The owner of a Native American jewelry store in Winslow who was cited for allegedly violating Gov. Doug Ducey’s executive order shuttering nonessential businesses during the early days of the COVID-19 crisis won his case after the Navajo County attorney dismissed the charge against him.
Navajo County Attorney Brad Carlyon informed Daniel Mazon on Wednesday that he was dismissing the charge against him, according to documents Mazon’s son posted on Facebook. Mazon faced a misdemeanor charge of operating a business in violation of the governor’s stay-at-home order.
“We Won! Charges have been dropped but not without a fight,” Joshua Mazon wrote on Facebook on Thursday, decrying Carlyon, a Democrat, as “the face of corrupt authoritarian government and future communism.”
Daniel Mazon declined to comment to the Arizona Mirror. Carlyon could not immediately be reached for comment.
