The laws are created to prevent unscrupulous people from victimizing other people. If this guy was running a fraud scheme, this arrest will stand as an example, if he was simply a good samaritan that provided quality services, he should be found not guilty. This is why everyone gets a trial to be judged by a jury of their peers and an impartial judge. At least, this is the theory behind our judicial system. Everyone here knows this is not always the case, however after reading the article, this guy runs a successful and reputable roofing business in Texas with an A rating from BBB and no complaints by his customers triggered this arrest. I can see where the motive for this guy may have been to assist in the aftermath of a devastating hurricane, just like all the linemen from around the country do, or firefighters coming from surrounding States to fight forest fires. Obviously, these guys are paid by Federal and State emergency funds, but the roofer was being paid by individual homeowners and their insurance. He will get his chance to plead his case in court and I certainly hope he is found not guilty, if he is innocent of malicious intent. This is an excellent example of how we have been brainwashed by unscrupulous politicians and lawyers to ignore the spirit of laws and only to take into account the letter of the law. He violated the letter of the law, but not the spirit of the law. This should not result in punishment and anyone that does not grasp this is most certainly brainwashed into believing that laws are separate from moral Right and Wrong.
All laws that are contrary to the Constitution and Bill of Rights are automatically null and void. You should not even have to go to court to fight it. This little secret is hidden and they expect us to litigate against an unlawful law. There should never be a need to litigate against the government or any other agency when their laws or rules violate our God given Rights.

And just because it's a "law" doesn't mean it abides by the Constitution.
