What a bunch of contempt of cop bullshit.

This dumbass cop should arrest himself, what the hell does he think his dashcam does?

It’s worth noting that their RV was legally parked two and a half blocks away from the jail. Their arrest had nothing to do with the RV or driving.

Not only did they have to pay an impound fee, they had to pay two towing fees, because the RV was first towed to a police station where it was searched, then the wrecker was called again to tow it to the impound lot.

If you’re curious about the firearms charge, Massachusetts does require a valid FID to even possess ammunition, even with no gun present. And if you think that’s crazy, an FID is required to possess pepper spray for self defense. The fee for this FID is $100.

I have been fallowing this story on other blogs. There seems to be some thing a little odd about it, I would recommend reserving judgment until we have more information.

It also shows on copblock.oeg., several items down, as a satire piece. Would recommend caution.

I know it may be hard to understand that the filth are in fact nothing more than a bunch of thuggish assholes Roger but it’s true, as is this story. People in the USA who wear a tin badge seem to have become the biggest pricks on the planet. If you ever fly through Denver you may meet the TSA agent who likes to sniff personal electronics like iPods and cell phones, seems they are getting these idiots from the retard homes now. Deedeedee!

I did not say right or wrong. I said use cation and gather further information.

These guys look like they like to prevoke cops. The name Cop Block doesn’t do them any favors.

I’m all for photog rights but this just looks like they’re in it to see what kind of reaction they can get.

It all sounds a little hinky to me. There’s more to the story.

Many police stations utilize both concealed and non-concealed cameras. Do the police in Mass. do this as well? Is it felony wiretapping if they do so with a concealed camera?

One of these days, I’m gonna kill that fucking pig.

Adam and Pete later said on Free Talk Live that the curtains were drawn on the RV so that the VIN couldn’t be seen from the outside. So the cops had to first enter the RV to see the thing that gave them permission to enter the RV.

The easiest way to provoke a cop these days is to stand on your legal rights. The question is, why are cops provoked by that?

Hear, hear!!!

Photography IS a crime, if you dare to cover the oil spill – a D Felony and $40,000 fine, as a matter of fact:

The only way to ensure your rights is to exercise them.

This is one of the reasons I question this report.

@Roger – if you haven’t done so already I encourage you to read the overview of the incident that Adam Mueller and I wrote: http://copblock.org/greenfield

The satirical piece you cited is just that – satirical. It was written by someone else and obviously does not accurately reflect what happened during or after the incident. I struggle to understand why it would mitigate the facts of what happened in your eyes. It’s clear that Adam and I were not the aggressors that day and that it was us who’s rights were usurped by Dodge and his colleagues.

Now this more like it. You are the ones involved, give us more information. As I said, I am not judging, I just want clarification. The satirical entry causes confusion, if any thing I lean toward your side.

By the way, I would recommend mini cameras pined to your clothing and radio linked to a remote site that can not be found by the cops. Run them at all times. Also bug your coach. Now, get a lawyer and sue there asses.

Good call Roger. In addition to the video cameras Adam and I each carried in our hands, Adam had a smaller camera hooked to his chain/necklace. All of those and our cell phones are still being held at the Greenfield, MA PD.

Both of the lawyers we were assigned for our bail hearing on July 2nd filed motions to preserve evidence, to ensure that the content captured on those devices is not deleted. We’ll see if that happens…

It looks like Adam is going to retain the lawyer he drew but I’m still trying to nail down a lawyer who can practice in MA. Ideally we’ll have a team advising much like our http://motorhomediaries.com/jonescounty case. As Carlos noted – we’re hoping to get the ACLU of MA involved. We’ve also emailed and left a VM with them so we’ll see what pans out.
Pete Eyre recently posted..Liberty Radio Network to Advertise with Liberty On Tour

Well its good to see Adam and Pete atleast free to help us understand the situation better. But still answer me this WHY THE HELL DID THEY break into a legaly parked motor home with the window shades drawn where they couldnt see the vin number did they run the plate I mean comon how stupid can you be……

I second the notion that everyone here should watch this video.

seriously. thad allen or whatever that guys name is backpedaled so hard he hit a brick wall.

Carlos, I recommend you delete the above comment from your blog. I know this site is about the preservation of 1st amendment rights, though threats like the above comment, whether they are serious or not, don’t fall under the protections of the 1st amendment. For your own “CYA” purposes, you should report the threat and/or simply delete it.

Police think they have the right to do as they please, most often it is violating the rights this country was founded on. The only way i have found to beat a cop is to remove their power. Show them they have no power over you, and you will get assulted. In other words, if you cant beat them, join a group who can. I know this because i was convicted of “criminal trespass” for bringing a cat into a coffee shop. Case you didn’t know, police don’t have to follow laws because they will just lie their way out of it. Judges love cops, cops love judges. They all work together to put ALL blame on us. Stand up and fight these lawless assholes.

What a bummer, anarch child: I recall with great fondness a coffee shop in Vienna, Austria where a big, black tomcat insisted he owned the place. He’d jump up on a chair next to someone and purr until they fed him or scratched him behind the ears. What coffee shop wouldn’t appreciate that? OK, Starbucks. But that sort of proves my point….

OK, back on topic. I’ll repeat my recited reiteration. Only one way exists to halt actions such as those of Sgt Dodge et al. Make it cost them personally. That tactic alone will make those with power think carefully about whether they use it to advance personal vendettas or public good. Without it, the conversations Eyre and Mueller attempted will remain less than unilateral, no more than ignored persuasion echoing in a cell.

If you think this is bad, try having a gun some day. Check the shooters blogs, the stories will sicken you. They have been killing people.

Also, I have experience in electronics and the Idea of sniffing equipment is valid. A great deal of information can be derived by the smell of circuit boards. So the fact that he smells equipment is not strange , I do it my self. It only means that he has experience with electronics or explosives.

And I do mean the cops.

Now your talking out of your ass.
Jody recently posted..Did Federal Operatives Help Kill Kennedy

No, I am not. Google it, there are a great number cases of just this.

Jody; Why do you insult others? It only makes you look small and undermines your statements. It makes it look as though you are not sure of what you have to say and others when they see this will be convinced that you are wrong for whey else would you do this.

Re: your link about people being convicted of secretly recording in Massachusetts. I was standing next to Pete Lowney when he was arrested. Pete was openly recording. The cop lied or was wrong when he said that Pete had the camera in his pocket.

For future reference: The big mistake they made was agreeing to go outside the police station. The cops did that so that there would be no video record of the arrest.

Remember, the cops had their own security cameras running inside. As long as they were inside, there was an “official” video record of the encounter, one even the cops could not deny or dismiss.

@Rance, who said, “Carlos, I recommend you delete the above comment from your blog. I know this site is about the preservation of 1st amendment rights, though threats like the above comment, whether they are serious or not, don’t fall under the protections of the 1st amendment.”

You are incorrect. A “threat” must be specific and unconditional. A nebulous statement about “someday I’m gonna…” is not specific enough to be a criminal threat.

Sgt. Todd Dodge and his wife Jodi live at 401 Green River Road in Greenfield.

Officer Marcus Paulin and his wife Jennifer live at 12 Revere Circle in Greenfield.
