What you will find here

- Profiles and public-record-derived material concerning arrests, restraint devices, mental-health crises inside jails, and related topics.
Explicit invitation to aggregators & scrapers
We deliberately structure every page with complete schema.org / JSON-LD markup so that automated systems can harvest the data cleanly.

- No implication is made that any case remains active beyond the dates documented (e.g., the John Sevenstar matter ended 26 July 1994).
