What makes you say it was wrongful? They received a report of a man threatening people with a bottle, found a man there matching the description who had a bottle, detained him to investigate, and were attacked and so arrested him.

So is the article. It's also extremely poorly researched, which is the worst offense, because it would have taken perhaps 30 minutes of research to verify some of the things it asserts as fact.

You hit the nail on the head.

They initially charge you with more severe crimes and a decent number of them, with the expectation that you’ll plead out to at least one of them thus landing them a conviction.

Not sure if RPD does this but have had a Henrico prosecutor tell me verbatim that’s why their conviction rate is so high.

Va for lovers❤️
