MISSOURI SHAMEFUL SECRET: SIXTY SIX YEARS OF FIGHTING INNOCENCE! (Part 3)
The Violation of Statutory and Federal Law ★ The Jeffrey Weinhaus Story
The initial evidence seizure that set the shooting into motion bypassed both state and federal law. Missouri Revised Statute Section 43.200.3 explicitly mandates that highway patrol officers cannot execute search warrants without working in conjunction with the local elected sheriff. Sergeant Folsom executed the warrant alone, making the search extrajudicial.
Furthermore, the Privacy Protection Act of 1980 protects journalistic work product from standard search warrants, requiring a subpoena duces tecum instead. Seizing Weinhaus's recording equipment directly violated these federal press protections.
The defense counsel's failure to litigate these clear statutory violations during the trial phase ultimately prevented the suppression of illegally obtained evidence.
Tomorrow, we look at the physical impossibility of the state’s narrative. The official account relies on a split-second attempted assault that defies basic physics, the tactical layout of the scene, and eyewitness testimony from bystanders who saw the rapid escalation firsthand.
[On July 11th, Jeffrey will have been locked up for 5,000 days. To mark this milestone, this series will run consecutively up until the eve of that anniversary.]
