On easter sunday 2007 multiple units of the alexandria, louisiana police department descended upon the home of robert and doris moses located on lisa street in alexandria.
neither mr. or mrs. moses where the target of the police departments attention but rather a man who mr. moses had employed and who resided in an outbuilding on the moses' property. this person was in jail on a burglary charge and the police wanted to search the outbuilding that he had been residing in for stolen things. ms. moses readily consented for the police to search the outbuilding.during the course of their 'investigation' the police checked the license plates of all the vehicles parked in the moses driveway and discovered that Mr. Robert Moses had several minor misdemeanor warrants outstanding. by minor, we mean for instance, one warrant was for fishing without a license. The apd then asked Mrs. Moses for permission to enter the family home to search for mr. moses and she denied that request. the police then called the duty rapides parish assistant district attorney who instructed the police department not to enter the family home.

During the course of all this, Mrs. Moses got into her car and left to attend easter sunday services at her church. a police car that had been blocking her driveway was moved by a policeman to allow her to exit. The video tells the story of what happened next. officer rachal had no reason (probable cause) to pull ms. moses over the first place much less drag her from her car and taser her. even if officer rachal did have probable cause why did he just moments earlier allow her to leave her home? The judge and the city attorney agreed and threw all the charges against ms. moses out. according to ms. moses, before her court date she went to the police station to file a complaint against officer rachal but was intimidated into not doing so. she said that the police officer she talked to insinuated that an investigation into the incident could result in even more charges being filed against her. (see how they operate?)
