Quote from the article:
| Brandon Jones admits he agreed to meet Deputy Charles Ashley, whom he describes as a "one-man drug task force," to sell him drugs at a convenience store parking lot on the evening of Aug. 14, 2008. Jones says he had no idea that Ashley was a cop as he climbed into the passenger seat of his car. Nor did he know that another deputy, Wally Carpenter, was a short distance away, providing cover during the anticipated drug exchange and arrest, But Jones claims he could tell that Ashley was drunk when they met. After a few minutes of conversation, Ashley texted a distress code to Carpenter, who quickly pulled up alongside Jones' car, according to the complaint. Jones said he had not done anything to threaten the officer, nor did he have a weapon in his hands. As Carpenter approached, he said, his hands were plainly visible on the steering wheel, and he did not move any other part of his body. |
