It’s not my job to correct a US Senator, but Padilla told CNN “I was not detained.” Sir: unless you were free to go where you wanted, you were detained. They handcuffed you. That is detained.

I think he said he was not arrested.

No need to preface this with, "It’s not my job to correct a US Senator" They're fucking shitbags. Just say what you want

Probably meant he wasn't booked, but who knows

Absolutely. Every Criminal Lawyer watching the video yelled the same thing at the screen.

A detention is when you are no longer free to leave. He was forcibly removed, put on the ground, and handcuffed. Per case law this goes beyond a mere detention and becomes an arrest. Without probable cause, that arrest would be an unconstitutional violation of his 4th amendment right.

That's what I said to my husband. I turned to him and was like "handcuffed on your stomach looks pretty detained to me!"

I thought he said “I was not arrested”? I bet that’s what he meant after he was able to gather himself post-homeland security-style bukake.

I would go with had civil liberties violated. Detaining someone at least infers there was a reason for it. 🤷♂️

That is correct.

You’re correct. He’s got a great civil lawsuit for false arrest there.
