- A mystery man arrested on minor charges more than three weeks ago remains behind bars in Utah while law enforcement officials try to determine his true identity, which he refuses to reveal.

"This is really a strange case," said Lt. Dennis Harris with the Utah County Sheriff's Office. "He just doesn't want to be found."

The unidentified man, who has graying hair, a light beard and is believed to be in his 60's, was arrested on July 1 for trespassing in a parking garage.

He was booked into jail on three misdemeanor charges and has thwarted any chance of release, with or without bail, by refusing to identify himself.

So the guy was in a parking garage.

That’s *very* suspicious.

Sure glad they arrested him.

Laz, we all are time travelers ... you're here today but you were somewhere yesterday, so you traveled to your tomorrow from your yesterday (it's a line spoken by one of my characters).

I'll bet if they posted apicture of the guy, someone would come forward as knowing whom he is. He might even tell them quickly if he thought his pix were about to be splattered all over the Internet.

Come on now, Vinnie and Vito just want to talk to him :^)

My stepfather wanted to go to jail rather than the nursing home his daughter picked out for him.

Ok the peace officer may demand, but does the citizen have an obligation to respond?

Evidently yes. But does trespassing consititue grounds for indefinate incarceration? After how many weeks in the slammer does the State face some compulsion to charge and indict?

Don’t identify yourself in Utah: Life sentence.

Obviously he’s a Starfleet officer from the 24th century that doesn’t want to violate the temporal prime directive. Obviously.

You present an interesting situation, where refusing to identify oneself could function as a “Get Out of Jail” card.
