This man's lawyers were stupid and he should be suing them! If he used a Credit Card, the CC company should also have a record of him using it. Every transaction is a mini loan. You have a start of that loan and payments on it until its paid off. You payment is broken up and a little is paid on each mini loan.
The credit card does not record the minute THE CAR WAS RENTED. It shows the day when the card was processed. Go check your own statements. How many time stamps (down to the minute) do they show?
I think what steve meant to say is that the recorded transaction time with the credit card company doesn't exactly prove what time the card was swiped, just what time the transaction actually went through on their end. It takes time for the processing to go through before the CC company has record of it. Hertz would have an exact time stamp of the physical card swipe in their system. I would bet the CC company records show the time stamp late enough that the crime could still be committed in time to make it to hertz.
@@ytcommentor Your wrong, credit card transactions are date stamped but not time stamped except at the point of purchase. Which, in this case, was Hertz.
Hertz has no criminal liability at all. You can argue that Hertz could easily have provided the receipt, but they are not criminally liable in any way. The plaintiff’s attorney will attempt to argue that Hertz has some civil liability and this will be decided by a judge or jury. Hertz has no more criminal liability than a witness who refuses to testify would have. Additionally; it is not up to the defense to prove innocence. It is up to the prosecution to prove guilt. We don’t know what other evidence they presented at the trial, or how competent the defendant’s legal counsel was. There is also no indication that the presentation of the receipt would have been the difference between a guilty verdict and an acquittal. The receipt only proves evidence that the credit card was used. It doesn’t prove who used it.
@@KayFabe87 they defied multiple court orders to produce or show reason why they cannot produce said documents. They ignored the courts order thus they, the courts and his original attorneys all hold culpability in this.
Do you realize he told Steve that, doesn’t mean he was going to do it. He wasn’t going to show up period. He would take the lumps with the judge if it really came to it but it motivated Steve to get the case resolved or get the case adjourned. Vacations for cops are usually scheduled months or even a year in advance. Hence why he was going on vacation despite Steve’s case. Their vacation does not get automatically rescheduled because of a BS civil court case. Nor does the cop get the money back he spent on tickets , hotels . Nor does help with their domestic situation when they tell their spouse Steve’s BS case canceled their vacation .
The prosecutor didn’t drop the charges for ten months after the receipt was produced. They tried to make a case for ten months after the receipt was produced and could not do it.
If you or I failed to provide subpoenaed records, it would not take the judge three years to lock us up for contempt. It Hertz to see the double-standard.

@@Shiro_Amada I agree with you in the sense that I personally think that literally taking someones eye for an eye is an excessive (barbaric) punishment. But, I do believe in the concept of having punishments determined based on the crime, which is still the (non-literal) "eye for an eye" concept. In this specific case, it seems to me that the actual crime would be related to not complying with the subpoenas and court orders. In my opinion, 5 years in jail would be an excessive punishment for that crime. As far as the civil lawsuit goes, I understand that to be more about compensation for damages caused by someone's misdeeds. That's a totally different concept. It will be interesting to hear what the parties come up with in this case.
If that cop was so willing to lie about that, think about the many cases he's testified in and possibly lied about what happened. I hope you filed a complaint with his supervisor. They needed to know that they have an officer who is willing to lie to get what he wants!

Enterprise is no better... I stopped into one of their stores to rent a truck to haul asphalt shingles to the dump with. I told them I wanted one with a bedliner because the shingles might scratch their paint job. They didn't have one but said it was okay...

I told him I'm not signing anything, left, and went straight to my insurance company. My insurance company told me that by not signing their form that I made their job easier and they dealt with it. My insurance rates didn't change but when I asked them about it later, I was told that Enterprise tacked on every type of damage except the kitchen sink! 🤣
I avoid renting if at all possible. Where I'm living, scooters are used a lot. To avoid the usual scams/leaving my passport with the scooter rental company, I take my own scooter in the back of my pick up. 5-10 minutes to load or unload...less time than actually renting and then no hassles with the rental companies, even if I cause damage...it's my own scooter.

All I know is that I'm going through a stack of receipts to see if the $18 charge at "Mike's Sub Shop" from 3 days after the employee got back matches a receipt in the pile, or is fraudulent activity.
That happened to a man down here some years back. The only difference was the prosecution didn’t tell him about a 911 call (from a prepaid cell) until it was too late to identify the caller because the call records had been deleted.
@@PsRohrbaugh -- What you are seeing is the date and time the batch was processed. For many banks, it is M-F excluding holidays. (This relates to the old days when these things were all processed by hand by employees who worked "bankers" hours.) Despite other opinions, the credit card company has a record of the exact moment the card was swiped or the chip read or the information was otherwise transmitted to the financial institution. The reason the car rental transaction mattered so much was because the credit card company records don't prove WHO used the card, but the car rental company would have verified the identification of the person renting the vehicle -- this is much stronger alibi evidence.
Moral of the story: Always keep your receipts! My receipt story: Sheetz has a policy now to not print a receipt unless you ask for one. About a month ago, I went to Sheetz and bought several things that added up to $30+. I was charged $40+. As I was walking out, It stuck in my mind that the total seemed too high, so I put on my reading glasses and read the receipt (which I had to ask for) and it had a $10 charge for pre-paid gas on pump 11. I went back and talked to the manager and got my money back. She passed it off a a probable mistake. I think I accidentally discovered a new scam that store employees at gas stations can pull on you when they routinely don't give receipts. Add $5 or $10 in pre-paid gas to a transaction, and have your friend or family member put that free gas in their car when you leave. ALWAYS ask for a receipt and check it!
If I was Steve I would have pulled out my phone, put the subpoena up in front of the cop and take a picture. Then the cop could be charged with contempt at the very least for perjury.
Because he had neither a video tape camera nor a film movie camera with him! However, possibly he carried a cell phone that can record videos digitally. He should have had that handy.
In a case like this where a company ignores a court order the court should issue a warrant for the CEO, I guarantee that will instantly get the company to comply.
I am surprised that the Judge, having ordered them to produce the document, didn't fine them for contempt when they failed to do so, especially since it was so critical to the trial.
serving on a jury is one of the most wonderful things that can happen. A country that was founded on the idea we will select members of our society to hold that level of immense responsibility, it amazes me. I have never been called to serve, but if I was called I would go with bells on. To get the honor to serve society in a deep and meaningful way is nothing to shy away from.
On holding Hertz accountable; I am reminded of the scene from the movie Valkyrie where they attempt to arrest Goebbels. Do this with Hertz and make it stick. Hertz has wronged too many people with false charges and delays by their management.
The moment you brought up the cop saying he'd deny getting it, I just thought about pulling out my phone, holding the subpoena up with him visible, and snapping a photo.
and this is why so many people who give summons do exactly that! But then again police have boldly lied about what happened knowing there was video/photo proof to show otherwise. This is why I have an issue with trusting police.
Also, corporations have a "revolving door" of officers. They're constantly getting transferred, promoted, hired by other companies, and so on - so they often only ever see the "big picture" of what's going on in their department. Not only is this part of the cause of these problems, but it can shield them from liability.

I would like to hear the justification from the court in allowing this to go forward with Hertz refusing to honor multiple subpoenas and/or warrants. What did the court do to Hertz?
The worst part is that once a false conviction has been nullified, like this, or an accused is proven not-guilty at trial, the police never, or rarely, go back to the case and try to find the real criminal. They 'get their accused' and if they wrong, they give up, leaving the criminal or killer go scott free.
You are right. In every false conviction that has been overturned story I never hear of any efforts or even a mention of looking for the actual perpetrator of the crime. And it's often a horrible crime.

There was a case around here a few years ago with an even more perfect alibi. The defendant in a burglary case insisted that he was innocent, but he couldn't remember what he was doing on the day in question. During the trial someone said something that reminded me of where he was at the time. He told his lawyer and the lawyer talked to the judge and the prosecutor, and court was dismissed for the day. The next morning, the sheriff of a nearby county was in the courtroom along with his jail records. He was called to testify and to have his records admitted as evidence that the defendant was in his jail 80 miles away at the time of the burglary. Obviously, the case was dismissed.

Indeed there would seem to be a triad of evidence that this would produce. The video, the Hertz receipt and some kind of credit card /debt card transaction. The failure to get one begets the question of the other two, or perhaps somebody was renting a car in his name? I dunno, I wasn't there...........it very well could be a travesty of justice.

He literally said, depending on how one interpreted the law (without stretching or breaking the truth, he could have proven everything from the Defendant owing over 1 MILLION DOLLARS, the the government owing the Defendant the same ($1m). Since the Defendant had pled guilty, he couldn't legitimately prove the latter (that would require a not-guilty plea), so he used the law to demonstrate that the Defendant owed a significantly lower amount then the government claimed, all by using the laws that the government had quoted... It's the vagueness of some laws, that make them subject to radical interpretations (poorly written laws), that really drives me nuts and explicitly drove me away from even considering the study of law...

Credit cards are pre-authorized when you arrive at the desk the same at a rental card counter and I do not believe that they hold these pre-authorizations.

To paraphrase, never attribute to malice what could be explained by incompetence. As a former Hertz IT employee I can tell you that incompetence is most likely the reason they couldn't find the data they were asked for, at least at first. They have gone through a lot of personnel changes as a result of outsourcing much of their IT infrastructure and support. Replacing intelligent, competent, and very experienced IT personnel with people from overseas that couldn't care less about being good employees has consequences.

The Federal government has subpoenas ignored all of the time by federal employees, the house the senate, other agencies and no one is held accountable. Accountability is the biggest thing that our local, state and federal governments need! Until they are held accountable and I mean really accountable for their actions, all will continue to be lost.
The receipt would of had his signature and they require you to show ID when renting, these added actions would be proof he didn't have someone else using his card.
I ignored several court orders for jury duty until one specifically stated that since their records indicated several "failures to appear", a failure to appear on (specific date, time and place) " will result in a warrant for my arrest and a charge of contempt.". I didn't ignore that one. I was surprised to learn that they do keep track of a person's response to jury duty notices and they will enforce them if they go unanswered. When I informed my employer, he told me that he needed me at work and started to explain to me that nothing would happen from ignoring it. He had never seen the information on the back of the notices explaining the law for "employers" either. They don't have to pay employees that have jury duty, but they must allow the time off or be liable. Now this was an about jury duty and I was released by noon and never assigned to a jury. Ignoring a court order resulting in a man being convicted and going to jail might have someone serving time on their own case.

"Reasonable doubt" fyi. And yes, you're completely correct, though I'll point out that the possibility of the evidence existing should have sufficed as a reasonable doubt, it should have been incumbent on the DA to prove it did not exist. I'm wondering if there is more to this and Hertz said it didn't exist at some point, but it's not like juries don't often use preponderance of the evidence standards when they are supposed to use reasonable doubt standards... some courts seem to encourage it, in fact (which is why I basically never vote for a judge who was a former prosecutor or cop).

My trainer and I were working a beat area that includes the city, district and federal district courts buildings. The district court called the station and requested an officer to come down to the courtroom and provided us with the bench warrant, and his location... (he didn't return after lunch), he was on the board of directors for a large corporation and was in a board meeting when we arrived. He was placed in handcuffs in the boardroom and transported directly before the court... The judge ripped him a new one because his excuse was that he had a board meeting, blah, blah blah, and he was an important person Yada, Yada, Yada... It really didn't go well for him. We were excused pretty quickly, so I don't know what happened... But the walls of the courthouse told us he was held in contempt for a few hours because he decided to get a huge attitude with the judge. I honestly wish I could have seen it.

Defendant produces the CC transaction receat(IE not the hertz one). The prosecutor will state that it could be someone else that used it. Now if the defendant's lawyer is doing his job, he will establish that the transaction report lines up with his client''s alibi under oath, and the prosecutor's claim that someone else could have made the transaction is an unsubstantiated speculation. Now as someone who occasionally sees a jury duty notice, I'd consider that a shift of the burden of proof back to the prosecutor where it always belongs to produce something more then a speculative "what if?" statement.
