“John Doe”
STAFF REPORT
The Hays County Sheriff’s Office is asking the public’s assistance in determining the identity of an unknown arrestee.
On June 22, around 11 a.m. Texas State University Police (UPD) arrested an individual who refused to give his name to UPD officers. He was then arrested and charged with failure to identify, a class B misdemeanor.
The individual was booked into the Hays County Jail under a “John Doe” identity, where he still refuses to divulge his identity. His bond has been set at $2,500. Hays County has exhausted all possible resources to determine his identity and is now asking for the public’s assistance.
The individual is a white male, approximately 40 years old, five feet nine inches tall, weighing approximately 180 pounds.
If anyone has any information on the individual or his identity, contact the Hays County Sheriff’s Office at (512) 393-7800.
How weird… but how long can you hold someone for failure to identify?
If he doesn’t post bail, until the trial. Class B misdemeanor.
It seems to me that if he has no fingerprint records or anything else, he shouldn’t be held. Does he have amnesia?
Are they only holding him becasue he did not give them his name or did he do something wrong?
They won’t say. Seems rather odd.
