Erath County Sheriff Sued In False Imprisonment Case
Deputy U S Marshal served papers on Erath County Sheriff Dave Deaton and Mack Creswell and bondsmen in Fort Worth federal court over a $15 900 false imprisonment claim. The suit stems from the December arrest of M L Cox in Stephenville, mistaken for a Dallas suspect, leading to a disputed bail and jurisdiction. Cox, a nonresident from Georgia, filed from Elijay.
