(1,937 posts)this is what i reacted to too (did i get those in the right order?..sound like a choo choo heh)
I've been on the receiving end of US marshals 2 times
both times i was 'innocent'
both times were actually about my land lord (he also owned dogs....'bull mastif')
he was on parole, i 2nd hand rented a room a house he rented
i was in the yard..i got a m4/m16/ar15 aimed at me and they told me to 'control the dogs or i'll shoot' (look 1 pitbull, 1 mastiff, 7 puppies under 1 year...if anyone knows dogs...? that ain't happening) i could enter and leave, so could my roommates and the land lord, anyone else...iffy, it'd take a 'polite' introduction at the gate and even so any move on a 'tenant' would result in pack attack
then i got a 40 minute who are you, why are you here interrogation thing
---
next time they kicked in the doors i barely manage to stop the dogs from attacking (2) that were indoors
get butt stroked by a pistol whilst holding a mastiff choke collar in one hand and pit one in the other... then yelled at and threatened (once they find out i was (LPR)greencard) to have it revoked also they claimed right to search a locked premise only accessible to me (my room (even landlord didn't have key to my room)) i asked for lawyer/judge on that
the reply to that request is called 5 finger sandwich where i come from
i wouldn't give them the keys and they actually gave up (meaning...they were wrong and i was right)
Marshals may be nice to some and i know some decent ones, i also have met enough leo's and Marshals, unless you want to do mafia collections..not the debt collectors you want
those guys are not polite when they go in
