Date & Time of Incident(s): 2nd/MAR/2026 16:34
Charge(s):
  • GM19 - Face Concealment (b), VF01 - Evading an Officer, GM14 - Obstruction of Justice
Narrative:
While driving my red Buffalo STX around on the radio, I hear that my friends are being robbed by members of Empire. And I also found one of my friends dead on the side of the road just next to the freeway on Lower Pillbox. My car was stolen; it was a black monstrosity, LP UFXU8OXR. The officer at the time said, "Okay, we will be on the lookout for it," and checked my record and was like, "You don't have any warrants, just tickets." I said okay and left. I got my car fixed and upgraded at Benny's and was driving down the road, did a U-turn, and got pulled over by the same Red STX Blue outfit. Just like the first time, I spoke with PD Complyed, got the ticket, checked my GPS, and found my car. It was wrecked and abandoned. I took it to Benny's, got a fix, and then went to park my red STX. I had a girl with me the entire time whose name I won't share at this time. As she took the red car to parking, I pulled up next to a sheriff and said, "Hey, I have found my car; please take the bolo down." I was then pulled over and detained, where they unlawfully searched my car, claiming I was the fat person in purple. They later on said that at the scene where whatever crime happened, a gang member from Bratva (Erin Walker) stated that the fat person in purple was Ghost Kamado. And with that info from a criminal, I was arrested and taken to MRPD, where they found clothing in the car and forced me to change into it. and was like, "Oh, he has the same helmet and now the same clothes on," and proceeded to have PD arrest me for the following charges. I requested a supervisor; I was told no, nobody is on shift. I requested the highest-ranking unit. They said it was a woman named Dymond. I requested and waited, and they said no, she's not coming. The officer who charged me was unknown, but I know one of their names was Yuri. I was informed by Doc that y'all could get the person's info from the MDC on who charged me. But the fact they are taking a known criminal's word at face value and arresting me for it is absurd. Time runs down. I informed the cops of my car being stolen in my red STX while wearing blue. -20 mins later I get pulled over in the red STX wearing blue Comply. Get a ticket. 10 mins later I find the abandoned car and inform SD, and I then get arrested by PD. PD Also Stole my clothes an forced me to keep a Rival groups Colors on instead of giving me back my Original blue outfit.



I, Ghost Kamado, hereby affirm that all information provided above is true and correct to the best of my knowledge, and understand that knowingly providing false information could result in additional charges and/or fines. (( I affirm that all information submitted has been obtained via In-Character means. ))

        02/MAR Incident Report by Charles Williams
        21-A-11 responded to a pursuit involving a stolen Sheriff’s Department cruiser. An individual wearing a black puffer jacket and a doll mask stole a Buffalo from the Sheriff’s Department while deputies were attempting to pick up an evidence bag. A pursuit was initiated. The stolen vehicle was eventually recovered; however, the suspect was picked up by a blue Elegy Retro Custom and fled the scene.

        Before the suspect was able to fully escape, the deputy who reported their cruiser stolen advised that a black Monstrociti was also involved. The deputy stated the Monstrociti swiped the evidence bag before they could retrieve it, actively assisting the individual who stole the SD Buffalo.

        I ran the license plate UFXU8OXR, which returned to Ghost Kamado. Bodycam footage was reviewed, and images were obtained of the black Monstrociti (LP# UFXU8OXR) involved in the incident. The Monstrociti successfully evaded officers at that time.

        Approximately 15–20 minutes after the pursuit was terminated on the black Monstrociti, SD Charlie Lutte (118A) conducted a traffic stop at Legion Square on a black Monstrociti matching the earlier BOLO. The registered owner, Ghost Kamado, was detained for investigation.

        A search of the Monstrociti recovered clothing matching the exact description of what the suspect was seen wearing when stealing the evidence bag from SD Charlie Lutte, and during the earlier evasion. Based on the totality of the circumstances, Officer Knight elected to take custody of the arrest. Ghost Kamado was charged with Obstruction of Justice, Evading an Officer, and Face Concealment (B).

ISSUANCE OF VERDICT

IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF SAN ANDREAS

The State of San Andreas v. Ghost Kamado
#26-BT-0026

A decision was reached in the above case on the 5th day of April, 2026.


Facts

  • An officer stated an individual in a black Monstrociti, along with others, was involved in the theft of an "evidence bag" during a subsequent theft of a Sheriff's Department cruiser.
  • The same vehicle was found elsewhere at least 15-20 minutes later, with the defendant driving, and they were detained.
  • The same type of clothes worn by the individual in the initial incident were found when the vehicle was searched.

Arguments From Either Side

The prosecution contends that the vehicle and the person seen taking an "evidence bag" were part of a group that also interfered while others stole a police vehicle. They later identified the suspects by matching a license plate, and the defendant's clothing in the vehicle matched that of the person involved in the earlier incident, which strengthens the case against the defendant.

The defense argues that, given the time gap between the Monstrociti being lost and found again, and the receipt of a ticket at the time of the incident, proves they could not be involved. They argue they had a conversation with officers at a different location about the theft of their Monstrociti, and that the events involving their vehicle occurred without their knowledge. Since the defendant reported his vehicle as stolen, the officers lost the vehicle for a significant time; his timestamp on a ticket provides an alibi; and they finally informed deputies when it was found, there is no possibility they could have been involved in this incident.

Verdict

The Court finds that the vehicle observed at the initial scene, where a bag belonging to a Sheriff’s Deputy was taken, was subsequently stopped approximately fifteen to twenty minutes later for investigative purposes. Based on the officers’ observations at that scene, the Court concludes that probable cause existed to justify the investigative stop of the defendant.

However, upon review of the evidence presented by the Prosecution, the nature and extent of the Monstrociti’s involvement is unclear. The report establishes, at most, that an individual retrieved a bag that did not belong to them. There is insufficient evidence to demonstrate that any subsequent actions by those involved constituted willful flight or an attempt to elude pursuing law enforcement, particularly given the ambiguity of the arrest report and the absence of corroborating evidence.

The Court notes the ambiguous "pursuit" referenced in the arrest report that was "terminated." The ambiguity arises from questions about when or where the vehicle was lost, whether it was actively fleeing, or whether it was merely searched for after a review of body camera footage. The arrest report also introduces a meaningful time gap during which additional intervening events could have occurred, with or without the defendant’s knowledge. Furthermore, while the defendant advances a narrative that cannot be proven by evidence, it carries circumstantial weight given the lack of any reference to questioning or statements included in the Prosecution's evidence.

It is noted that the only items recovered from the vehicle consisted of matching clothing. Such items in the vehicle do not alone establish the defendant’s knowledge of or connection to any criminal activity. Just as significant is the absence of the referenced “evidence bag” or any other forensic evidence linking the defendant to the initial incident.

Additionally, the Court notes that the evidentiary support is materially deficient. Aside from the departments' ambiguous arrest report, even when referenced, there is a notable absence of forensic evidence, body camera footage, witness statements, or other competent evidence to meet the burden of proof required by this court. This lack of corroborating evidence, therefore, undermines the reliability of the Prosecution’s case.

It is with the above considerations that I issue the following verdict:
  • On the count of GM19 - Face Concealment (b), I find the defendant, Ghost Kamado, not guilty.
  • On the count of VF01 - Evading an Officer, I find the defendant, Ghost Kamado, not guilty.
  • On the count of GM14 - Obstruction of Justice, I find the defendant, Ghost Kamado, not guilty.
The defendant has made their way to City Hall to have their record amended and to have the $39,500 payment for fines, time, and other expenses/inconveniences incurred from the contested charges returned to them.
