2 Arrests made at Barskey Arraignment

[Coconut]

Jesse Maloney and Charlie have been arrested for disorderly conduct while attending Mike Barskey's arraignment. Charlie was reportedly physically abused. This is all information from Porc411. Hopefully we have video, but no reports on that.

Sorry I couldn't be up there with you guys today.

No video of the assault by Milford police - it happened in the court where they weren't allowing cameras.

How convenient...

[AntonLee]

it's like the 'special room' at the casino where the heavy hitting happens.  How disgusting.

Why exactly were they arrested?  Did they interrupt the proceedings?  Refuse to stand?  Refuse to leave when asked?

We were all wondering what the deal was with Charlie. Apparently he was asking them about the hat rule, was not even walking into the courtroom, was simply asking about it, then someone said "that's assault!" out of the blue, which he was never charged with btw, so it was obvious flakey. He was ordered to take his hat off, and didn't immediately comply but instead merely asked what the law was about hats and whether it was an order or a request, and again I remind that he has as of yet made no motion at all to enter the courtroom where the "hat rule" applies. Suddenly Charlie is being thrown up against a wall and cuffed for disorderly conduct.

Once again, the only violation that really matters to the lords and masters-- disobeying.

Jesse went into the courtroom with a knit cap on and refused to remove it on "moral" reasons and refused to leave the courtroom because of it. 

Sounds like they just felt like beating Charlie up for no good reason.

Could have a nuke under that hat.

What a world we live in.

Anyone got a pic of Charlie so people can see how little he is?  The bailiffs were teaming up on and hurting perhaps one of the littlest, youngest free staters.  They are sad men.

You can bet Milford court has the video.  There were cameras in every room.  Charlie should demand it as evidence.  Of course, that's when they'll claim they only archive 24 hours at a time, or something.

A 91a action can be filed for tapes from any video camera in the building at the time of the incident.

[Kat Kanning]

I think Lauren just asked for it from the fed courthouse and they gave it to her, no 91a.

To jesse and/or Charlie: Are you available tonight for an interview for FreeKeene? Obviously Jesse can feel free to post his own if that's easiest, since he's a blogger.

I'd rather be interviewed, if you don't mind. I already had a blog project I as already working on, and todays ordeal has left me wiped. I would rather just take a bong hit and talk about it.
