   David Montenegro, founder of the the Seacoast Liberty Police
   Anti-Corruption Campaign (SEAL PAC), was acquitted today in
   Strafford Superior Court of one misdemeanor charge of disorderly
   conduct.

   Mr. Montenegro, who was represented in this trial by attorney
   Robert Watkins, was arrested on November 29, 2008 while hosting an
   information table in downtown Dover. The display, a weekly event
   hosted by SEAL PAC, provides the public with information about
   civil rights violations committed by police. Dover police charged
   Montenegro with disorderly conduct.

   Mr. Montenegro had applied for, and received, permits from the city
   to hold these events. A jury saw these permits, as well as
   photographs and other evidence, during a trial that began yesterday
   and concluded this afternoon with a verdict of not-guilty.

   It is expected that Montenegro will be filing a civil rights claim
   against the city in the near future.

   For more information about his acquittal, Mr. Montenegro can be
   reached via SEAL PAC's hotline , or by e-mail:

   all of SEAL PAC's press releases, can be found on the SEAL PAC

Great news.  From what I can tell, the cops did him wrong and should pay out of their pockets.
