Police refused to accept her own identification even though description didn\u2019t match up.<\/em><\/p>\n

A woman is suing Broward County, Florida, after law enforcement officers there arrested her for something someone else did, refusing to accept her own identification and ignoring the fact that the description of the wanted woman didn\u2019t match.<\/p>\n

The Institute for Justice<\/a> reports the complaint against the county is on behalf of Jennifer Heath Box.<\/p>\n

She charges authorities violated her constitutional right to be free from unreasonable search and seizure, as well as due process.<\/p>\n

The IJ explained the background:<\/p>\n

In December 2022, Jennifer went on a cruise with family members to celebrate the news that her younger brother, Mark, had beat cancer for the second time. After a fun week aboard the Harmony of the Seas, the cruise ship returned to Port Everglades on the morning of Christmas Eve, giving Jennifer enough time to spend Christmas with her three adult children. But when Jennifer scanned her ID to get off the ship, police surrounded her and told her there was a warrant for her arrest for child endangerment out of Harris County, Texas.<\/p>\n

The IJ reported the warrant did seek a woman named Jennifer, but it wasn\u2019t this Jennifer. And she documented that her own children already all were adults.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a really scary and confusing experience, because I\u2019ve never had run-ins with law enforcement and I have no criminal record,\u201d she explained. \u201cI couldn\u2019t believe that I could be stopped, arrested, and jailed, just because my name was similar to someone they were looking for.\u201d<\/p>\n

She knew the officers were wrong, so she cooperated calmly and provided police with her license and date of birth, as well as information about her children.<\/p>\n

It didn\u2019t matter to officers.<\/p>\n

\u201cBroward County Sheriff\u2019s Deputy Peter Peraza handcuffed her on the ship and took her to a police car for additional questioning. In the car, Jennifer continued to lay out evidence that Peraza had the wrong person, but he insisted everything on the warrant matched Jennifer\u2019s identification. It didn\u2019t,\u201d the IJ said.<\/p>\n

For example, the suspect\u2019s name was Jennifer Delcarmen Heath, not Jennifer Heath Box, the suspect was 23 years younger than Jennifer, making her even younger than one of Jennifer\u2019s children, the suspect was five inches shorter than Jennifer, the suspect had different color eyes, hair, and skin tone and the suspect had a different home address, driver\u2019s license number, social security number, and Harris County System Person Number.<\/p>\n

Then, in what would seem to be important, the law enforcement search was for a woma with \u201cfive young children.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPeraza had so much evidence that he had the wrong Jennifer, and he either ignored that evidence or deliberately misled other Broward County officials,\u201d said IJ Attorney Jared McClain. \u201cWe must be able to hold government officials accountable when they overlook glaring evidence and arrest the wrong person.\u201d<\/p>\n

When Peraza arrived at the booking station with the wrong woman, the officer there confirmed she had no outstanding warrants, but Peraza didn\u2019t believe him.<\/p>\n

\u201cJennifer was then strip searched and booked. Over the next three days, she faced horrible conditions. A male inmate routinely tried to enter Jennifer\u2019s cell while she was alone, and officers blasted death metal over the speakers and freezing air into the cell, making it so cold that she had to sleep back-to-back with another inmate just to keep warm,\u201d the IJ said.<\/p>\n

Her husband, a police officer, told the county to compare her fingerprints, but officers refused.<\/p>\n

Finally, family members found that a Harris County employee had damagingly attached Jennifer\u2019s driver\u2019s license photo to the warrant, instead of the suspect\u2019s photo.<\/p>\n

IJ litigation lawyer Bobbi Taylor said, \u201cThis lawsuit is about making sure what happened to Jennifer doesn\u2019t happen to anyone else. This needs to stop.\u201d<\/p>\n

The \u201cmistake\u201d cost her three days in jail, the holidays with her children, and a meet-up with a son who was being deployed with the Marines.<\/p>\n
