warrants for eight people from Magistrate Judge Mickle.

Magistrate Judge Mickle issued three for the three that he perceived to be the leaders.

He did not think there was probable cause to issue arrest warrants for the other five.

Then the government did something that, as far as I could tell and my colleagues could tell, had never been done, and that's an expression we used a lot, never been done.

They wanted to appeal Judge Mickle's decision not to arrest the other five or issue arrest warrants on the other five.

And the US attorney told me this as the chief judge, and so the first thing I did was I had our clerk randomly assign this appeal to one of our judges.

It was me.

Welcome to In Your Defense with Mark Diaz, passionate criminal defense attorney with over 25 years of experience defending the rights of Texans.

I'm Leanne Lyon, and today we are talking about bench warrants and failure to appear.

Mark will go over what triggers them, how courts respond, and what someone can expect when a missed court date turns into a whole new problem.

Hello, Mark.

Yesterday, the High Court issued an arrest warrant for the arrest of Nana Yaw Baffour, who a member of Parliament for Munsie South, uh, whom we're told, uh, that since February twenty twenty-six has refused to honor an EYOKO criminal investigative invitation.

Now, a post from the Deputy Attorney General, Justice Sremtsai, said this, uh, Ewes' imminent arrest is part of an inquiry by EYOKO into a complaint of unauthorized financial transactions at SIC Life Savings and Loans Company, resulting in crimes of financial loss, dissipation of public funds, money laundering, amongst others.

Let's get onto the phone lines now, uh, because, um, uh, Dr.

Uh, thank you very much.

I, I have not been informed that the arrest has happened yet, so I would, uh, say that it has not yet happened.

But once an arrest warrant is issued, it means that at any moment, the person will be picked up following the, the, the necessary processes of arrest.

And, um, let me take this opportunity to clarify a few things as well.

Sure.

But remember, the news first broke on Monday night.

And since then, a representative for Clavicular named Mitchell Jackson has communicated to several media outlets that Peters has not been served with an arrest warrant for his charges.

In an email to NPR, Jackson reportedly wrote, she files a lawsuit and doesn't include sexual assault as a count.

Then she amends it and adds it a couple of months later.

And the theme here is actually kind of similar based on the allegations, like she was looking for him to help her advance her career, right? That seems to be a theme that we're seeing here too.

As far as I

can tell, at the time of this recording, he still hasn't been served with an arrest warrant.

I don't know if that's going to change, but if I'm accurate about that, if he hasn't been served with an arrest warrant, why?
