A judge has ruled against the City of Ferguson in three cases where protesters were arrested after a prayer vigil after the death of Mike Brown, who was murdered by police in Ferguson Missouri. Keith Rose, Michael Lhotak and Jasmine Woods were all charged with failure to comply with officers’ orders. This charge is a […]
Open Carrying Texas CopBlocker Sentenced to 90 Days; Plans to Appeal
Last month I wrote about the Texas CopBlockers who were about to go on trial accused of “Interfering with Public Duties.” What these charges mean are that Kenny Lovett’s and Joseph Tye’s cameras and holstered firearms (two things MANY cops have themselves) were an interference for the officers who were trying to conduct a felony traffic stop. That’s right. […]
Amidst A Deadlock: Supreme Court Ruling Could Weaken Fourth Amendment Protections Against Illegal Searches
Amidst grounding itself, a post-Scalia supreme court stands compromisingly deadlocked. Before its remaining justices sits a case which, if lost, could further weaken Fourth Amendment protections. The now decade old battle, however, gives the court a chance at redemption from a questionable history. It’s a choice of a generation, similar to the daunting task of replacing […]
Prison Industrial Cancer: Former NYPD Crime Lab Researchers Sue State Police, Claim Intimidation And Supression
“It’s a sad day” doesn’t adequately describe when scientific fact is devoured and vomited back up by the prison industrial complex. Like cancer, or plague, the systematic subversion of justice for profit appears all encompassing, vast, parasitic. Ironically, an anecdote might come in the form of a lawsuit filed by a small group of persecuted […]
Pawn Play: Scott Walker-Appointed Judge Attempts To Approve Warrantless Searches In Wisconsin
Governor Scott Walker’s newly appointed supreme court justice proved who she represents — and it’s not the people. Justice Rebecca Bradley shocked her colleagues recently after nullifying an appeals court decision upholding an individual’s constitutional rights. Bradley’s decision disintegrates citizen protection against warrantless police searches. Her surprise, tiebreaking intervention both grants police more power, and exemplifies […]
How the System Made Me Plead Guilty
The post below was sent to CopBlock.org via the submission tab and written by Josh Bethune. While recognizing that “Badges Don’t Grant Extra Rights” and utilizing a camera to prove that (time and time again) are the main aspects to CopBlock.org, Bethune’s story below is one of value to those who film the police. While you […]

Noblesville Prosecutor Mulling MAC Tour Plea Offer
Today Brian, Miah (Indiana CopBlock founder) and I once again traveled to Noblesville, Indiana. We have friends in Noblesville but this trip was not a social visit.

Ademo & Brian’s Initial Court Hearing on Criminal Mischief Charges
Brian and I have been out of the Hamilton County jail for a little over a week. How we ended up in the county jail is a long story so we’ve detailed how the charges came to be, why we turned ourselves in and why we bailed out at the meta post title, “City of Noblesville vs […]
