Amazing. >> You guys are harassing me. >> You're not. >> Yeah, you are. >> You're blocking the uh elevator. >> Look at this. Look at this clown. Behind seemingly [music] peaceful doors, a series of unexpected events awaits to change every view of power and justice. >> Just trying to get some information about the city town slash town, right? Uh, it's just for a Madison public interest. >> Moments that seemed peaceful suddenly turned into an unexpectedly tense climax. A citizen with a camera in his hand made the whole building shake. And then what made the officials tremble? Hey. >> Hello, sir. >> How you doing? Good. >> Harassing staff now, huh? I heard it. They always come in and say, "Oh, he's harassing us because I asked simple basic questions about the city and town hall." >> Tense faces slam doors. A heated confrontation begins to brew. As the truth about public filming rights is challenged. >> Going to look around the building. Um, >> and taking pictures of what? >> The employees. The public information that I'm gathering. That's all. Who are you? Terry Hall. >> What's your position here, Terry? >> Is there a concern or >> Yeah, I just I'm uncomfortable with someone knowing the layout of the building and >> of a public building. >> Yeah, it's just out of all people have somebody that doesn't have business in the office. >> Who's to say I don't have business? Are you assuming? >> I got to get going. >> Hello. >> Hi. How are you? Director of finance. >> Yes. >> Okay. What are you financing? >> Nothing, I don't think. What are you doing? >> Uh, I'm just taking some pictures, video um around the building, getting some public information. >> That's all. >> And you are a resident or >> No, I'm not a resident. I'm a journalist. >> Independent. That's all. Just trying to get some information about the city town slash town, right? >> And what are you using that for? >> Uh, it's just for matters of public interest. Um, you know, to disseminate to the general public if they have any questions or concerns about the town or city. And that's all. Gotcha. >> Yeah. >> All right. And your name was Ann? >> Ann Marie. >> All right. Nice to meet you, Ann. You too. >> Thank you. >> Town manager. >> I am. >> City manager. Which one? >> Town manager. >> How you doing? >> Good. How are you? >> Good. Good. How are you? >> Good. >> Good. I'm just taking a tour of the building. >> Oh. >> Um getting some public information. Asking a couple basic questions. That's all. >> Good. >> I saw that she was had a little concern. >> Well, you got to understand, I mean, typically people don't come in video and town hall. >> You got cameras all over the place. Come on. >> Wow. Come on. >> Just in the entrance. >> The police showed up. The chief of police was there, too. But this wasn't a kidnapping or a violent incident. It was just a camera. So, what was really going on? >> Hey. >> Hello, sir. >> How you doing? Good. >> Harassing staff now, huh? >> What's going on today? >> Interesting. How you doing? Name catching book, please. >> Officer DL 1345. >> Awesome, ma'am. >> Officer Hubard 1321. >> Sergeant Dooz 472. >> Good to see you, Sergeant. >> What's going on? >> Nothing much. Okay. >> So, you're harassing some people up here. >> That's what they were told us. That's what they told us. >> Yeah. >> You want to break down the harassment level? >> I don't know. >> We don't know. >> Go figure it out. >> Come on. >> Yeah. Go do that. >> Do you even know who the caller is or? >> Not this time. >> Was it a panic alarm? >> No. >> That's good. It's good. >> So, you just want to record? >> Tell them don't ask him some basic questions, man. But they call it harassment these days when you record our government officials in the course of their duties. >> What's [music] your question? >> Just basic questions around the town and public information. I got a business card from the town manager. >> They don't like it, but that's tough. >> They have cameras all over the place. I don't call you guys for it. >> That's town hall. They have cameras. >> I have a camera. >> Yeah, more than they just call. I know. That's all. >> I understand. How you doing, man? Are we all set? Me and you? >> I'm just >> I know. I'm just saying >> like I know you didn't call. We had a very good conversation, me and the town manager, but your staff I I'm pretty sure just called the PD. So, you might want to talk to the staff and just get everybody rounded up and let them know what's going on here. >> What is going on? >> I'm taking pictures in video and I'm asking questions about basic town hall and city hall business. >> Okay, >> that's what I'm doing. >> Okay. >> They call it harassment. >> Well, I I said that's the call the call came in. >> I know how it came in. I had the radio. I heard it. They always come in and say, "Oh, he's harassing us because I asked simple basic questions about the city and town hall." And then they, you know, go apeshit and call you guys for a crutch. >> What's the badge you got on there? >> Yeah, I can read it to you. It says, "Shiny badges don't grant extra rights." >> Warnings, headshakes of refusal, and a chief of police suddenly losing his cool set off a tense climax that no one in the building could have seen coming. >> It came as a disturbance. >> Yeah, it usually does. or some type of whatever it is, recall, reinvestigate. >> Yeah, it depends on how you guys react to the call and then investigate. But as far as I'm concerned, no laws have been here been broken. I'm not here to break any laws. >> We don't and we don't know that until we talk to you. >> Yeah. And you're not the deciding authority either. We're just trying to talk. >> My camera is I'll fight it in court with my camera evidence. >> There's nothing to fight in court. We're [music] having a conversation. >> I'm willing to do so is what I'm telling you. If you try to trespass me, get me for disorderly conduct, I'll fight it in court all the way to the Supreme Court. >> Okay, that's your right. But we haven't even mentioned any of that. That's your person. >> I'm just I'm I'm telling you. I'm advising you. >> Yeah, >> I am. >> Yeah. Get your body cams. Of >> course. >> Yeah. >> Are you guys going to tell me that? You are you guys by law to tell you? >> We don't have to tell you that. >> Is it a policy? >> Yeah. >> It is a policy to tell the public that you're >> It's not It's always recorded. >> When we interact with the public, we record. >> Yeah. Yeah. No, we're >> not required to tell you that it's recorded. >> Well, some states and cities are required either by law or policy. So, that's why I'm asking you. >> Not not Connecticut. >> Really? Okay. >> Yeah. No. Okay. At least not our department. >> I mean, I think it's a good thing. >> We think it's a good thing, too. >> We think it's great. >> Depends on the officer. >> What do you mean? >> Depends on the officer if they like the accountability, you know, behind the the recording and the camera. >> No, we love it. >> I didn't say you didn't. I said some officers, >> huh? >> Don't like it. You mean >> they don't like it. And there's a reason for that. >> Oh, I haven't met anybody yet. I just said they don't like >> It's good. It's good. I have. >> Oh, I'm sorry. They mute it, you know, they delete it, all that stuff. >> We have no access to it. >> Do you have a business card? >> Uh, no. I mean, >> do you have one downstairs? >> Yeah, it's on the website. >> Just when things seemed to be about to get out of hand, an unexpected outcome occurred, causing all those in uniform to quietly leave in Walk of Shame. >> Enjoy your day, sir. >> You, too. You guys are dismissed. Thank you. >> Actually, I'll walk you guys out. Yeah, it's usually the other way around, but not today. Was that four or five offices for a camera? Amazing. >> Chief, if you have a business card, that would be great. >> Yeah. Don't. Sorry. >> You don't? All right. Enjoy the phone call, son. Citizens may sue public officials for violating their constitutional rights. Pursuant to 42 US Code SS1983, individuals/organizations are required to pay damages to the injured party. Violating police officers may be disciplined, have their licenses suspended, fired, or expelled depending on the policy of the agency/ police chief. The case illustrates the risk of calling the police without cause to suppress civil rights, potential violations of freedom of the press and freedom of speech. Up next, with just a camera, a citizen walked into the town hall and immediately ignited an unprecedented wave of tension. >> Yeah. Top flight security. Is it DPS? You got a name? Oh, now you don't want to talk to me. Just want to follow me around, babysit me. Want to hold my hand? >> You didn't want to be filmed, but he's right there. >> Want to hold my hand like I'm a child. >> Who you going to follow? You're going to follow me? Why? Cuz I got the mouth. Is that what you're blocking the uh elevator? Look [snorts] at this. Look at this clown. See you later. Hey, what's up? Oh, another security. >> Yeah. >> Oh, Jesus. What are you guys following me around for? You guys are harassing me. >> We're not harassing. >> Yeah, you are. >> We didn't say nothing to you. >> No, you following me around. I suggest you don't. >> I'm not doing anything. >> Yeah, you following me around. >> So scared of I mean, I went through security. No weapons on me. I have nothing. You know what I mean? What's a big deal? What was your name? >> You going down? After you. >> Oh, you can go after you. >> You want to play this game? Let's play. You ready? >> You're not going to touch me today. >> Hi. >> See you later. Oh, my first rodeo clown. I think you know better. >> Tense eyes, challenging words, and then each step followed closely like a shadow, opening up an unexpected confrontation. >> Oh, there they are. >> Can you do something with these? >> I'm here to talk to him. >> How you doing? I was actually going to go downstairs and talk to you guys cuz he just told me that you were here and like I didn't see that they were coming. Yes. You're in a publicly building filming areas that are >> Don't surround me. Not happening. >> Get Don't flank me. Don't Don't Don't Come over here. Come over here. Don't flank me. >> I appreciate it. >> You're in a public building reporting areas that are >> publicly accessible. >> You're not going in any restricted. >> I would never do so. >> Okay. You're following all the policies of building >> 100% the law. >> Then then that's fine. Obviously, you make people nervous. That's that's what happens. >> I could say the same thing about their cameras. You know what I You're right. >> Actually, I was about to call you guys. >> Okay, that's what I'm that's what I'm explaining to the people here. >> I appreciate that. >> Okay. I I know >> you're right. >> Hey, hey, hey. >> Come over here. Over here. >> And And that's why I came. I'm a supervisor. I'm Sergeant War. >> Awesome. I was going to ask you, do you have a badge number? >> Uh 42. >> 42. Pretty much go by name. >> Yeah. Yeah. No, I appreciate it. You guys body counts. >> Yep. >> All rolling. Everybody's hot. >> Everybody's hot. That's the red light. Cool, man. So, >> you got a business card? >> I do not. >> You don't. Supervisor don't have a business card. You seem you seem pretty chill. >> I appreciate your demeanor. Look, I I I'm going to give you the same respect, okay, that you give me where we're going. We had no idea because I've never been here before. So, I asked them I said, "Look, I'm just going to go around the building, do some public records requests, get some pamphlets, >> do you know, whatever else." And they started following us and I told them, "I don't need a babysitter. I'm not here. I'm not armed. I went through security. What's the problem?" So they, you know, they observe me getting records and and sub being respectful to the staff and >> they got, you know, their security and they're they're looking out for the safety of the people here. >> But after 10, 15, 20 minutes. Come on. I mean, they got cameras. They could follow us on the cameras. They're harassing us at that point. And I told him I was going to call the PD to get you here to stop having them harass. In the blink of an eye, an ambiguous phone call brought a whole team of uniformed people to appear one after another, opening up a tense climax that no one could have expected. >> Awesome. >> And patrol. >> Patrol rank. >> I work for Wington Police Department. >> Yeah, but your rank is just patrol. >> I work for police department. >> Okay, sir. Name badge number six. And you're a supervisor or just patrol? Okay. Go ahead. Sorry. Hey, give me a call. >> Let him talk on the radio real quick. >> How you doing? Can I have your name badge number? >> Yeah, you can get everyone's name. >> That's all I just for the record. >> Badge 16.

They're all set with me. We're good. We got a sergeant here. He's very professional. >> I'm dealing with >> uh You're not dealing with anything. You're dealing with me. >> Let's get that straight. No, we're not. No, we're not. Don't lie to them. Don't lie. >> All right. See, now he's showing his true colors. We're trying to get a rise. >> I I said your first amendment auditors. >> I don't know. Who said that? Why are you putting me in a category? What if I'm just a normal Joemo citizen? >> Maybe you're normal. >> I am normal >> regardless. Don't don't don't c don't categorize people. >> I just need his name and badge number and we'll be on our way and I'll walk you guys out. >> Which one? >> This gentleman. Can I have your name badge number, please? >> Nameg. >> Thank you, sir. I appreciate it. >> Amidst tense gazes, a heated confrontation broke out as demands for transparency arose, forcing everyone to reveal their identities. >> Look at this. All right, we can clear up. >> He's he's he's yelling at our employee. >> No, I'm not. Stop lying. >> Not you. I'm not talking to you. >> Okay. You're talking to me right now. >> Calm down. >> My employees are upset. >> Oh, well, I'm upset your cameras are on me, too. But you know what? That's too bad, isn't it? Shut them off and I'll shut mine off. >> Clear up. >> Are you the supervisor of security? >> Yes, I am. >> You are. >> Give me a second. I'm going to come out and I'd like to talk to you about about just everything. Okay. >> You don't have to. >> You don't have to, but it's professional. >> You don't have to. To be honest, I suggest you don't because you're a horrible, horrible supervisor. >> Is your partner still up there? >> I have no idea. >> I don't control him, man. He's his own. >> You know what I mean? >> Well, like I said, >> like I said, um, as soon as you guys leave and clear out, I'll be out of here probably five, maybe 10 minutes, >> if that. Oh, I I know. I understand. But I just like I told the sergeant, I don't want them thinking just because they called the police that now I'm being kicked out. Not happening. I need to prove my point. Sorry. >> They closed the the security button again upstairs for me. >> Oh, yeah. >> Yeah. In the library. >> You guys at least have a first name. >> No. >> Right. Okay. >> Yeah. Right here. >> No. I I I like my fourth amendment, man. >> So, >> all right. >> All set. >> Ladies, gentlemen, >> in that fateful moment, all eyes turned to the exit where a bitter retreat was taking place in a suffocating silence. The incident exposed the dangers of abuse of power, lack of transparency, and violation of constitutional rights in public agencies. When power is abused for petty purposes, society needs to wake up and speak out because today's silence can become a dangerous precedent for tomorrow's freedom.

Just a seemingly ordinary conversation, but moments later, the atmosphere [music] at the police station shifted 180°. For the fourth time, you are free to leave, sir. >> Cool. >> We have work to do. All right. >> So, I'm asking you again to move to the public sidewalk or you'll be arrested for trespassing. >> I'll be arrested for trespassing. >> Vague demands, unconvincing reasons, and then a threat of arrest echoes. Did the citizen truly cross the line of the law or were they being blatantly oppressed? >> But you said there's nothing restricting me from not being here. >> That's not what I said. That's that's exactly what you said. >> And for the fourth time, you are free to leave, sir. >> Cool. >> We have work to do. >> I appreciate it. I mean, you're free to leave, too, man.

It's highly suspicious. >> But is it illegal? >> No. >> Okay. Now, >> when the truth is revealed, the police themselves admitted something that left viewers in shock. The entire area was completely legal to film. >> You have a right to be here, >> right? >> But when you're looking into vehicles, whether it's patrol vehicles or personal vehicles, suspicious activity, behavior that could be tampering with a vehicle, burgling a vehicle, or stealing a vehicle. >> Just inter I just got a question. I just got a quick question. I'll let you continue, but I got a quick question. >> But you just said none of that was illegal, right? >> You go ahead. >> What? You looking into vehicles is a reasonable suspicion to detain you to find out what you're doing. >> Explain to me, please what reasonable suspicion is? >> Looking into vehicles that are not your own. >> Okay. But remember, you have to have >> where >> I absolutely was looking into the garage. And I have video of it to prove it. >> What's that? >> I absolutely was. I absolutely was and I did it on camera.

And now remember >> into vehicles is in an area where you have no business or is >> I've been looking around recording and they've seen me recording suspicion >> and they've seen me recording taking pictures. They see me recording. Now when you walked up [music] and you said that the issue wasn't looking into vehicles and and burglary. The issue was off our property. This isn't our your area. You can't be here. That was the issue. >> I got arrested for what? >> Getting detained. >> I got arrest. No camera bud. You said arrested. Remember recording the whole time for trespassing. >> Released in silence, but the consequences are far from over. A civil lawsuit may be looming ahead and the image of the police force stands before a storm of fierce criticism. >> Having a civil conversation, just tried to have a regular one and this sergeant escalated it like this because I said I wasn't going to leave. Wouldn't let me talk. Said I'm not going to leave. Tried to say this is public property. And once he realized I once he realized I you're not going to talk over me. Once he realized I was an auditor, came out immediately, took the cuffs off. This is I did not expect this at all from South City. This was ridiculous. This was ridiculous. We're allowed to do this. The Supreme Court's ruled on it. And yet I just got snatched up, roughed up, put in handcuffs, hand glasses, ripp sunglasses ripped off my face, all by the South City Police Department for nothing. This is why it's important to do this, guys. This is exactly why >> explanation what that is. >> I want every I got everybody's name anyways. So, >> okay. >> Anything else? >> No, man. I'll see you guys when the lawsuit starts. >> Okay. >> Up. And you know what the conditions are going to be? I'm not even ask for money. >> Okay. >> Except actually him cuz he was halfway decent the whole time. >> I haven't been civil with him. >> You initiated an arrest with no with no crime.

So when you stepped on this property, the building manager stated if you're not here, >> who's the building manager? >> I wasn't in handcuffs. yesterday. So I'm saying how could the manager as a county officer stop stop >> I'm just asking you [laughter] property. >> All right. >> Yesterday the property manager >> the cold handcuffs [music] tightened around the wrists. A hasty decision by the police sparked a wave of outrage and allegations of abuse of power. >> Do you understand how quickly this just happened? He just put handcuffs on me in less than a few minutes. >> But do you see how fast you refused to answer his questions? He he actually >> it happened in less than a few minutes. Sir, I would Where's the transparency from for the people for we the people to check up on our government? Don't you think [laughter] Don't you think that Don't you think that our government should be transparent? Because it's transparency while you're applying for benefits as well, sir. >> So So you either hit apply for benefits? >> No, you can do both, sir. You can do both. You can apply for benefits while holding our government accountable. And we can't hold them accountable. We can't do you know that law enforcement, the law enforcement agency, sir, I'm not I'm not here just filming. I did investigative work. It goes Nassau County Police and I believe the Department of Social Services that help we the people, [music] sir, is like third on the list. And as far as budget, do you think that the people need more help or that law enforcement needs to just keep getting richer and richer? Some officers make $250,000 with overtime. So, do you think that that's reasonable salary for we the people? And did you know that there's dozens of officers that make 200? You're Are you a resident of Nassau County, sir? >> Yes, I am. >> Okay. Do you know there's dozens and hundreds of officers making $50,000? >> No, they start at 80. How How could they make 50? >> 80? >> I know some officers make $50,000. I don't know. I see how that's possible when they start at $80,000 a year, sir. And then after 5 years, it goes up to six phase six figures that you know, maybe public safety officers. I'm not sure. But I'm here to promote. Did I curse? Did I raise my voice? Did I do anything? >> So, you're here to promote? But you're here to do benefits. [music] >> Well, you said that. What did you say yesterday? You said that you were trying to protect the privacy of the people inside of you. Correct. >> The arrest raises questions about transparency [music] and public service ethics. Could this be just the tip of the iceberg? >> But if somebody said, "Hey, sir, you know, I'd prefer not to be on your YouTube video." I would I would blur their face out as long as they're not a public servant like you. I would blur their face out because I have that I have the capabilities to do that. I'd blur their face out and we wouldn't have any problem. >> But how would they know to me on email? >> How do they know to contact you when they're sitting in the lobby? You're filming them from a distance and their face is clear. I I watched your video >> and so and you and you get the pulse of what the people really want and and they want transparency and you don't care. >> The people here didn't care because they saw me holding. I'm not secretly recording. >> Everyone see you. >> I'm not secretly recording. >> But but you decided your on your own to air that without questioning the people. >> Well, I can't question every single person, sir. Like they have no expectation of privacy just like that. You have cameras here that anybody can get. I'm sure this seems like a while. This is my post. >> This is your post. So, if I came in here and you didn't I wasn't obviously recording and I wanted to go in the back and I just went through the metal. >> No, they go to the front and they and they're instructed to go to that welcome desk window. >> Okay. And they go to the welcome desk window. >> Then they get a ticket to handle their business. >> Okay. They just go through the metal detector and they wait in line. Right. Okay. >> So, if I went through the metal detector and I had a >> The arrest was only the beginning. Behind it, a wave of legal battles [music] is surging, promising an unprecedented showdown in federal court. The incident has shaken public opinion, raising questions about transparency, [music] the limits of police power, and the protection of civil rights. >> I just want to talk and I just I have a goal and a mission and I go across the country and this is what I do. And you know, I work with police departments. I have no issue. I've just recently did a tour with the police department in New Jersey where they brought me to all their government buildings and I recorded in all of them with the lieutenant or with the captain. We talked about the first amendment. I'm here to bridge the gap between law enforcement. I'm not anti-law enforcement. Again, do I think that Nassau County is one of the highest paid in the country, but I'm not anti-law enforcement at all. Worked with the police department in Ohio. I did a first amendment training over there. You know, my work speaks for itself. But this is the nature of the job when you're fighting for what you believe in. Sometimes the government's going to take away your freedom. It's funny. Yesterday I was recording here and no one said anything about you couldn't record, but now they want to type up a document that was printed up today. >> Can you loosen these a little bit? >> I can. >> Can I get to give me a minute? >> Cuz they're really, you know, super tight. >> Yeah, we can loosen them up. Thanks. >> We're just going to switch out the cuffs before we go in. All right. Do not put them on so tight like they are now. be able to figure it out. Just lean forward one second. >> Sorry, Killer. Put him on way too tight. Keep your hand for now. >> You know what? Just stand up for a little bit so I can get the bench. >> Make any moves. Where are you going to regret? A civilized society can only exist when transparency, respect for the law, and human rights are placed above all else.

Next, a newly appointed police chief faces trouble not from his duties, but from his wife's social media account. >> Yes, I took a photo. Okay. >> Okay. >> An employee publicly shared a document that was also public. Why did a photo of a meeting schedule anger the police chief and get her dragged into a closed room for questioning like a criminal? So, this was brought to my attention about some posts that were on Facebook and stuff. So, I have to ask, did you take any photos of the common council agenda? >> Yes, I took a photo council agenda. >> Okay. And And why did you do that? >> Um, I like to see them and have them available. >> Okay. Uh, >> they're they're public public information. >> Okay. Yeah, I understand that. Okay. And uh what did you do with that photo? >> Saw it on my phone. >> Saw it on your phone? >> Yep. >> And you didn't give it to anybody else. >> If somebody asked me what was happening with the what the common council agenda was, I sent it to them. >> Okay.

If you could tell me who you sent this photo that was used to discredit the department the department the city of Amory comic. >> I guess I'm not understanding how it's being used to discredit. >> Okay. I'm I'm going to get to that but it's starting to rile up people and stuff like that. Okay. So, you're not going to tell me who you sent it to. I'm I don't need to give names of both of my friends that >> friends that you're that you know have previously made statements to discredit and disparage the department. >> If you're speaking about Ashley Long. >> I don't know who Ashley Long is. >> No. >> Is this Ashley Long? This this city watcher? >> I don't know. >> Are you Ash? Are you a city watcher? >> I am not. >> Okay. But the photo that you used was given to this person and then previous knowledge, you know, this this this person has this city watcher has has uh previously discredited the the department, the city myself. >> You don't have the right to understand that. I don't understand. >> People have the right to question what's going on. We were a public entity. >> Oh, I I understand that. But when you take part in that, >> who says I took part in that? >> Because I sent because I sent a picture of public something that's publicly posted that they could have gotten anywhere. >> Yeah. >> An ordinary act like sending a photo to a friend is suddenly turned into a plot to sabotage a government agency. When the right to share public information is turned into subversive behavior, is this still democracy? >> Giving this person this photo. They asked for the information. I gave them the information. >> Oh, so they just happened to >> People want to know what's going on in their city. >> So, so in a matter of a minute and a half, people wanted you to know that. So, you went out there and took a photo and I gave it to somebody. Is that what you said? >> A minute and a half. Where where does that come from? >> So, you walk out to the hallway, right? I mean, how how how did this occur with you taking this photo? I don't understand the the time. What are you frequently I frequently go out there and take pictures of the agenda to have for my personal reference? >> Okay. >> I take pictures of the agenda and then when somebody asks what's going on on the agenda, I can say here you go. Here's your agenda. >> Oh, so just just something you just normally do. >> Yes. >> Okay. And all of a sudden that photo that you take gets on a website on a that discredits disparages the department and stuff. You you don't think those are disparaging or discrediting the department? >> I think people have a right to ask questions and to >> I understand you you believe that. But do you think that's disparaging when somebody says something like that? >> When somebody's when somebody asks questions about what's going on, is it disparaging >> when somebody makes a post of like this? >> And without any investigation results, the decision to fire was announced right in the hallway. A sentence was issued without a court, without a lawyer, just a hostile look from the boss. >> This here, let me give your your right, your stuff here. >> Here's a copy of your investigation. Here's your copy of your investigation. And this is your right to appeal. Would you like to sign that you have the right to I have to sign this here that you have a right to appeal? Let me make a copy of that for you as well. Anything that you have with the department or anything that you need to pull out your stuff?

I would like you to gather your stuff. >> Ask who? >> You asked him. >> Yep. >> Any other questions? >> Communicate with your staff. >> Okay. Citizens are protected by the First Amendment and the Wisconsin Constitution. In a real life situation, police officers face reinstatement of a fired employee, compensatory damages, including lost wages and attorney fees, financial penalties for failure to comply with the decision of the Labor Relations Board. The fired employee may have the right to file a complaint and sue under federal and state laws for unfair dismissal and abuse of power. The case has caused outrage in the community, especially among transparency and civil rights advocates, raising suspicions of corruption and abuse of civil rights in the Amory [music] administration. Just one camera and tension immediately erupted at the public agency. The >> first thing I want to do is exercise my first amendment right just to record in public. That what I'm doing is my right. >> I want to talk to I get every side of the story. >> Yeah. Can someone try to find a website for you so you can get this information? >> The police stormed in. Words were exchanged. demands to leave the building, but the citizen stood firm. This is public property. I have the right to be here. Who's right? Who's wrong? >> Officer Curtis. Curtis, it is right. >> Yeah. >> What's your pass number, sir? >> 130. >> 130. Appreciate that. So, uh, like I was trying to convey to everybody here. Uh, what I mean, First thing I want to do is exercise my First Amendment right just to record in public. Making making no efforts to go anywhere private, just stand in the lobby. Second thing I need to do is file a foyer with this department. >> Okay? So, I do this all over everywhere. I know precisely what I'm doing. They just don't know and they're not informed. Uh, it's definitely legal. >> So, first off, recording, that's fine. Here's the thing, though. If they say that you cannot be on the property, you do have to leave the property. Second off, if you do want to do a foyer request, uh, I see you have an iPhone, so you have the internet on there. Google Cook County Housing Authority. Maybe you need to speak to a higher up. say, "Hey, I went to your location at 1710 East End Avenue. They refused to service me. How can I go about doing it? Can I speak to someone that's in charge?" >> So, I mean, if they tell me if they tell me face to face, we're not going to accept your foyer or for you to even file one because you're recording, that's a direct violation of my rights. That's cool. I I'll be out of here. >> I'm going to go talk to them, see what's going on. >> Well, if I'm not Yeah, I'm not trespass. So, I mean, >> well, if you if you refuse to leave from inside of here, then it is trespass. Well, well, Officer Curtis, to be all be all be all the way honest with you, I haven't committed a crime. >> No, you're trespassing if you remain on the property when they've asked you to to leave multiple times. Regardless if you're committing a crime, >> you I got you. So, so to be perfect Curtis, uh you you got on airwalks today. We you trespass. Is that >> for 911 calls, nine police officers showed up, yet not a single one dared to say which law this citizen had actually broken. respectfully. I ain't going to try to tell you do your job, but I'm saying you guys did swear an oath to uphold the Constitution. My rights are being infringed on right now. And I don't want you guys to aid in that though, >> right? If that's their rules and they don't want you recording there, then you know, just put it away. >> Well, this what I say, Sergeant. This what I say right here. Be honest with you. If you guys obviously not willing to tell them that we do have a right, >> I never said that. >> And as a as a as as a um a member of the public >> to ask you to educate everyone that that this is our right. educate you a lot more >> the personnel here that what I'm doing is my right >> talk to them too >> because officer Curtis tried to escalate just a few moments ago. >> Okay. I'll speak to him later on. >> Okay. Well, I appreciate that. >> Talk to them really quick. >> Okay. So, um we're going to um going to see if the sergeant is going to go in and uh hopefully honor his oath. The signs are not uh don't have any statutes or codes to it. So, that's just a sign especially when you talk about public property and those signs. So, anytime somebody a late any lay person would see a sign that says no cell phone uses, the first thing you're going to think about is I'mma come outside, especially if it's somebody that's trying to come out and try to tell the police their narrative first. If I have a chance to catch that, I'm going to try to come outside and hurry up and catch it, it's still a violation. And no matter how you violate, long as it's a violation. So, but I I shouldn't really have to break that down either, but I I do sometime because some people just seem to think they know what they talking about. But it is what it is. threats of arrest, refusal to accept the foyer request. Is this their way of hiding something or just blatant abuse of power? >> So, the lady said, "Uh, basically, um, long as you recording, we won't service you." >> Of course not. Of course, you came. So, it's cool. It's it's it's all good. That's a direct violation of my rights. So, we'll just uh find out who's the higherups here and and and and file whatever we >> said. You got you're going to have to make some calls and try and speak to whoever's in like actually in charge of everything and then you can do your complaints from there. >> No. Well, it's cool. I just file them that way, you know. I just wanted to wanted them to see if they was going to say that on camera, and they did. So, >> so it's all good. So, I'm out of here. >> A complaint with uh >> Yeah, but they told him on his video recording that they refusing to service him. That's what he wanted cuz now he has his own documentation. >> What are you What are you trying to get? Cuz I'm trying to find a website for you so you can get his information. >> No, it's all just cool, man. It's all good. They They said they wouldn't service me, so >> it's all good. Okay. Do >> you know do you know about the one on the south street though? Have you been that one yet or no? >> Is it in in the same city? >> Uh the one in Chicago on Las Street. You've been to that one at all or No. >> No. I I didn't know they had >> I know they're all over the main hub's in on Lasal Street in Cook County. I got the address like 91. Hold on. Let me get you the address. James, you got a pen of paper or something you? >> No, I don't. Manhuh. >> I'll give you the address so you got it for later on. >> Yeah. Yeah. That's cool by me. >> 91. Hold on one second. >> This This got to be the chief right here. >> Not yet. Janitor San >> Oh, yeah. Oh, okay. Man, they So they let the So hold on. The janitors got uh uh firearms, huh? >> 10 South Street, James. >> 10 South Street. Do they got a phone number? Because I I'm definitely going to give them some rings and put some complaints. It's >> getting your tape, right? >> Yeah, for sure. Okay. Ready? >> Yeah. >> All right. 312. >> Okay. >> 663. >> All right. >> So, yeah. Like I say, man, I just went in there, wanted to give them the opportunity to do the right thing, man. And they're on camera saying, "We're not going to service you unless you cut it off." As the truth slowly came to light, a threat of arrest under the name of the law was made. But was it really the law or just power being abused? >> Let's do like this officer. Let's just do it like this. Sum it all up. >> If I go back in there, am I going to be arrested? >> It shows um your >> Yes. Robin does not want you in there. >> No, that's that's all I need. I'm going to go to y'all police department and make a complaint on you. >> You sure? >> I'm definitely I'm definitely I'm Trust me, I'm definitely on my way there. But they want to sign complaints against you. You go back in. Okay. >> Okay. Well, no. No. That's not what you just said. You said if I go in there, I'm going to be trespassed and arrested. You said that. >> Yeah. They're signing They're saying No, no, no. See, now you're trying to sum it up. No, no, no. >> That's what they're going to do. >> So, you just said though, if I go back in there, so that's we without them following the plane. Just me walking through that door right there, I will be arrested. >> She or she reminds me of that. She's the complainant. >> She's not a complainer of what crime. [laughter] She's the complainant for causing a disturbance and a nuisance for calling calling the police three times. >> All right. >> So, who where there who's abusing all this 911? Like you said, >> you are and you're and you're blaming the victim. >> And who was who was the other half of it? >> Not me. Right. You're saying just by me being here in the flesh, it's causing a disturbance. Is that what you're saying? >> You were you were you were interacting with them. He told me you came in to ask questions about his employment. What do you mean he told? >> Yeah. That was the second time. We talking about that third time after you talked to them that I had a right to do it, sir. No, you told them after you left. >> I have told them that I >> and they left me alone. Everything was good to go. >> He has every right to ask you your name. He ask you whatever you want. >> That's correct. >> And if you deny them, that's it. If you continue to do these things, you're you're bothering them. Citizens may sue public officials for violating their constitutional rights.

Old state police. >> The cameras turned on, the green lights flashed, and then the truth slowly emerged. A phone call, a familiar name, and actions that left the entire police station breathless. >> Take a deep breath and blow hard for about five or six seconds. Get everything. I just don't >> we see what the ATA is on. >> Who can we call? >> Huh? >> Who can we call from your phone?

I'm okay. That's good enough, man. Want to hurt you? Put your right foot in front of your left foot and stand like that for me. >> All right. So, you don't want to do this test. >> I will try. Just try to put your right foot in front of your left foot. Stand like that. Heel to toe. Count out loud every step you take. Whenever you're ready. Mr. Harry, you start start walking. >> Under Arkansas Code May 54th, 102, a misdemeanor, [music] nonviolent obstruction of government, cover up is punishable by up to 30 days in jail and a fine of up to $2,500. Although there is no specific punishment for the suspect, the arrest of a drunken investigator is a serious matter that discredits the police force, the cover up by the police involved could lead to internal investigations and criminal prosecution.
