Shame on the Virginia Beach Police for the wrongful arrest. 

VBPD completes internal investigation into arrest of Navy wife

[Tony]

There is conflicting information coming from the Virginia Beach Police Department about the wrongful arrest of a Navy wife, so I'll be posting any updates that are released to the media. It originally started with an arrest at JEB Little Creek-Fort Story by Navy police. 

Some of the information includes:

• VBPD stated that the name was the same but a different middle initial (shouldn't they have dug deeper.)
• VBPD referred to the name difference as an "alias."
• VBPD stated that the birthday was the same except a slight different in the year. (try applying for something with a slight different in your birth date.)
• VBPD did not originally release the fact that they already had a mugshot picture of the real person that was wanted.
• The Magistrate said there was an issue with the fingerprints but the VBPD states that there is not and issue with the fingerprints.

My concern: How would you like to go through the gate of a Navy base only to be arrested for someone else's crime?

This is very irritating because this should not have happened to this Navy spouse. This should not be happening to active, reserve, retired or dependents. The middle name and birthday are different and they had a mugshot of the person who is wanted.
