We here at Cop Block strive for transparency and accountability. Along those lines, below are documents related to the Chalking 8 incident that happened on June 4th, 2011 in Manchester, NH during a pro-police accountability rally. In total, eight were arrested and at least 10 cameras and phones were seized without issuance of receipt.

That looks good to me, of course I thought the whole thing was rediculoous from the start. My question is… does the prosecution have any curve balls (or this time of year, snowballs) waiting on you that they haven’t disclosed to you yet? It seems that I saw that happen once before when you were in Keene court.
I think as of now – with Muller’s “Memo of Law” now added to the collection above (“Manch Memo Mueller”) there’s nothing more to do than wait to see what William Lyons does.
The police cannot arrest anyone unless you are a “person” and unwittingly admit to being an employee! they are corporate policy enforcement agents. A Marshal can arrest you but first, a Bona Fide claim from an injured party has been presented to a Real judge only after all attemtps of mediation have failed from both parties and then the judge would issue a subpena to the defaulting party in the form of a warrent. The police also cannot stop you when your driving on the public highways and biways because they want to!
If they do,they are commiting a crime. Now you can sue them as an injured party, in their private capacity because they are only private contractors and hold no authority over us.They are not even mandated by congress to be armed.
