the streets like he used to, sheriff easter is still not shielded from danger. go into pod 10. bed 18. john delaney was recently arrested for allegedly threatening his life. basically all they have is some news reporter saying that i said something about ak-47s and everything else. it seems like they re trying to make something out of nothing. delaney has pled not guilty and is awaiting trial. but today, hopes to bond out with the help of his brother, brendan. right now we got the money put together. let s get me out of here and let s move on. well, you got to promise me you got to keep your head on straight this time. hey, it s on straight, bro. so what, within the next hour or so you guys should be up here? yeah. ask your feelings about sheriff easter now? they ain t changed but i ll keep my distance. i ll let the attorneys handle it. a short time later, brendan and two other friends arrive with the bond money needed to get delaney out of jail.
altogether in this we have a little over three grand. the total is $5,000 but the bonds company will accept $3,000 now and the rest later. here s my business card. it s got his court date right here on the back. make sure he makes all of his court dates, because you re responsible for not just the first one but all of them until the case is finished. with the bond paid and the paperwork completed, delaney is a free man for now. [ bleep ]. [ bleep ]. when samuel wesson leaves jail, he doesn t think he will be a free man at all. he expects to be transferred to prison after pleading guilty to his ninth theft charge, and it s starting to wear on him. man, i ve had enough of this. i don t have any more chances. most of the people right now, they look at me and think i m 55 years old or so. i m 42.
he now continues to want to stand behind me with his hand on his gun and i feel threatened by that. following a confrontation with sheriff s deputies, john delaney allegedly issued a threat to the life of sedgwick county sheriff jeff easter. he was arrested soon after. but was able to bond out of jail a day later. [ bleep ]. that freedom was short-lived. you just get to a point to where it s you can t just keep fighting them. they just keep [ bleep ]. [ bleep ], [ bleep ]. when he was arrested for allegedly threatening sheriff easter, delaney was already on probation in nearby reno county for failing to register as a sex offender. because i have probation there, the minute they charged me here with a criminal threat it was a violation of my probation. so once they violated my probation, i have to go in front of the judge for that. lean up against the counter. put your right leg back towards me. because he lives locally, delaney was picked up by
for saying let s remove the sheriff from office, that s a criminal threat. how s it going? it s going. but that s not all delaney was alleged to have said. his problems began a day earlier when delaney obtained a court document he wrongfully believed could prevent his girlfriend from seeing her young children until she completed a drug program. i got time to make a phone call? then delaney, who is not their biological father, brought the form to the children s school in hopes of picking them up. that s when things began to unravel. i wasn t disrespectful with you. i didn t raise my voice to you. i can state my opinion. his brother recorded the encounter delaney had with the pair of sheriff s deputies in front of the school. this gentleman here has a problem with my past criminal history. they were summoned by school administrators. badge or no badge, he still has to show us common respect. i give you much respect until
