Reporting School Police Brutality Lands CopBlock.org Founder In Jail

"Adam "Ademo" Mueller, co-host of radio show Free Talk Live and founder of CopBlock.org, was found guilty Monday of illegal wiretapping and sentenced to three months in jail. Although Mueller maintained no wrongdoing, Assistant Hillsborough County Attorney Michael Valentine said Mueller's intentions were "to disrupt, to be disobedient, to slow down the court system and clog it," the New Hampshire Union Leader reports. Mueller was found guilty of secretly recording conversations with Manchester police Capt. Jonathan Hopkins, Manchester High School West Principal MaryEllen McGorry and school secretary Denise Michael without their consent. The recordings were Mueller's response to an incident last October, when video surfaced of 17-year-old Frank W. Harrington being lifted from his seat in the New Hampshire school's cafeteria by a school police officer and slammed face-first into a table...".* Ana Kasparian and Ben Mankiewicz discuss on The Young Turks.

Adam Meuller faced 21 years in prison.

The judge was very lenient on him...

[bewiseopeneyes]

It's jail not prison. Big difference lady.

The guy in the video doesn't have any fucking balls. Anyone should be able to record anyone for any reason and that goes double for recording the police. He is talking about taking someones persons belongings and destroying them and he is out $250? Fuck that bitch, you take my camera and smash it and ill do the same with your face faggot!

[justin creditable]

as long as the teacher is aware its all good. my teachers allow us to use our phones to record the class lecture at least that way they feel we are paying attention and not texting

[justin creditable]

many of you don't understand its not the visual being recorded its the audio. you can tape/record anything as long as there's no audio

[justin creditable]

why didnt they just remove the sound of the recording. the visual of the recording shows the purse being returned and the student not doing anything before having his face slammed into desk. that would have saved anyone from wrong doing and then more likly caused concern as to why the officer used excessive uncalled for force

[ABS0LU7Egaming]

thats great... so lets charge him with a crime that he didn't commit and was well within his rights to do, instead of actually charging him with something he did do. a great idea, except, I have no reason to believe any government shithead who states he was being inappropriate now, because they have already discredited them selves through these false charges. are they covering thier own asses, or is he a real pedo? cry wolf

goddam the guy is so fucking stupid
