They intentionally fucked with him on a Friday so he'd have to wait the weekend for everything. Don't forget it was planned for days ago.

My experience with this is decades ago when my friends and family were young, and dumb. But, they did this to someone close to me when they knew they served a dead warrant. Then they kept, " forgetting" to put the person on the transport to court. ( before telecourt) They basically kept the person in jail when they knew they wouldn't be found guilty of the warrant. Once this person got to court, they were released due to the warrant being dead.

Whether you are a Trump fan or not, pay attention to the legal games they're doing. It's just as legal to do these things to you.
