US CA: PUB LTE: Courts Should Send Message To County

Record Searchlight, 25 Jul 2012 – Reading your story of Deputy Mark Potts, and the suppression of his First Amendment rights by Trinity County, I was shocked and amazed by the actions of his superiors. His thoughtful constitutional interpretations on firearms, drugs, and county sheriff’s jurisdiction should be welcome in a free country such as this. I’d hope that he wins declaratory and injunctive relief, as well as punitive damages from Trinity County. Trinity needs a sting to make the message real.
