A Pennsylvania State Police trooper is facing charges of felony strangulation and false imprisonment after he allegedly detained his ex-girlfriend in a 'wrestling-style hold' and committed her to a mental health facility under phony claims.

Ronald Keith Davis, 37, was arrested on September 21. He is accused of abusing his authority to have his girlfriend of four months imprisoned in a medical facility against her will.

The cop, who is married with children, petitioned for an involuntary mental health commitment for the woman after he alleged that she was suicidal, according to an affidavit of probable cause.

That was pretty dirty of him to manipulate the mental health law.that way.

I guess, he was buying time to flee?

It would not be the first time the mental health laws were abused. Not as often as PFA's are issued without justification, but too often.

I hope she acted to have that expunged within the short time frame where that's possible. Sounds like she's really going to need a gun.

A slap on the wrist should do it. We need to consider his service to the community.

I think it is totally irresponsible for the dailymail to post her pictures and her full name.

The ex-girlfriend was involuntarily committed for five days and did not display any suicidal thoughts during that time, according to medical personnel.

She was released on Aug. 26 and was subsequently interviewed by police.

Once cops saw an exchange of messages between the pair, they didn*t think there was cause to force her into treatment, police said.

Her purported *suicidal* messages that Davis used against her appeared to be hypothetical in nature and part of a larger argument over their deteriorating relationship, authorities said.

*While Trooper Davis provided text messages from [the victim] * and purported them to be suicidal, he failed to provide the full context of those messages,* the affidavit alleged. *In fact, the text messages were the culmination of a larger, domestic dispute between he and the victim. Taken in context, the texts revealed her frustration with Trooper Davis and his controlling behavior * not a true desire to harm herself.*

It's definitely time for that gal to lawyer up and sock it to that facility if she hasn't already!

IMO his immunity is not qualified in this instance. No, not this time.
