[VC:MP] Closed Complaints / Complaint Against FBI Special Agent Kowalski
« Last post by danigold on September 25, 2022, 20:26:12 pm »Report against: Special Agent Kowalski
Name(s) of those reporting: Sally Slaughter on behalf of Homero Sanchez (Sup_)
Reasons: Negligence, failure to read the Miranda Rights properly, endangerment, misuse of equipment (firearms) and vandalism
Evidence:
Other Details:
Today (25.9.2022) FBI Special Agent has broken several laws and part(s) of the Law Enforcement Code of Vice City.
We shall with the arrest of my client, Homero Sanchez, who was suspected and arrested for brandishing a firearm, and endangerment by Special Agent Kowalski and VCPD Officer Hazard.
My client immediately surrendered, and was cuffed and put into a police cruiser (without being read his Miranda Rights, mind you!). Kowalski then got into the drivers seat, and drove to WBPD, and upon arrival, Kowalski left my client without explanation in the back seat, handcuffed, without any windows open or AC running, in the Florida heat (which peaked at 32C degrees today!), for a total of 10 long minutes. As Kowalski returned 10 minutes later, my client, full of sweat from the heat and probably dehydrated, had to ask Kowalski for a cup of water to avoid dehydration (which can be seen in the evidence).
After getting his water, Mr. Sanchez asked for an attorney to be present in the investigation, and called me to WBPD, and upon my arrival, I've asked to have a few minutes alone with my sweaty client to get updated on the situation, and I found out, that my client was never read his Miranda Rights! Luckily he still knew he could call a lawyer to aid and represent him.
Then, once the interrogation began, with me, Homero, Kowalski and Hazard present, at 11:24, my client was finally read his Miranda Rights, a whole 33 minutes after his initial arrest and detainment.
After explaining the reason of the arrest, where Kowalski said my client endangered people by causing an explosion "in the vicinity where people were present", I questioned him how far away the closest person to the explosion was, which he could not answer.
When questioned on why my client was left in a hot car, Kowalski said "a call escalated to a point in which lives were in danger", and may I ask, were those lives more important than the life of my client? Which you endangered by locking him in a hot car, in the middle of the day? I'd call that pure negligence.
My Client's testimony is attached with this complaint at the bottom.
Furthermore, I have footage and pictures of Special Agent Kowalski, using his state issued MP5 by shooting it at several vehicles, causing them to be totaled (vandalism and misuse of government issued equipment), as someone is standing just about 5~ Meters from the area, endangering them, and even seeming to injure Kowalski himself! (Endangerment)
When asked why he did that, Kowalski said "Just a few vehicles obstructing the road [to] clear the traffic", and when asked why they couldn't have been safely towed, Kowalski gave the cold shoulder and left us with more questions than answers.
Mr. Homero Sanchez' testimony:
Isn't it also interesting how when Kowalski blows up vehicles allegedly to clear the road, its ok, but when my client does it for the same reason, he is prosecuted and jailed? Shouldn't the law enforcers be held to the same standard as everybody else?

Mr. Homero Sanchez' testimony:
Quote
Greetings, this is citizen Homero Sanchez, and this is my testimony. As the complaint says, I was indeed left alone for a grueling 10 minutes inside the police car by Special Agent Kowalski while he left the scene for reasons unknown to me, I could have died of a heat stroke if they took any longer which is why as one of the exhibits shows I was asking for a cup of water which was granted afterwards thankfully, otherwise I would have landed in a hospital bed rather than a jail cell. I wasn't read my Miranda Rights upon the initial arrest, and had them read to me only after my attorney, Sally Slaughter questioned Agent Kowalski about it. Not to mention the fact that he seemed to be uncharacteristically rude towards my attorney for no reason I don't exactly get it.
Signed, Homero Sanchez
