Report describes investigation of abusive UMass Lowell officer

This article was cross-posted at Massachusetts Cop Block In October of last year, UMass Lowell student Brendan Brown was threatened by a campus police officer for video-recording a group of police officers who were responding to a fight that had taken place outside an apartment. Brown was approached by UMass Lowell Police Officer Noberto Melendez [...]

Buy a Ladies shirt, 50% of proceeds go to Ademo’s legal defense

If you’ve been following Copblock closely, you know that Ademo has (ridiculously) been charged with felony wiretapping, while merely seeking to place pressure upon police for their lack of accountability. For more details, please read more here. He will require substantial funds for a defense, particularly if he chooses to seek counsel (which I have [...]

Actually yes, ignorance of the law is an excuse

There are countless laws. Literally. Maybe not in the mathematical sense – it is technically possible to count the laws in existence, but based on a colloquial and general use of the term “countless” it is not really feasible for someone to count every law. Just this year, 40,000 laws were passed and are set [...]

Reconstructing Leviathan: Academics Outline Harm of Growing Security State

There is no (direct) total war but rather the never ending ‘wars’ on crime, terrorism, illegal immigrants and anti-social behaviour. There is no formal abolition of civil rights, just their hollowing out. In short, there is a need for a new politics of law and order. The old problematic of how to perfect and refine [...]

Defensive or Offensive? That is the Question…

Recently I was found guilty in my Chalking 8 trial, while highlighting those bogus charges we (Pete and I) met Frank and Mike, who took this video of Manchester Police Officer Murphy. The video went viral and received attention from several news outlets. Instead of taking a serious look at the actions caught on tape [...]

27 January 2012

By Ian Freeman, blogger at FreeKeene.com: Back in 2010, on a visit to the NH Attorney Genital’s office, we met “investigator” Dick Tracy. More recently, Copblock’s Ademo and I were in the area so we dropped in again with some more questions, this time meeting “investigator” James Brown. Neither man was interested in speaking on the record and [...]

Caged for Four Days in Manchester

27 January 2012

Former cop-turned prosecutor-turned judge William H. Lyons said I owed “the state of New Hampshire” 248 FRNs. His claim is without merit. I did no harm to person or property. “The state” was not a victim that I was responsible to make whole. But I recognize that if I failed to act, I could be [...]

Photography Is Not Confusing!

I was on my way home from work when I noticed some police activity. So I stopped and got out my camera. It wasn’t long after I started recording that I drew the undivided attention of Deputy Krow of the Clay County Sheriff’s office. Deputy Krow seems to be genuinely puzzled by the concept of [...]

Be Respectful…

26 January 2012

The text below was sent to us via our submission tab from Grace, who thinks: Police officers are brothers, sisters, wives, husbands, and children. Showing up to traffic stops with signs saying they are harrassing us is just rediculous. I’ve gotten a couple tickets in my life, yea it sucks but its the law. Go [...]
