That is sad, that a detective couldn't find out if the check was fake or not... Let alone they put him in jail before INVESTIGATING!!!! or not the check was fake... Keep in mind it was chase's own catchier''s check and their own employees cant tell the difference? what is wrong with that picture...

Seems to me your guilty until proven not guilty...

You would also think they would have checking measures like they do for counterfeit bills...

Big mistake by the bank! Even bigger by the police department. Maybe he'll own the bank and the police officer can spend a week in jail too! Sounds fair to me!
