The way it works is that someone (normally a cop) prepares an affidavit and then presents it to a judge (normally a Justice of the Peace) who reads it and determines whether probable cause exists to issue a warrant.
I came across the above affidavit last week (it's public record in Wise County). Notice that it is for an arrest warrant for Jessica for Intentionally Making A False Statement To Obtain Credit. Basically, it alleges she went to Cash America for a loan and brings with her her pay stubs. Cash America employee McGuire (I assume she's an employee - the affidavit doesn't say) tells Jessica to change her earnings on the application so she'll be able to get a loan.
I post it for two reasons: (1) you are looking at the entire affidavit that a judge looked at before signing a warrant, and (2) if true, Jessica knew she was signing a false application, but that falsity was promoted by an employee of Cash America who is the "victim" in this case and, more likely than not, wants restitution for a defaulted loan.

Or, they were both in it together.
So, the question is, Mr. LL, does the affidavit met the elements of the offense? If it does, then it doesn't matter if the affidavit is a paragraph or four pages long...does it?
Sounds like they are following in the steps of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. I smell a bailout coming.

If it's public record why did you mark out names?
Just cuz she is arrested doesn't mean it will be prosecuted. Remember that.
Jessica "SINGED" the contract? lol. Maybe she's not a very good singer.
I'm surprised the PoPo didn't recite their favorite five words, "This is a civil matter..."
Damn, how to you get to be a cop when your spelling is this horrible?
"Used to I couldnt spell law ossifer, now I is one."
And in fact, to add to my last comment, I would think that Jessica and these other suspects would have a bang-up lawsuit against Cash America for inducing them into a fraudulent criminal activity.
Well, that goes to show that A)The Decatur police officers cannot write up a nice affidavit and B) sure cannot spell well and C)make it tough for any magistrate to make a call.
I would have made this detective rewrite this affidavit and try to look competent at least...
Decatur police can't spell but surely can hide behind bushes, building etc, to protect the good citizens (not to mention filling the coffers)of Decatur from speeding bullets.
Who says that the Decatur Police has competent Detectives? One camps out at Weatherford College and the other may or may not show up around his Grapevine Fire Department schedule. So to define competent, one is an idiot fireman and the other is a police officer getting a Weatherford College education. Hopefully the cop is taking a spelling class.
Had the loan and its high interest been paid.......not a word. Want to bet the housing crises was in someways caused by the same inducements?
Sounds like the same thing that was going on at South Town Ford a few years back.
1. Once again everyone wants to jump on the "I hate the police bandwagon". I have two brothers who are police officers and I can assure you I wouldn't have thier jobs for anything. If your half as smart as you think you are, or the police are half as dumb as you believe..Weatherford College also has a police academy. Put your money where your mouth is.
2. Cheers to any officer that is taking classes to better themselves. Double cheers to any officer that is also a Fireman and EMT or Paramedic as most of the Decatur Police Department.
3. Next time you need help forget 911, call a crackhead.
Sounds like 2:13 is a disgrunteled ex-friend/co-worker!!!
So I told the name and you can't post it dusch bag?! He don't even work there so why does it matter! You must be all buddy buddy with the troopers
BG if you think cops are such idiots then why don't you post his name and the judges name that signed it?
I bet all law enforcement hates you Barry! If you are so liberal than tell us who it is!!!
3:11 your right. It only takes one bad comment to start a hate the police campaign. A police officer with 4 years of service and the required training for the next level of cetification, has the equivalent to a bachelors degree. I could care less if an officer can't spell as long as he or she gets the job done. Thanks to all the officers that do what others cannot.
Sister of an officer
2:13-It sounds like you're obsessed with the po-po's. Get a life!!!
It don't take much to be a POLICE man I use to be one in Decatur! Then I got a real job and had to go to work.
I may get a ticket if I speed; but, a policeman is very important if and when I need him. I would never disrespect one.
LOL @ 4:37!!
WOW...so who is it you call when you need help? I hope all of you who slam the cops never need help. I know I don't want to have to do their job in the cold, heat, rain, and so forth. I would rather say thanks and be glad they are there to protect me.
WOW you don't think we all work in the heat and cold weather and sometimes rain? why is a cop job so much better than say water Dept. or truck driver they are out in bad weather also when you need something moved or some water who do you call? I did thier job and it anit all that important it's just a job.
I dont call the cops, I call Smith and Wesson!
3:17- I agree and I bet I know who it is. My brother in law works with him at the medic station sometimes and all he does is complain about everyone he works with. I would say his name but his mom taught me as I am getting my "Weatherford College" education, so I would hate to disrespect her.
I hope the Decatur City Council reads this and does something about these people.
It is obvious that BG has not respect for law enforcement in the first place. His very use of the word "COP" indicates such. Isn't just the same as calling lawyers 'SHARKS."
Where is the respect in our society?
Officer
Attorney or lawyer
Sir or Maam?
Barry never liked the Police. That is why he crossed over to the dark side. Those who play illegal stay illegal. Barry just went to be prosecutor for a short time to strum up more business. Kinda like our most recent DA J. Jones. They all believe in the guilty being free amongst us. I know Barry won't call the Police when his clients don't pay, because he knows it is a Civil Matter.
You folks are so busy slamming law enforcement that you missed the point. Re-read the statement where it states that the bank employee admitted to changing the salary. Jessica may or may not have known that it was changed. The bank employee is the one whose name should be on an arrest warrant.
