Homeless Man Arrested for Charging Phone in Park

Darren Kersey, 28, was charged with theft of utilities after Sarasota Police Sgt. Anthony Frangioni spotted him charging his phone at about 9:20 p.m. Sunday. Unable to come up with the $500 bail for the misdemeanor, Kersey had no choice but to stay in jail.
Sarasota Police Sgt. Anthony Frangioni is yet another in a long line of petty-tyrants exercising their "authority" in the name of the state.
