Pasco: Judge rejects sheriff’s office’s attempt to dismiss lawsuit challenging ‘predictive policing’ program
A federal judge rejected the Pasco County Sheriff’s motion to dismiss a case against Sheriff Chris Nocco’s Orwellian “predictive policing” program, the Institute of Justice said in a release Wednesday.
In a lawsuit filed by Pasco County families back in March, Nocco was accused of punishing people “for crimes they have not committed and may never commit” – in a practice called predictive policing.
Judge Steven D. Merryday issued an order denying the Pasco County sheriff’s motion to dismiss the lawsuit.
“Today’s decision is an important step toward the ultimate dismantling of the program,” Ari Bargil, an attorney at the Institute for Justice, which represents the families,

I would trust this sheriff as much i trust being outside and peeing in the wind. He’s got a pissy attitude and should never be a sheriff. Hell I wouldn’t trust him being a mechanic either, he’s in business to rob people blind including taxpayers. Time for N to be in a prison cell for corruption.
So The Pasco County Florida Sheriff wants the case tossed. That is laughable. He runs a program with Federal tax dollars and punishes people for crimes ” they have yet to commit” Now, he feels like he hasn’t committed a crime and the case should be tossed. I’m quite sure he is crying foul. He will not go down alone go down he shall. Three more Lawsuits have since been filed and this is only the beginning of sorrows for the ” protect and serve our own self interest crowd” It will now be impossible to get the “; toothpaste back in the tube” on this deal. Every law enforcement agency in America has this blood on their hands. I’m in North Mississippi, the last frontier of the dirty South. Today I signed a move on petition to prosecute to only living person that has criminal culpability in the death of Emmit Teal, this guy is 66. Really! You mean one of Tills Murders bis still on the lose? Yes, exactly my point of due process vis way over due. As I personally attempt bro make my cases the task is daunting. The corrupt nlaw enforcement of Lee and Union County Mississippi and the title of chief law enforcement officers with Community oriented policing funds still harass and make life a living hell. I’m now facing homelessness and can’t but food. I can fight and I will fight. Corruption is at an all-time high and the Blue wall of silence is killing Americans. I heard a very disturbing story from J. Presley daughter bof the late long time sheriff Harold Ray Presley and yes they are Elvis Presley kin folk. She told me about a young boy that was home with his mother and she killed herself nor so the story goes. It was ruled a sucicide. 5 years later to the day the husband killed himself same way gun shot to the head, ruled suicide. The boy was there both times. The boy ended up running with The Dixie criminal element of North Mississippi. And then, just like that. He became Sheriff after ( Harold Ray was shoot dead) The boys name is Jim H. Johnson and he is the defendant in one of my cases. I do have faith butbim absolutely flirting with the devil. I need support and to bring awareness. This is a culture of Nation wide corruption.
