(h/t eric goldman ) avi adelman, a freelance journalist, was photographing ems officers responding to the scene of an apparent overdose. dart (dallas area rapid transit) officer stephanie branch arrived at the scene and placed herself between adelman's camera and the medical scene. branch made up something about "establishing a perimeter" and "hipaa violations" and told adelman to stop photographing. according to the decision [pdf], officer branch also asked adelman to leave the scene nine times and (for whatever reason -- most likely because texas cops just don't seem to understand this particular law ) for his id four times. adelman refused and was arrested, spending 20 hours in jail. an internal investigation by dart resulted in a letter from chief james spiller to adelman telling him the bogus "criminal trespass" charge against him would be dismissed. it also contained an admission of guilt: the letter stated the interaction and arrest were "not consistent with dart… policies and directives." and, just to prove the old adage holds true , dart discovered officer branch made twenty-three false or inaccurate statements in her report, including falsely claiming adelman was only a "few feet" from responding paramedics. so, you'd think an admission of wrongdoing would pave the way towards a successful civil rights lawsuit. unfortunately, that's not the case. the admission the arrest was not consistent with dart policies pretty much defused any "policy and practice" or "failure to train" claims adelman might have brought against dart. and circuit precedent shuts down adelman's attempt to hold officer branch directly responsible for violating his rights. in her motion for summary judgment, branch argues that the first amendment right to film the police or by reasonable extension to photograph emergency medical activity, as adelman was doing, was not clearly established at the time of adelman's arrest in 2016. [...] in support of her argument, branch relies on the fifth circuit's holding in turner v. lt. drive... the turner decision was handed down in 2017 . in that case, the appeals court went the distance, clearly establishing a first amendment right to record police activity. but that doesn't help adelman at all and allows the cop who lied 23 times on her report to duck out this lawsuit. the court finds that the holding in turner applies to the case at hand. at the time that adelman was arrested for photographing a medical scene attended to by dfr paramedics and dart police, the right to photograph police was not clearly established. therefore, branch may assert a defense of qualified immunity. and, despite dart's admission the arrest was not according to its own policies, adelman is unable to move forward with his fourth amendment claims against branch. adelman's claims against dart, however, will move forward. since a municipal entity is unable to assert a qualified immunity defense against claims like adelman's, it will have to continue to defend itself against adelman's first and fourth amendment claims. unfortunately, dart's letter to adelman seems to indicate his arrest was the work of a rogue transit cop who violated dart policy and lied about it. ultimately, it may be found dart is not liable for arrests that violate policy, leaving adelman with nothing but a legal bill for his troubles. read more | 5 comments read more copyright by leigh beadon tue, jul 31st 2018 1:30pm filed under: copyright , eu , europe , internet , podcast permalink. short link.

permalink. short link. court catches ice in a lie as it tries to vanish a mexican journalist and immigration policy critic from the foia-to-the-rescue dept a lot of talk about " bad hombres " and former "shithole" denizens raping, pillaging, and terrorizing their way through our country has led to a lot of beefed-up immigration enforcement. ice, once just a post-9/11 also-ran relegated to counterfeit panty raids and seizing sites the riaa didn't like, is now front and center. it is the face of immigration enforcement and it's the agency that's decided a handful of executive orders outweigh the constitutional rights we extend to asylum seekers and other entrants into this country. lots of rights go violated in the case of mexican journalist emilio gutierrez-soto. gutierrez entered the country with his son, oscar, in june 2008. he made credible claims his life would be in danger if he was returned to mexico, stating that his house had already been raided at least once by mexican military police, presumably in retaliation for his reporting. he was detained for seven months and separated from his son while asylum proceedings continued. after being released, he reunited with his son and other members of his family. the proceedings dragged on. gutierrez made a living operating a food truck while nothing much got adjudicated. he also criticized the us's immigration policies and procedures as being unnecessarily punitive, especially considering the country's history of welcoming immigrants. he noted the extremely odd handling of asylum cases like his, where people seeking refuge from persecution are tossed into a jail or detainment center for months or years while the courts slowly make their way through their case backlog. gutierrez didn't receive a final decision on his asylum request for almost a decade. that's when things started going very badly . in july 2017, immigration judge robert hough finally ruled on his nine-year-old asylum claim. hough ruled that gutiérrez did not present sufficient evidence to prove that he was targeted for his journalistic work or that his life would be in danger if he returned to mexico. this meant gutierrez would be sent back to mexico despite building a life for nine years without incident on this side of the border. he could still appeal the decision but he would have to wait for ice to make its own call on deportation. the bureaucracy requires a final determination from ice before an asylum seeker can seek an emergency stay from the bureau of immigration affairs. before meeting with ice to get its final decision, gutierrez issued his own parting shot. on october 4, 2017, gutiérrez accepted the national press club's prestigious john aubuchon award on behal
