Constable Tricia Mezzacappa, following her failure to appear for trial on October 6th was picked up on a bench warrant, and was provided an overnight stay at Lehigh County’s Steel Bar Hotel, before being transferred to Northampton County.
Somebody may have tipped off the authorities to her whereabouts. It was said she may have been attending a Trump rally.
Confirmed, is she’s now free to continue driving down her life’s dark path after posting 10 percent cash, on a new bail of $1,000.
Her “proof,” she posted on her Facebook page, of her not needing to be at her trial on October 6th, apparently fell short in front of Judge Paula A. Roscioli, when Mezzacappa appeared before her.
Judge Roscioli set the new monetary bail, to replace the unsecured $5000 bail that was revoked on October 8th.
Mezzacappa is still facing trial after being charged with filing a false police report with the PSP, following her call to them back in February of 2019. She claimed a black man pointed a gun at her head as she was parking her car, but she was able to draw her weapon and fire off a shot, missing her alleged assailant.

Updated 11/9 to reflect new information regarding Mezzacappa’s next scheduled court appearance and a correction regarding her stay in Lehigh County.
