Jennifer Heath Box is suing Broward County and the Broward Sheriff’s Office after a wrongful arrest on December 24, 2022, at Port Everglades. Mistaken for another woman with a similar name, Box was detained for three days on a child endangerment warrant despite numerous discrepancies in age, height, and other identifiers. Her attorneys argue that the differences between Box and the actual suspect were obvious and should have prevented the arrest. The Broward Sheriff’s Office defended the arrest, claiming it was based on information from U.S. Customs and Harris County, Texas. Box describes the experience as humiliating and degrading, and states it has had long-lasting emotional impacts. She has filed a federal lawsuit seeking accountability for the wrongful arrest.
