Hearing delayed for 3 accused of running bogus Masonic police department

The arraignment for three people accused of operating the bogus Masonic Fraternal Police Department – an ancient police force that claimed to operate in 33 states and Mexico – was delayed Tuesday until next month.

The trio’s appearance in a Los Angeles County Superior Court on Tuesday was the first time they had been together since being charged in May. Their arraignment was delayed until July 29.

Tonette Hayes, Brandon Kiel and David Henry face misdemeanor charges of falsely representing themselves as police officers, according to the criminal complaint filed by Los Angeles County prosecutors. All three were released from jail after posting bond.
