"Meet Officer Joe Crane with The Dept of Interior. Apparently he doesn't like hippies and thinks violating Civil Rights is just part of the job. Man did he pick the wrong group to harass this time"

He pulled up to our camp site to harass us and I opposed the harassment so I ended up with a warrant 2 weeks later for resisting and when I went to court to fight it, after paying a $1450 bill to a bondsman, it was dropped.

Now we are suing and this was the event that started the upcoming #Occupy King Range aka #OpSleepTight scheduled for summer of '16.

Got stopped after a local festival and it embarrassed the shit out of me. Cop told me I had a felony warrant and took me to jail on a $10k bond for a felony. The jail got it dropped to a misdemeanor due to some "error" but bond stayed the same. This is a blatant case of abuse of power and habeas corpus.

Funny how it was dropped to an "infraction" after I posted that I am not into plea agreements in innocence. I know I am watched and we are all likely watched when we taunt the asshat cop we are recording...I wonder if the DA decided a jury was the least likely way to a successful prosecution?
31 August at 16:45
I intend to go to the Clerk on Monday to file a suit against the cop for requesting the DA to process a warrant that lead to a false arrest, with co-defendants being the DA for filing the warrant, and possibly the CHP for executing a false warrant, and possibly even the Sheriff's Office. I am still unsure how the hell the County is involved in a case filed by a Federal LEO for a charge of resisting on BLM land...that was requested after the fact, when no arrest took place. Only Terry Stop.

| I
know its worth suing over. We pulled up to camp at a managed camp site
on BLM land and ended up in a lengthy detainment where i was requesting
a supervisor and ended up in jail on a false charge. I don't need a
lawyer to know that much. I am likely
going to find a good litigator but there are not many to choose from
locally so I may even litigate for myself. I am somewhat competent in
that area and the evidence of foul play is overwhelming here. Video,
belated warrant filed after formal complaint made to BLM office, cop was
transferred and office got new Chief. There's a lot to work with here
for sure 31 August at 17:14 ====================== ****UPDATE******* As always with AJS, there are several different versions of this tale. Here is the latest version in which he adds the little gem that Brian Kellison has also been arrested, although there is some doubt as to whether Brian was arrested in the same incident, <https://photographyisnotacrime.com/2015/10/blm-ranger-kidnaps-family/> It is **Very** much worth reading the comments column at the bottom of the article, where his statement is very clinically dissected. ======================== ******** UPDATE *********** 04/26/2016 Sad news, AJS and Brian Kellison have both been arrested again. Apparently this is to do with not appearing in court to answer the charges, They are being bailed, AJS has to find $115, Brian $1000. More to follow. | . |
