Would be nice if the Lazer would do little research and let us know if these are actual new charges or if they are charges from warrants served for the charges. Know several of the people listed were not recently charged with what it says but that they had been charged previously for them and had warrants. Thank You Lazer for getting the information out there just would be nice to know the rest of the story.
Notice many of the defendants are smiling? Thats because they know that they’ll be facing judge Preston.
