Description
On January 29, 1974, the plaintiff John Henry Eans was working as an employee of Grocers Supply, Co., Inc., a wholesale food supplier, at its frozen food locker. The plaintiff had another job during the daytime at the Riverside Animal Hospital, and he worked for Grocers Supply from 9:30 P.M. to about 5:30 A.M. On the night in question, he had reported to his job at Grocers Supply and parked his car in the company lot outside a security fence. After presenting his identification badge at the guard gate, he entered the plant, and walked to the locker area where he put on insulated clothing to begin his work in the frozen food locker. About 4:30 A.M. he was summoned to the shipping area by a loud speaker and was met there by his supervisor, Pinkston Bell, and other company employees. He then walked with Bell to the main guard gate where he was met by Sergeant D.D. Baker, a City of Houston police officer privately employed by Global Security, Inc. to advise Grocers Supply on security matters, and by Ronald Kruise, a former police officer who was employed by Grocers Supply as its security supervisor. The plaintiff proceeded with this group to the parking lot where, upon opening the trunk of his vehicle, a package of luncheon meat and a package of frozen strawberries were found. Sergeant Baker placed the plaintiff under arrest and caused him to be jailed and subsequently charged with misdemeanor theft. The original theft action was later dismissed upon the failure of the security supervisor Kruise to appear as the complaining witness; however, the theft charge was subsequently reinstituted against the plaintiff after Grocers Supply wrote a letter to the prosecuting attorney explaining why Kruise had failed to appear and testify at the first trial. The second action also terminated in a dismissal, and the plaintiff then brought this suit for malicious prosecution against Grocers Supply, Global Security, Inc., and D.D. Baker.
