We see one of these videos almost every month where police are arresting someone for publicly recording them & all it comes down to is poorly trained officers who don't know they are there to big public servants and instead infringe on our constitutional rights. I would love for something like this to happen with me. He would be YouTubes biggest star and the state would be paying for a early retirement for me.

Oh she was such a threat *rolls eyes*

 

At face value, arresting someone for filming from private property will get this prick meter maid duty ASAP.

 

Could she have told him that unless they had a warrant they couldn't come on her property?

Neither of us are that lucky, and I can only assume in our neighborhoods the police know better than to pull some shit like that.

Cop told her to go inside and she was warned several times. She basically decided to play curbside Johnny Cochran and say "I know my rights". She refused the cops orders and started being a smart ass, and she got arrested. Her fault.

 

Same thing would happen if you have your window rolled up on your car and the cop walks up and tells you to roll it down so he can talk to you. Are you you legally allowed to have your window rolled up? Yes. Do you have to roll it down if the cop tells you to? Yes. What should you expect if you refuse to roll it down? You're going to get arrested.

 

This dumb bitch refused to roll her window down.

Wrong. She did know her rights. She was within them. If your theory was correct then any cop who didn't want to be recorded anywhere would walk up to anyone recording them regardless of the situation and say " I feel threatened by you, stop recording me or I'll arrest you." We don't live in North Korea.

She was on her private property, unarmed, unagressive, uninvolved and Exercising  her constitutional right to record an officer conducting his duty in a public place. Any lawyer will wipe his ass up and down both sides of the law and back again.

NOPE. They just can't come in your house. She was refusing their orders which is an arrestable offense. So by playing curbside Johnny Cochran, she unknowingly was giving them the power to do whatever they wanted.

 

 

This dumb broad got what she deserved. Too bad they did not give her a fresh taste of dirt to go with her "fresh air".

Castor I feel you are incorrect on this but I'll let our resident lawyer chime in before this turns into a debate.

As much of a right as she may have had, stupid bitch should have went inside. Cop seemed nice about it at first asking her to please go inside. I can understand where he's coming from. A lot of people have the "fcuk the police" mentality, you never know what that person may be doing or their intentions. fcuk being a cop, every time you pull someone over, wondering if they're about to shoot your ass. Yeah of course you're gonna have the "I'm mightier and holier than though" complex, but there are good cops out there too.

He did not arrest her for recording. He did not care she was recording and never told her to stop recording. He arrested her for refusing to obey his order to not stand behind them while doing business. He said "I don't feel safe with you standing behind us, back up, go inside". That's all he asked. Cops do it every day. Often when making arrests people gather and they can get hostile. for their safety they don't want people standing behind them while dealing with customers. He told her "Go inside" probably 10 or 15 times. She refused.

I think she was within her rights until she refused the cops orders to move back. After that, she was fair game. That's my opinion.

This whole "letter" of the law and "spirit" of the law is getting completely out of hand. Really, they felt threatened by a woman standing at a 10yd distance doing nothing but holding a camera? That's total bullshit! There were three officers that I saw, a single woman with a camera who was directly receiving the directions. How is it that a single person, talking very calmly and only responding to their dialect is perceived as a threat unless they are uncomfortable with their actions being recorded? ? ?

 

She might have been arrested but the DA will have a puckered tailpipe when this one comes across his desk, pleading that she doesn't have the means or motivation to seek damages.

I don't know the law here, but it's seems legal to say that if a police officer feels threatened and asks you to do something, that you are breaking that law by not doing it. He simply asked her to go into her house, not stop filming. Seems reasonable to me. It's not like he's trying to hold down some human rights protest or just walking down the street telling her to get in her house. He asked a woman to go back inside her house while making an arrest

 

Would any of you do the same thing? What if he told her 'it's not safe for you or us that you are standing here?' If you're arresting someone, you don't know what could happen. Tell people to go inside for their safety and yours.

 

No idea where this was, but if it is a high crime area, then I'd sure as hell tell someone to get the fcuk away if they were standing behind me. Something obviously illegal is going on in the first place if some dude is getting arrested. Would you want someone standing behind you when you are arresting their friend and when they will not oblige a simple thing like, please go into your house?

 

I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that they were handling the arrest of her friend just fine and legitimately, and she was trying to catch 'the man' oppressing her and her friend, when really all he asked was that she go film from inside her house.

 

Civil liberties can allow you to be a fcuking asshole, but that doesn't mean you should use them as such. Dumb bitch.

And it's ok to make an police officer uncomfortable and making it harder for him to do his job while arresting someone? A bunch of 8 year olds standing around singing school songs isn't threatening either, but it's distracting while you are doing something important and could lead to you making a mistake, no?

 

Do you like someone watching over your shoulder while you work? Is it not irritating and stressful, and are you not likely to make more mistakes under such conditions?

 

Lady was making them uncomfortable while they were trying to do their job. Asked her to stop and simply step 10 feet backwards into her house, and she wouldn't. At what point as you just being a fcuking asshole? It's unfortunate that laws give people the freedom to be assholes for no reason and that we have people who will fight for the right to make other people's lives miserable for no reason.

Isn't part of being a professional dealing with distractions and well, not letting them being distracting? Our military men deal with a myriad of distractions on a regular basis while doing their daily jobs. If the police can't handle a single woman wielding nothing more than a camcorder, then fcuk all they need to seriously reconsider their profession.

 

She wasn't hovering over them, or even interacting with them. These guys were doing their jobs and IMO, had a guilty conscience over-reaction to the camera. Performance anxiety, maybe.

 

Maybe i'm just a confident professional, but I have at times hundreds of people scrutinizing what I do, while I do it. You can either perform the duty or you can't. If they were a group of guys reacting hastily then I could understand their concern. But she wasn't any part of that, and wasn't drawing any attention to herself just standing around.

 

Again, It's her property to stand in, quietly, if that is what she wants to do. The lady on the phone should have requested a supervisor to the scene immediately, hung up, and made the next call to any attorney she could think of.

I agree with Castor that she disobeyed a lawful order and got her ass arrested which I believe was legal, with that being said the cop pulls a BS "I feel threaten" card just because he was annoyed of someone video taping him was wrong of him.

Im getting tired of the police pulling this shit....

 

 

You can RECORD ME in public? Guess what... I can record YOU TOO.

 

 

Shes on her own property.... "Get in your house" is NOT a lawful order unless she has been convicted to house arrest.

People have become so comfortable with this police state we live in people are forgetting to stand for their rights and were having them slowly dissolved.
