Latest filings in the U.S. Department of Justice’s lawsuit against Alamance County Sheriff Terry Johnson.
DOJ claims Johnson’s office “changed its booking procedures in order to facilitate its targeting of Latinos shortly after entering into a 287(g) memorandum of agreement in 2007,” while Johnson’s lawyer claims DOJ has not made potential witnesses available to the defense.
The DOJ’s investigation has been going for four years now, and after two mediation conferences failed to provide a settlement, it appears as though the case will go to trial Aug. 4.
