    Arrested for filming police brutality.

    Basically, this is how it went down.

    I was walking out of the Plainfield PD as a witness to a crime. The officers inside told me to go outside and wait for an officer to drive me back to my car. When outside, I witness ATLEAST 12 police officers punching, kicking, and maseing a man who was on the ground. Im about 20 feet away. I yell over in a civil tone "why are you guys beating him, hes on the ground ". They then tell me to leave. I then state " what about my ride?" one officer replies " Its gone, get the f out of here". I comply with his command and start walking away from the incident. I'm now across the street, walking away from the scene to my car (which is 10 blocks away) and on my cell phone trying to take a video of them beating the suspect. I did not say any words as I was taking the video and walking away. Once the officers told me to leave, I left. While I was walking away, back to my car, One officer saw what I was doing and three of them ran over to me and slammed me against a parked car.

    This is where my 2nd charge comes in. I still have my cell phone in my hand. Once they slammed me agaianst the car my phone dropped on the ground, almost breaking it. The summons says that I resisted by not putting my hands behind my back. Which is impossible because I had three officers pinning me on the hood of a parked park. The cuffs were on me in a matter of seconds from when they grabbed me. I did not interfer with their investigation or resist arrest.


    So I am being charged with obstruction of justice, and resisting arrest for not putting my hands behind my back. Do I have a shot at beating this in court..any feedback will help, oh and the cops also erased the video from my cell phone. thanks

    Before your last response, you had a total of three posts on this forum. All three posts were several months apart and were made after you got arrested/charged with various crimes.

    Obviously you have issues following the law, so forgive us if we don't believe the way your story went down. If you want help to beat a charge, go to a defense attorney forum and not a police forum. Based upon your admitted track record on this forum, I'd believe what the officers say over you any day of the week.

    Sir, did you bother to read the provisions of these forums about asking questions? I think not; therefore, I provide this answer in the hopes you get the message: HIRE AN ATTORNEY!

    We do not provide legal advice or opinions for actions taken by LEOs. Do you understand what I am saying?

    HIRE AN ATTORNEY!!
    Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence!

    I would ask if you had any hard data to back up that ridiculous claim, but we all know you don't.

    I'd call the White House and see if Barry can hook you up with a beer summit.

    By the way, doing drugs can make you paranoid. Did you ever stop stealing stuff?
