“They don’t always like to do it, but you can get them to if they are not busy or on a boring day.”
This guy was using Sheriff’s detectives to repossess things like laptops. I don’t think he was getting judgments as it would be too much effort for the frequent and small dollar items. Also, Panama City is tiny and everybody knew everybody else. The powers that be in politics had been the same families forever. I was thinking it was one of those good old boy family things. (Detectives here can’t be bothered with little crime. It actually has to be political if there isn’t a body laying on the ground.)
If that’s true then it is just common theft and they should all be prosecuted.
Sherrif’s cannot force it without a court order
