"PA State Trooper Faces Charges for Illegally Committing Ex-Girlfriend and Abuse of Power"

A Pennsylvania state trooper, Ronald Davis, had his ex-girlfriend, Michelle Perfanov, involuntarily committed to a mental health facility after showing colleagues her suicidal texts. However, Perfanov later revealed that she had sent the texts to elicit a reaction from Davis, not with the intention of taking her own life. Davis, who is married with children, has been charged with unlawful restraint, false imprisonment, and other charges. The text messages were part of a larger domestic dispute, and Perfanov's statements were found credible by the police. Davis was suspended without pay after charges were filed.
