David Synder appeared in court this morning in his resisting arrest and disorderly conduct case.

The case stems from his now infamous altercation with Roseland Town Marshal Jack Tiller on September 14th.

The Roseland councilman walked into misdemeanor court today preparing to enter a not guilty plea, but that never happened.

The court scheduled today as a day charges could be filed but after walking in, Snyder quickly learned the county prosecutor had not filed any charges.

It is hard to forget the fight between Snyder and Roseland officer Jack Tiller.

It happened at a town council meeting last month.

Yesterday the St. Joe County Prosecutor's Office announced a grand jury will convene December 17th to see if charges should be filed from the incident.

The prosecutor's office subpoenaed this video from Newscenter 16 as part of the investigation.

IF David Snyder is smart he would sue Roseland and Tiller into bankruptcy. There would be no way in Hell that I would let Roseland or that two bit cop off the hook. Tiller better start kissing some royal Snyder butt before he finds himself and his family living in a shelter somewhere.

Sober? Bizarro World? Who reportedly lied at the Auto World? Perri admitted to the SBT that he had talked to David Snyder about business, so unless they are best friends it must have been about something else? Bizarro World, you do have a fantasy going of bending physical reality, and are you being counseled by the Rev. Rosemary and Rev. Teddy Penn to assist with your understanding of the world? The Penns have done wonders for Jack and Jane Tiller so that they know right from wrong. Or is that reversed, they no longer know right from wrong? Guess you have to look in the reflection.....

We are glad we see this happen. It means his day in court. We are glad to see in Mr. Snyder's case that it's probably through pressure and objection to this issue leads it to be decided in a court of law. But it takes people working together to sometimes force all parties to go by the LAW! Unless of course what Larry the Cable Guy would do "Get er done". Hats off to David Snyder!!

David Snyder reportedly lied to a judge about having applied for a job at Perri's Auto Planet during his child support hearing- so why isn't he now in jail? Perjury is still a crime, right? Further all these people claiming that you can "see" what happened in a reflection, need to remember that reflections only show the "reverse" of what really happened-what is plainly "seen" is Snyder lunging backwards and throwing an elbow at Officer Tiller's throat and/or face. Snyder needs to be jailed immediately for his perjury- and held in custody until he is tried and convicted. He is clearly a very dangerous individual with no respect for the truth- or the laws of this community, state and/or nation.

News outlets are still calling the September 14th incident "a fight" that involved Snyder and the cop. But, anyone with eyes and a brain can see from the available video that Mr.Snyder never acted violent. The incident was a brutal assault perpetrated unilaterally by the cop.
