This is an interesting civil rights case for a criminal?

In April 2001 my friend committed a fraud and was sentenced to 6 months house arrest with a monitoring device (ankle bracelet). He cut it off. The police did not charge him for cutting it, and send him to the campgrounds. He walked off the campgrounds. The police did not charge him for escape. He was not sent to court, not attorney was assigned to him. The police shipped him to prison for a sentence for 5 years. For what? Plus 3 years probation and a 1 million dollar fine. Is this double jeopardy? Did the police violate the habeas corpus?
I went to the court with him today and looked for the court papers. The court papers only showed the 5 year sentence, but not anything before that, like the house arrest and the campgrounds. Were these papers hidden, because my friend wants to sue whoever arrested.
