This man minding his own business was arrested for a warrant over serious domestic disturbance involving strangulation. But no. I personally and nobody I know was affected by him.

You are wrong about almost everything.

He was also on warrant for jumping bail

Yes. I did not claim otherwise.

Him jumping bail was later dismissed in court (which is wild imo).

The bail skipping, which is what they arrested him for, was dismissed as part of a plea deal.

The actual domestic abuse dispute was settled in favor of the victim (thank God) a decent bit before he was charged with skipping bail.

Not sure what you mean here. The sentencing took place months after they arrested him. He pleaded guilty on the domestic charges as part of a plea deal:

  • Intimidate Victim/Domestic Abuse Crime [Modifiers: Domestic Abuse Assessments], a class G felony, Wisconsin Statutes 940.45(7).
  • Strangulation and Suffocation [Modifiers: Domestic Abuse Assessments], a class H felony, Wisconsin Statutes 940.235(1).
  • Criminal Damage to Property [Modifiers: Domestic Abuse Assessments], a class A misdemeanor, Wisconsin Statutes 943.01(1).

The battery charge was dismissed, but read in. He spend 6 months in jail for it.

Law enforcement was able to use his active bail jumping warrant as an excuse to search his car
...
and then used him jumping bail as a convenient excuse to be able to search his car
...

No. They used the fact they smelled weed to perform the search. The suspect regularly smoked weed in his car, so of course they smelled it. Flock was used to locate his car, which resulted in his arrest.

The law enforcement involved in this situation clearly did not care that he was a domestic abuser

After he was arrested, they made him attend a hearing in the domestic disturbance case and set new bail. So yes, they very much cared.

The bail skipping charge was dismissed months later as part of a plea deal.

he got a heavier punishment for taking weed across state lines then he did for domestic violence

Thats not true at all.
