More about the raid on Busby’s fundraiser

From Katie Hickox:

Mark,

Here’s a local video and story done on San Diego’s Channel 10:

The video features interviews with several of the guests as well as homeowner Shari Barman.

Here’s the press release issued by the San Diego Sheriff’s Department stating that the incident
is under internal investigation:

I have checked with my local police department and was told that only if someone is in the process
of being arrested is the officer justified in responding to “Why is my date of birth needed?” as resisting arrest. It is called initiating a process called “legal detention,” but the deputy Abbott didn’t tell the homeowner that he was in the process of arresting her.

Here is one of the comments left at the 10news.com article from one of the guests at the party:

I attended this event and the sheriff was truly out of control. He totally escalated the situation
and I among others [am] still in shock that this can happen in America. Yes, there was some
idiot screaming obscenities from the other side of the fence and that was in reality the only noise
of the party.

As you take verbal shots at Shari or Busby I would like to point out that I now believe this could happen to anyone and sadly we have a Sheriff who should not be carrying a gun or any other weapon out there.

The party itself was really quiet and had started at 7 with most guests arriving around 7:30.
There was no music and even a valet so neighbors would not be inconvenienced. This simply
has to be politically motivated because there is simply no other imaginable scenario.

I’d also like to know how much this cost the Sheriff’s department with all the sheriffs there AND a helicopter? There was about 1 police officer per person!
