There's a town in Kansas called Coffeeville. It's named after a guy named James A. Coffee.

But I want to tell you about three other people I met there. There's a guy, there's a lawyer,

and there's a judge.

The guy is named Truss Biggs, and the first time he was arrested, he was out hunting in 2008.

His son had been diagnosed with leukemia a year before, and Truss wanted to take him

out for some fresh air. So they went out to a grove, and they were looking for roosting doves,

and a game warden came through to check their hunting permits. Truss didn't have a hunting permit.

So the warden ran Truss' license, and he found that there was a warrant out for Truss' arrest.

Truss was shocked and confused.

I couldn't believe it. Why would I have a warrant for my arrest? I didn't do nothing wrong.

You know, that I thought of.

He didn't understand how he could have broken a law, or even when he might have had time to

break the law. He was working 70-hour weeks at a lumber yard and on construction sites.

And he had never been to jail before. And it wasn't until the game warden drove him over the county line

and got him to the courthouse that he was told that the arrest warrant was for failure to appear in

court for a hearing over unpaid medical debt. So Truss was booked.

I was scared to jail. I don't know, they just freaked me out, you know, because

we had to go in and strip down and they pitching clothes.

He was given an orange jumpsuit.

And asked me if I wanted to flip flop for shoes, and I looked at him.

It's just I want shoes in case I need to run.

And he was also told that he was going to have to pay $500 cash bail to get out.
