A woman has sued the Los Angeles Police Department and Airport Police after they mistook her for someone else and jailed her for 13 days.

In April 2021, Bethany K. Farber was on her way to Mexico to visit family when she was stopped by TSA officials, who told her there was a warrant for her arrest in Texas. Farber asked them several times to double-check, but they “completely blew” her off. “

They said, ‘Nope, Bethany Farber, we have you,'” Farber explained, ABC 7 News reports.

Her lawyer says that officials never tried to confirm her identity while she was being booked.

“Now what’s interesting, at the time Miss Farber is booked, the police do nothing to confirm whether or not this Bethany Farber is that Bethany Farber,” said Farber’s attorney Rodney Diggs. “This Bethany Farber, from what we understand, has an extensive criminal history. Her fingerprints are in the database.”

She ended up being held in Lynwood Women’s Jail without bail. After her family sent law enforcement and the district attorney in Texas photos and phone records, the prosecutor there responded. “She said, ‘Oh my God, we are so sorry, we will expedite this. We will get her out,'” Farber’s mother, Terry Brodie said, the news outlet reports. Farber was released from jail on April 28, 2021.

The entire situation was so stressful for her family that Farber says her grandmother suffered a stroke and later died. ABC 7 says the LAPD and LAX have declined to comment due to the case being pending litigation.

  The Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) has countered the BBC documentary on the late Temitope Babatunde Joshua, known as TB Joshua, founder of SCOAN. SCOAN described the documentary against TB Joshua as unfounded, and that the characters interviewed in the report were unknown to the church. The church, in a statement signed by its Public Affairs Director, Mr Dare Adejumo, said the statement was aimed at disabusing public minds from the report. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the BBC released a highly controversial and damning documentary on the late TB Joshua on Monday, accusing him of various crimes, including rape, against some members. SCOAN said, “BBC World Services investigative unit, code-named Africa Eye, came out this week with weird and strange episodes of atrocities against the late founder of SCOAN.” It said that to investigate and publish or broadcast reports was a central kernel of journalism, but to do so outside the ethics and fundamental principles

  The NBA has suspended former San Antonio Spurs guard  Joshua Primo   for four games   ... after it says it found he exposed his private parts to multiple women. The league announced the ban on Friday morning ... saying an investigation into the free agent revealed he had "engaged in inappropriate and offensive behavior." NBA officials called his actions "conduct detrimental to the league." They did, however, note that they "did not find evidence that he engaged in any sexual or other misconduct apart from these brief exposures." "Primo maintains that his conduct was not intentional," the league said.
