A Civil Rights Attorney Started Filming a Traffic Stop. Then Police Arrested Her.
Her arrest may have been retaliation for her involvement in a lawsuit against the local police department.

When Jill Jefferson, a civil rights attorney, began filming the traffic stop of a black motorist in Lexington, Mississippi, police turned their attention to her—eventually "snatching" her phone, searching through her car, and arresting her. Now, Jefferson says that her arrest—and the charges against her—could have been retaliation for a pending lawsuit against the Lexington Police Department filed by an organization Jefferson founded.
According to an interview with CNN, Jefferson says she was driving home from an event on Saturday when she saw Lexington police conducting a traffic stop on a black driver. Jefferson, a Harvard alumna, began filming police from inside her car. Police soon noticed her, and pulled her over as well.
Jefferson says police asked for her ID, but she refused to give it—an assertion backed up by audio from the incident. After refusing to give police her ID, Jefferson says they seized her phone after "yanking" her out of her car. Jefferson also claims that officers began to search her car illegally.
"They went through my glove compartment, under my floor mats, they went into the briefcase and unzipped it and started taking things out and looking through them. All of this is an illegal search," Jefferson told CNN. Eventually, the police arrested her.
"I told her to give me her license 5, 6, 7, 8 times. She argued she ain't got to," one officer said to another in audio from an unclear point during the incident. "She came riding by filming…. I guess she thought that was a good idea."
Making matters worse for Jefferson, she says that she soon recognized one of the officers from her legal advocacy—and they recognized her. "I heard them talking about me once they took me to jail. They said, 'That's the woman that's suing us,'" Jefferson told CNN. "That's when I learned that they definitely knew who I was when I got there."
A civil rights group that Jefferson helped found, JULIAN, filed a federal lawsuit against the Lexington Police Department last August, alleging that Lexington police mistreated and retaliated against the town's black residents.
According to CNN, Jefferson was eventually charged with failure to comply, disorderly conduct, and resisting arrest. She was released after two days in jail, and she says her release was delayed because she refused to pay the bond in protest. A judge, however, waived the fee, allowing her to be released.
While the exact details of Jefferson's arrest are currently unavailable because body camera footage of the event has not yet been released, Jefferson's account to CNN and brief audio from the incident indicate that she was likely wrongfully arrested.
While the Supreme Court is yet to weigh in on the issue, several Circuit Courts—including the Fifth Circuit, which contains Mississippi—have found that individuals have a First Amendment right to film police, meaning that police had no right to interfere with Jefferson filming peacefully from inside her car. Further, in Mississippi, individuals stopped by police are not legally required to identify themselves, meaning that police retaliation for Jefferson's refusal to provide her ID is most likely unlawful.
"My plan was to film footage of police falsely arresting Black people," Jefferson told CNN, "and I just happened to get caught up in it."

Criminalize lying
Establish the internet as a public place with passport like security
Empower everyone to record everything they witness everywhere they go.
But you lie everyday you rave about how the Holocaust never happened, even though it is a proven fact. Accepted by the whole world except for Nazi kooks like you.
You don’t get it man, he’s figured out a secret truth that only geniuses like him get.
And his solution is always the same. Abrogate the 1A and establish a Stasi-like security state.
They could call it the “Ministry of truth “.
rob wants to participate in another holocaust, is why he wants everyone to pretend the first one didn't happen.
Rob is too lazy to do anything.

The fuckwit peanut gallery who’ve never seen much less refuted anything I’ve said, hypocritically claim as true, what they cannot prove.
If lying were protected speech, perjury and fraud would not be crimes.

The Nazi shit has had his ass handed to him on a platter many times, but the asshole it too fucking stupid to understand the comments, so here we go again:
Misek’s “irrefutable” evidence shown to be largely lacking in anything like what is considered to be evidence and refuted where we find some few scraps:
1) “There has been no objective forensic analysis at any supposed site. That means that there is no physical evidence.”
---------------------------------
That’s a lie.
Contemporarily, there was ample evidence in carcasses, skeletons, other human remains, mounds of possessions, gold dentures, etc.
Even in 1994, comparisons cyanide ions remaining on the walls of buildings where Zyklon-B was used sparing as a fumigant and the walls of the cellars at Auschwitz shows drastic deltas: Institute for Forensic Research, Cracow: Post-Leuchter Report (archive.org)
2) “Any activity that demonstrates and shares evidence to refute the holocaust is a crime in every nation where it allegedly occurred”
----------------------
Totally irrelevant to the Nazi shit's claims
3) “The crucial event of the story is the cyanide gassing of millions of Jews. That never happened.”
----------------------------------------
Lie or possible attempt at sophistry; cyanide is the active ingredient in Zyklon-B.
4) “Jews have published books illustrated with pictures of themselves shirtless dragging piles of gassed bodies from the chambers to cremation ovens.
But cyanide is absorbed through the skin and NOBODY could have survived a single day of such activity much less collecting reparations into their old age reminiscing about it years later.”
-------------------------------------------
Just plain bullshit. It is possible to die from contact, but the primary cause of death from Zyklon-B is ingestion of the gas containing the cyanide.
5) “And so it goes with every bullshit story. The facts prove otherwise.”
----------------------------------------------
Irrelevant attempt to poison the well; not evidence.
6) “Let’s not forget another old timey favourite. The story of Babi Yar is a popular lesson in Jewish schools described as the single largest event of the holocaust.
The lesson is that between 30,000 and 100,000 Jews were taken to a ravine in Ukraine where they were killed.
The story is told by one Jewish survivor, Dina Pronicheva, an actress who testified that she was forced to strip naked and marched to the edge of the ravine. When the firing squad shot, she jumped into the ravine and played dead. After being covered by thousands of bodies and tons of earth she dug herself out, unscathed, when the coast was clear and escaped to tell the story.
She is apparently the only person in history to successfully perform a matrix bullet dodge at a firing squad. The soldier aiming point blank at her never noticed her escape. Never walked a few steps to the edge of the ravine to finish her off.
They were stripped naked to leave no evidence. Naked she had no tools to dig herself out from under 30,000 bodies and tons of dirt.
Only after the deed was done, the nazis realized that so many bullet ridden bodies were evidence. Oops, rookie move. So they brought more Jews and millions of cubic feet of firewood to dig them up, cremate them on gravestones and scatter their ashes in surrounding fields.
There has been no forensic investigation at the site. None of the bullets allegedly burned with the bodies have been recovered. Not one shred of physical evidence of this has ever been found.
There are military aerial photographs of the area at the time but they don’t show any evidence of the narrative, no people, no equipment, no firewood, no moved earth, no tracks of any kind.
Simply stating these facts is a crime in Ukraine where the Babi Yar narrative is taught in school”
-----------------------------------------
To be honest, I haven’t heard of this but as regards any of evidence with reference to the Holocaust, it says nothing at all. It certainly was not the "single largest event; true or not It is totally irrelevant to the Nazi shit's argument.
7) “Have you ever heard of the Bletchley park decrypts of the famous German enigma machines? It was credited for turning the tide of the war as allies knew what military actions the Germans were planning.
Only released in the 1980s those translated messages included prison camp information, deaths, transfers and requests for medicines to treat illnesses. The numbers of dead don’t support the holocaust narrative of which there was also no mention of”
-----------------
Cite missing for YOUR claim, but:
“Allied forces knew about Holocaust two years before discovery of concentration camps, secret documents reveal”
[…]
“The Allied Powers were aware of the scale of the Jewish Holocaust two-and-a-half years earlier than is generally assumed, and had even prepared war crimes indictments against Adolf Hitler and his top Nazi commanders…”
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/world-history/holocaust-allied-forces-knew-before-concentration-camp-discovery-us-uk-soviets-secret-documents-a7688036.html
IOWs, you are full of shit.
8) “Are you willingly performing the feeble mental gymnastics required to believe, as the story goes, that Germans were communicating in code about prison camps while talking plainly about their military actions with their top secret enigma machines?”
-----------------------------------------------
OK, this goes beyond parody, and this represents the Nazi shit’s level of gullibility.
Simply, yes, the Nazis did NOT want to broadcast to the world that they were engaged in mass-murder, as the post-war interrogations proved. If there’s ‘mental gymnastics’ here, Nazi shit just got a unanimous “10”.
9) “The numbers of dead from German enigma decrypts does align with Red Cross numbers”
----------------------------------------------
Cite missing.
“The Red Cross regularly visited all prison camps. It was their job to report the cause of all deaths. They recorded a grand total of 271,000 among all camps for the entire war. It is a matter of record.
Are you performing the feeble mental gymnastics required to believe that the Red Cross were so incompetent that they were completely unaware of 95% or 5,629,000 deaths?”
Is Nazi shit so gullible as to believe the Nazis would welcome the Red Cross to the death camps? Seems so. Value as “evidence” = zero. except to Nazi shits.
10) “Zyklon B is an off the shelf insecticide used among other places in Prison camps to delouse clothing and bedding to save lives by preventing deadly typhus. The system used for years before the war employed heating to release cyanide gas, fans to circulate the gas and more to exhaust the chambers to make the de loused articles safe to handle.
Pictures of this equipment and the small de lousing buildings with clothing racks still exist in Prison camps. But no evidence of any gas delivery system has ever been found in the shower houses where the bullshit holocaust allegedly occurred. In fact, the story has changed to that they just threw the heat activated pellets onto the cold drainless floors in rooms full of people.
Such an inefficient method would have taken too long to kill the required number of Jews. The pellets couldn’t be spread evenly in rooms full of people. The cold drainless floors would have delayed the release of cyanide from the pellets that people would have swept away from themselves. Any dead would have released all their bodily fluids and their bodies covering the pellets. Vomit would have been added to the floor prior to entering such a room.”
-----------------------------------------
Arm-waving; see about for Zyklon-B concentrations. Value as “evidence” = zero
11) “According to Martin Gilbert in his book, Holocaust Journey, the gas chambers at Treblinka utilized carbon monoxide from diesel engines. At the Nuremberg trial of the Nazi war criminals, the American government charged that the Jews were murdered at Treblinka in “steam chambers,” not gas chambers.”
--------------------------------------
Arm-waving, deflection: Value as “evidence” = zero
12) “Gasoline engine exhaust contains about ten times the carbon monoxide than diesel. Diesel exhaust is relatively safe. Even if the Diesel engines were running at their maximum of 500 ppm, death would take several hours. Far too long to support the narrative.”
-------------------------------------------
One approximation, one number, many assumptions, no support. Value as “evidence” = zero.
13) “If Germans had used gas engines, death would have been in a few minutes. But in the holocaust narrative for Treblinka diesel was used even though they had plenty of gas for their tanks. Nuremberg still recorded that they were “steam chambers”.
Which stupid lie is more believable? You have to perform some feeble mental gymnastics to buy that.”
------------------------------------------
More arm-waving, weak attempt at well poisoning, zero evidence.
14) “Jews had been publicly claiming a holocaust of 6 million Jews in various nations no less than 166 times between 1900 and 1945. Only to coerce sympathy to raise money. Like the wastes of skin who fake cancer on go fund me pages.
The story of gassing Jews began as British propaganda to turn popular opinion against Germany. It was inspired to draw attention away from Jewish Bolshevik war crimes in Russia because that would work against allied propaganda. It also served global Jewish interests to create undeserved sympathy for Jews who had publicly organized boycotts of Germany to drive Germany to war.
--------------------------------
Anti-sematic rant, followed by idiotic conspiracy theory; not anywhere close to “evidence”.
15) “There is a documented letter from the head of British propaganda to the head of the war office recommending that they cease the “gassing Jews“ propaganda because there was no evidence for it and if found out would work against their propaganda efforts.”
------------------------------------------
I’ll bet there were all sorts of letters which were embarrassing during WWII. Try finding some evidence.
16) “The only thing the bullshit holocaust narrative has in common with WW2 is that they were both the creation of Jews.
These Jewish leaders are admitting it. Are they lying?
“We Jews are going to bring a war on Germany”.
David A Brown, national chairman, united Jewish campaign, 1934.
“The Israeli people around the world declare economic and financial war against Germany …holy war against Hitlers people”
Chaim Weismann, the Zionist leader, 8 September 1939, Jewish chronicle.
The Toronto evening telegram of 26 February 1940 quoted rabbi Maurice l. Perlzweig of the world Jewish Congress as telling a Canadian audience that” The world Jewish Congress has been at war with Germany for seven years”.
-------------------------------------------------
Smells strongly of “DID YOU HEAR WHAT TRUMP SAID!!!!!”, but regardless, even if true, it is irrelevant to the question.
Nazi scum will respond with further bullshit, not understanding the concepts of "evidence" or "relevance, claims the above is only a flesh wound: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UijhbHvxWrA
Stick your head in a gas oven and die, Nazi shit.
Your feeble failed attempt to refute what I said was refuted, 9 months ago when you first posted it and you haven’t even tried to correct your errors.
You just keep re pasting the same refuted crap each time trying to “resell it” as refuting what I said.
Unlike you I improve my statements over time.
You’re too feeble and lazy to keep up. You didn’t re paste your crap in the Ukraine article this week where I shared my evidence because that would clearly demonstrate how irrelevant you are.
Here’s a link to the last time I responded to your irrelevant attempt to sell your phoney refuted crap for anyone who needs proof.
https://reason.com/2023/04/15/proposition-democracy-is-the-worst-form-of-government-except-for-all-the-others/?comments=true#comments
As mentioned, the Nazi shit is entirely too stupid to understand he's been handed his ass yet once more.
Eat shit and die, asshole.
Step 1: Criminalize lying
Step 2: Get arrested for lying about the Holocaust not happening
Step 3: Profit?
You people either don’t understand or care about the process of argument in debate as a tool to conclude what is truth that all can share in peace.
When a claim is made, it is intended to be accepted by all as truth. Influencing all decisions.
If, someone has reason to think that claim isn’t true they can attempt to refute it. It’s why free speech is so essential.
The criteria to refute something, prove it to be untrue, is the same as the criteria to claim something is true. Using correctly applied logic or science.
If refuted, any claim is discarded to the pile of false claims, refutations, as lies losing all credibility and never to be used to base conclusions or decisions by rational people.
If the claim is not refuted, it stands as truth for all rational people to base conclusions and decisions on, until the day it is refuted if ever.
This is the civilized process to discern truth from lies for all rational people.
I demonstrate this in every post I make.
"You people either don’t understand or care about the process of argument in debate as a tool to conclude what is truth that all can share in peace..."
Yep, everyone else is wrong! You claim so and so lied about something or other and therefore the Holocaust didn't happen!
Gee, what a logician we have here!
Eat shit and die, asshole.
Nope. This is what I said fuckwit.
It demonstrates how feeble your failed attempt to refute it is.
If you’re so lazy and stupid that you can only re paste word for word the same refuted crap from 9 months ago, pretending like the “white Indian” you emulate that it hasn’t been refuted after I’ve proven it’s been refuted with a link to a months old article, that irrelevant delusion is all you.
The following points refute key elements of the holocaust with logic and science. This is because all stories creating the holocaust narrative defy logic and science.
There has been no objective forensic analysis at any supposed site. That means that there is no physical evidence. Any activity that demonstrates and shares evidence to refute the holocaust is a crime in every nation where it allegedly occurred.
The fact that all evidence that refutes the holocaust is criminal in every nation where it allegedly occurred is relevant if you are accepting any evidence at all from those nations.
Refusing to consider evidence is the definition of bias and any conclusion that bias is irrelevant only demonstrates bigotry and a disregard for justice.
Without objective forensic evidence all we have is a story made up of piecemeal recollections of events from paid and coerced fuckwitnesses.
I refute those stories with correctly applied logic and science.
The crucial event of the story is the cyanide gassing of millions of Jews. That couldn’t have happened as claimed. The story is bullshit.
Jews have published books illustrated with pictures of themselves shirtless dragging piles of gassed bodies from the chambers to cremation ovens.
But cyanide is absorbed through the skin and NOBODY could have survived a single day of such activity much less collecting reparations into their old age reminiscing about it years later.
Anyone who ever saw the naked body of somebody who died from cyanide asphyxiation would NEVER forget the red skin colour. The bodies necessary reaction to being unable to process oxygen.
Not a single surviving fuckwitness ever mentioned it.
Also, no dark cherry red skin discolouration was visible in any supposed photographs of bodies of so-called victims of the holocaust.
The fact is that you can’t explain it and your bigotry prevents you from recognizing the ONLY logical conclusion.
Not a single fuckwitness testimony or alleged photograph of bodies was of anyone who died from cyanide exposure.
So much for the “evidence” of a holocaust.
And so it goes with every bullshit story told by paid and coerced lying fuckwitnesses. The facts prove otherwise.
Have you ever heard of the Bletchley park decrypts of the famous German enigma machines? It was credited for turning the tide of the war as allies knew what military actions the Germans were planning.
Only released in the 1980s those translated messages included prison camp information, deaths, transfers and requests for medicines to treat illnesses. The numbers of dead don’t support the holocaust narrative of which there was also no mention of.
Here are some actual enigma decrypts from Bletchley park in 1942 when deaths were at their highest.
Covering the period 3rd Aug. 1942 – 25th Sept. 1942
A further examination is made of Concentration Camp figures; deaths from typhus have reached a very high figure in AUSCHWITZ.
A suspected case of typhus is reported from AUSCHWITZ (223b/42). It is probable that on the 6th August Nachschubkdtr. Russland Mitte requests typhus vaccine for 50 men and spottenfever serum for 20
For the first time returns are given for deaths of prisoners (223b/14,24,43,50): the figures for August are: NIEDERHAGEN 21, AUSCHWITZ 6829 (or 6889) men, 1525 women;.
Firstly the number of dead for the month are nowhere near what is necessary to support the holocaust narrative.
Secondly, notable is the concern over typhus deaths and the requests for medical supplies to treat.
Thirdly, are you willing and eager to perform the feeble mental gymnastics required to believe, as the story goes, that Germans were communicating in code about prison camps while talking plainly about their military actions with their top secret enigma machines?
That would require you to really believe that Germany INTENTIONALLY lost the war to cover up the holocaust while ostensibly leaving lying fuckwitnesses alive in the prison camps as the Germans retreated.
Let’s not forget another old timey favourite.The story of Babi Yar is a popular lesson in Jewish schools described as the single largest event of the holocaust.
The lesson is that between 30,000 and 100,000 Jews were taken to a ravine in Ukraine where they were killed.

When the firing squad shot, she jumped into the ravine and played dead. After being covered by thousands of bodies and tons of earth she dug herself out, unscathed, when the coast was clear and escaped to tell the story.
She is apparently the only person in history to successfully perform a matrix bullet dodge at a firing squad. The soldier aiming point blank at her never noticed her escape. Never walked a few steps to the edge of the ravine to finish her off.
They were stripped naked to leave no evidence. Naked she had no tools to dig herself out from under 30,000 bodies and tons of dirt.

There are military aerial photographs of the area at the time but they don’t show any evidence of the narrative, no people, no equipment, no firewood, no moved earth, no tracks of any kind.
Simply stating these facts is a crime in Ukraine where the Babi Yar narrative is taught in school.
The numbers of dead from German enigma decrypts does align with Red Cross numbers.
The Red Cross was founded in 1863 with the purpose of protecting the interests of victims of conflicts.
The Red Cross regularly visited all prison camps. It was their job to report the cause of all deaths. They recorded a grand total of 271,000 among all camps for the entire war. It is a matter of record.
The holocaust fairytale requires us to believe that they were so unaware of what might be happening that they completely missed 95% of the victims in prison camps.
AND that they had not so much as an inkling that a holocaust was going on right under their noses even though allied media propaganda was reporting it. Because there is no evidence of any Red Cross document suggesting they did.
Are you performing those feeble mental gymnastics? How gullible are you?
Zyklon B is an off the shelf insecticide used among other places in Prison camps to delouse clothing and bedding to save lives by preventing deadly typhus. The system used for years before and during the war throughout Europe employed heating to release cyanide gas, fans to circulate the gas and more to exhaust the chambers to make the de loused articles safe to handle.
Pictures of this equipment and the small de lousing buildings with clothing racks still exist in Prison camps. But no evidence of any gas delivery system has ever been found in the shower houses where the bullshit holocaust allegedly occurred. In fact, the story has changed to that they just threw the heat activated pellets onto the cold drainless floors in rooms full of people.
Such an inefficient method would have taken too long to kill the required number of Jews. The pellets couldn’t be spread evenly in rooms full of people. The cold drainless floors would have delayed the release of cyanide from the pellets that people would have swept away from themselves. Any dead would have released all their bodily fluids and their bodies covering the pellets. Vomit would have been added to the floor prior to entering such a room.
According to the testimony of the so called survivor, the timing entering the chambers immediately, the details shirtless survivor, piles of bodies with unvented cyanide gas pockets in every space, death from repeated exposure as per testimony would have been necessary, not just possible.
According to Martin Gilbert in his book, Holocaust Journey, the gas chambers at Treblinka utilized carbon monoxide from diesel engines. At the Nuremberg trial of the Nazi war criminals, the American government charged that the Jews were murdered at Treblinka in “steam chambers,” not gas chambers.
Gasoline engine exhaust contains about ten times the carbon monoxide than diesel. Diesel exhaust is relatively safe. Even if the Diesel engines were running at their maximum of 500 ppm, death would take several hours. Far too long to support the narrative.
If Germans had used gasoline engines, death would have been in a few minutes. But in the holocaust narrative for treblinka diesel was used even though Germany had plenty of gasoline for their tanks. Nuremberg still recorded that they were “steam chambers”.
Somebody is lying. They weren’t both steam chambers and diesel gas chambers.Which stupid lie is more believable? Does it even matter to you?
The story of gassing Jews began as British propaganda to turn popular opinion against Germany. It was inspired to draw attention away from Jewish Bolshevik war crimes in Russia because that would work against allied propaganda. It also served global Jewish interests to create undeserved sympathy for Jews who had publicly organized boycotts of Germany to drive Germany to war.
There is a documented letter from the head of British propaganda to the head of the war office recommending that they cease the “gassing Jews“ propaganda because there was no evidence for it and if found out would work against their propaganda efforts.
Head of British Psychological Warfare Executive (Propaganda), Victor Cavendish-Bentick in a handwritten note, wrote on Aug 27th, 1943,
“We have had a good run for our money with this gas chamber story we have been putting about, but don’t we run the risk eventually we are going to be found out and when we are found out the collapse of that lie is going to bring the whole of our psychological warfare down with it? So isn’t it rather time now to let it drift off by itself and concentrate on other lines that we are running.”
Public Record Office Document F0371/34551 revealed by Stephen Mitford Goodson, ‘Inside the South African Reserve Bank’.
Jews had been publicly claiming a holocaust of 6 million Jews in various nations no less than 166 times between 1900 and 1945. Only to coerce sympathy to raise money. Like the wastes of skin who fake cancer on go fund me pages.
What’s the probability after being proven lying about 6 million Jewish deaths by holocaust over 166 times that the 167th claim is true? Better to buy a lottery ticket. Though the bullshiit narrative has been like a lottery bonanza for Jews.
The only thing the bullshit holocaust narrative has in common with WW2 is that they were both the creation of Jews.
These Jewish leaders are admitting it. Are they lying?
They are properly referenced quotes from Jewish leaders demonstrating that they had intended to create and force Germany into WW2.
That kind of evil is absolutely relevant when considering the character required to lie to the world about a holocaust for the 167 th time.

While the exact details of Jefferson's arrest are currently unavailable because body camera footage of the event has not yet been released
It's still going through post-production.
Yup, or:
"The bodycam was accidentally not turned on and although we told you it had been, we were mistaken"
"We can't disclose the video at this time as it is needed in another investigation, which for reasons of confidentiality we can't inform you about"
"Oh dear, we left the thumb drive too close to a powerful magnet"
I don’t think flash drives can be wiped by magnets. Only magnetic storage, such as Hard Disk Drives (HDDs), can be wiped by magnets. Flash drives share more in common with Solid State Drives, or SSDs, which can’t be wiped with magnets as far as I’m aware.
Unless the magnets are moving.
I was referencing a scene from "The Big Easy" (the film which made Ellen Barkin into one of the great sweaty actresses).
That was a great movie and yes she was sweaty.
While the Supreme Court is yet to weigh in on the issue, several Circuit Courts—including the Fifth Circuit, which contains Mississippi—have found that individuals have a First Amendment right to film police, meaning that police had no right to interfere with Jefferson filming peacefully from inside her car.
Until individual officers face consequences for ignoring the courts, they'll keep on arresting people who film them because fuck you, that's why.
That's one of the problems with the whole Miranda line of cases. The only ones protected are those who actually have incriminating evidence against them as the remedy is suppression of the evidence. If you are innocent, there is little that can be done. That needs to change. Require officers to have personal liability insurance that will pay for violations of civil rights. If the insurance companies have to pay out, their premium will go up or they will become uninsurable -- in which event they can no longer be police.
I think that overlooks how, pre-Miranda, it was much easier to obtain false confessions under duress.
Miranda did nothing about duress.
Read the decision, particularly paras 12 et seq:
https://www.law.cornell.edu/supremecourt/text/384/436
I have made $18625 last month by w0rking 0nline from home in my part time only. Everybody can now get this j0b and start making dollars 0nline just by follow details here..
🙂 AND GOOD LUCK.:)
HERE====)> https://www.Apprichs.com
Smith1 is not saying that Miranda was a bad decision - only that it is insufficient. It solved (at least partly) the problem of false confessions but it does little to solve the many other police abuses. And it can't because the only Miranda remedy is suppression of the evidence. Smith1 is correct that we need more. We need personal liability for the people we trust with that level of authority. And like Smith1, I think the malpractice model has some merit. If we can't or won't directly manage the "bad apples", let's at least make it uneconomical for them to stay in the profession.
I'm pretty sure that all officers that take an oath ARE required to be bonded. The problem is that the municipality steps in and indemnifies them so that the officers premiums won't go up. Either that or a claim simply is not made. I think that this is part of most/all union contracts.
> Until individual officers face consequences for ignoring the courts, they’ll keep on arresting people who film them because fuck you, that’s why.
98% of the regular non-left commenters here on this ostensibly libertarian website support stormtrooper cops though.
they hide behind the “Libertarian” label because the general public, to the extend they give a shit about Libertarianism at all, associates them as being especially autistic, nerdy republicans who worship money instead of God and who hate poor people BUT still want to legally get high and fuck sex workers.
they have big drippy boners for Authoritarianism yet they constantly crow about freedom, which is a tactic to distract from the fact their whole political project is actually about taking away freedom from others.
"98% of the regular non-left commenters here on this ostensibly libertarian website support stormtrooper cops though..."
100% of the steaming piles of lefty shit posting here lie constantly.
Fuck off and die, asshole.
I have one question. Was she driving and filming at the same time?
Sounds like it. It says they pulled her over, and I don’t see how they could pull her over if she wasn’t driving.
See... if that's the case then it justifies some of it. It means they had cause to pull her over, and even if a cop can't demand a random person show them ID in that state, you can't refuse to show your driver's license at a valid traffic stop (see MS Code § 63-1-41.) And if they have any valid reason to arrest her, it means the resisting arrest charge *might* not be bogus (if they had no valid reason it would definitely be bogus.)
It doesn't mean everything is justified. If they were searching under her floor mats and in her briefcase they almost certainly weren't allowed to do that.
If she didn’t identify herself before they arrested her, how could she argue retaliation? Also, why/how is it relevant that this woman went to harvard?
re: how could she argue retaliation?
The interaction lasted longer than the initial stop. Retaliation can occur when the police take subsequent actions and decisions greater than they otherwise would have. In the case above, charging decisions, holding her longer than necessary, etc.
But it's also plausible that she is alleging that she was identified (and thus the retaliatory actions started) even before the point when she got conclusive evidence that she had been identified.
"the policing system works, it's just a few bad apples"
I wonder when folks are gonna respect themselves and others enough to stop repeating this nonsense and understand that it's a systemic problem.
They even get the saying wrong, it’s; “A few bad apples spoil the bunch.”
At risk of being pedantic, it's "spoil the barrel". Bananas come in bunches. Apples were traditionally stored in barrels as a food to get you through the winter.
And, yes, a properly packed barrel of all-good apples will keep for a surprisingly long time. But even one bad apple will quickly spoil the apples nearest it and eventually the entire barrel. Part of that is due to ethylene (produced by all apples but much more by bruised, over-ripe or rotting apples) and some by mold transfer.
Thank you for the correction.
Yup. There are a few other similarly misused phrases, like "the lion's share" - taken to mean "most", when it originally meant "all", or a curate's egg
FWIW I recall a remark by an FBI agent in an article in The Atlantic saying that 1/3rd of cops were good, 1/3rd were bad, and the remaining third would follow their partner's lead. He's not obviously wrong.
Which third are you?
As opposed to what? The CHAZ method? People taking the law into their own hands for everything? If you're arguing for improvements, argue for them but all I'm getting from you is revolutionary lawlessness.

FWIW, the majority of Lexington’s police force is black.
Which matters because?
Without that fact it's framed as a racial thing but with that it is a more neutral civil rights violation.
If you don't have to identify yourself when pulled over, how could they write you a ticket for a valid traffic stop? In my state that would then mean an arrest and appearance before a judge just for what might have been a traffic ticket.
you don't have to identify unless there is an underlying cause, such as a traffic infraction or other reasonably articulated suspected crime. Just a "pull over and show me your ID because I want to see it" doesn't qualify.
You mean like holding your phone to record a video while driving? She was driving, they pulled her over, that's right in her statement.
From the linked CNN article she implies she was driving (she was ordered to pull over and "I stopped") while filming which is a problem. However, "They illegally searched my car. They went through my glove compartment, under my floor mats, they went into the briefcase and unzipped it and started taking things out and looking through them." This is the briefcase of a civil rights lawyer who founded a group suing the police. Searching this is a huge problem.
And it does imply that her car was motionless at some point 🙂
> “My plan was to film footage of police falsely arresting Black people,”
Kinda racist.
Why not film footage of it for any person? It’s just as wrong when it’s done to a white person as it is to a black person. Also, how can you know upon casual encounter that police arresting a black person is necessarily police falsely arresting black person? Intentionally circumscribing it to one demographic based exclusively on presumption suggests a different agenda at work than simple justice.
Like maybe someone’s looking for a lottery ticket. Or an excuse to incite some looting.
Maybe this MISSING CONTEXT will help explain things:
Lexington, Mississippi African American Demographic: 80% Lexington Police Department Population Served: 2300 Number of Officers: 9
Well, no, that just makes it weirder, doesn’t it. Is this one of those times when the black people are actually white supremacists? That’s always fun.
As an aside, can I please ask why this is center-page largest-splashed headline news? This is some place out in the sticks that can’t even be reasonably called a hamlet, with literally one main road that clearly receives no upkeep, and a police department that appears to operate out of a building that seems like it’s struggling to stay upright. Doesn’t really seem worth the 500+ words you gave to it, let alone Top Story treatment.
Sure, injustice is injustice no matter how remote – but it kinda seems like we’re making the case of some podunk hillbilly cops (who are probably mostly black, given the demographic) out to be an apples-to-apples representation of some larger social problem, based on the account of an activist attorney building a career by instigating victimization and bent on seeing EVERYTHING as a nail because she only has a hammer.
Just… not buyin’ it, y’know?
This maybe poorly written but the article makes it sound like she started using her phone to film while she was still driving. That would actually be a crime. Furthermore, you are required to have your Driver license on you when you are driving, so I'm not really sure she has grounds to refuse to show it, since she was clearly driving at some point.
This does not sound like a particularly clear cut case.

And she insisted on staying in jail as a "protest", after 2 days the judge just lowered her bail to PR so they could kick her out. Frankly this sounds like something she was milking for all she could get out of it. She doesn't sound like someone righteous fighting to right wrongs, more like an activist trying hard to find anything she can use to "prove" her cause in order to gain financial profit.
Circumstantial at most.
Cops pull this shot because they get away with it so often. They know the law, they just don't care. They bully people into submission and lie constantly. Imagine how they must treat their wives.
A "civil rights attorney" -- we all know what that means: a braying, hostile, egomaniacal, one-point-away-from-psychopath bottom feeder. Tough call on this one, "civil rights attorney" vs. the brownshirt wannabe police.
