The index table above has been assembled by a private citizen using official court records and both official and unofficial City records.  Only when the official records reproduced at the links above reflect that an incident or violation has occurred should it be relied upon as fact.   All other information included above has been checked carefully and is believed to be correct, but may not be.


Except where noted otherwise, the incidents listed above involve charges of overcrowding, or of the blocking of exits.  While we have not used the word "alleged" at every opportunity above, each person described herein is innocent until found guilty in a court of law.

Any police reports herein have been "redacted" twice - initially by the HBPD, and additionally by the webmaster of this website.  Residential addresses have been rounded to the nearest hundred (a.k.a.  "block number"), or where appropriate, redacted in their entirety.  If you are a party to one of the incidents documented herein and wish to request further redaction, please contact the webmaster.
