Video released by the newspaper Monday shows Joan Meyer shouting at the six officers inside the Marion, Kansas, home she shared with her son, Marion County Record Editor and Publisher Eric Meyer. Standing with the aid of a walker and dressed in a long robe or gown and slippers, she seems visibly upset.
“Get out of my house … I don’t want you in my house!” she said at one point. “Don’t touch any of that stuff! This is my house!” she said at another.
Have DoJ announced anything about dealing with this authoritarian physical assault on journalism?
The newspaper is suing the cops and city. And since I’m NAL I’m unsure if the state or feds have first juristiction on this, iirc the state has already begun an investigation.
The feds can look into it as a civil rights violation afaik. Because this is a major civil rights violation.
I would not call this a civil case, especially with a dead victim.
They’re all going to claim qualified immunity :(
