Cited to Support

Lyle C. May cites the testimony of Asheville Police Department Officer Darren Moore concerning the events leading from his investigative detention to his formal arrest. Officer Moore continued detaining May while receiving additional information from dispatch and other law enforcement officers, ultimately placing him under formal arrest.

May relies upon this testimony to support his argument that his detention evolved into a formal arrest only after Officer Moore received additional information concerning the suspect and the crime scene. This testimony is cited to establish the sequence of events surrounding May's detention, questioning, and arrest that forms part of the factual basis for Claim I.
