Lonnie Laws – Beaver County Sheriff’s Office

Written by CBKN76

In 2022, Deputy Lonnie Laws was involved in an incident where he and Deputy Warren Woolsey allegedly violated the First Amendment rights of animal rights activists by threatening to cite them for their outreach efforts on a public sidewalk. The court found a substantial likelihood that the deputies violated the activists’ rights but denied a preliminary injunction due to the incident being isolated.

Why This Matters

By organizing this data, we can potentially demonstrate when officers were previously aware of laws they later claim ignorance of, challenging qualified immunity defenses and promoting accountability.
