UPDATES:
Regarding my brief incarceration in the Huntington Park holding cell:
I was booked, including fingerprinting and photos. I am hoping to get a copy of my headshot soon.
I waited for about two hours, from sitting quietly on a bench in the
booking office, then resting in the holding cell for another hour and a half.

I was released at about 10:30pm.
Members of We the People Rising had eaten their dinner then returned to meet me. No
bail was required or posted. WTPR and LA County for Trump were a great help and assisted me in getting all my possessions together to
prepare for the next steps.

officer (it was not lawful)

Following my release and return home:
Less than 24 hours, the Huntington Park police department released my
cellphone back to me. They did not seek a search warrant to break into my
cellphone. I assume that they could not achieve standing or probable cause to
obtain a warrant.

Hello Everyone.
Yes I was arrested last night in the Huntington Park City Council chambers.
Unjustly.

I was recording
live this very tumultuous city council meeting, completely with Brown
Supremacists, plus La Raza and Mexica activists, all of whom believe that the
United States is “stolen land” from the indigenous peoples who lived in North
America thousands of years ago.

Huntington Park
forced itself into the national discussion about illegal immigration when they
city defied federal law and appointed two illegal aliens to city
commissions—positions which are for citizens only. This and a long spate of
corruption and fraud ripping off law-abiding citizens while turning a blind eye
to corruption and rampant street and gang crime.

On the evening
of June 6th, 2017 Huntington Park City Council and police engaged in numerous
Brown Act violations, including the unjust out-of-order rulings against me–and
my subsequent arrest.

The Huntington

the chambers the room. "The room is at full capacity."

No it wasn't!
People in the chambers informed us that there was still plenty of room.
Violation of the Brown Act!

Two trumped-up
(pun intended) charges were issued against me–that I disobeyed the lawful
order of a police officer, and that I was creating a disturbance in the
meeting.

Both are wrong.
I did not disrupt the meeting, and therefore it was not a lawful order. The
Presiding officer for the meeting, Mayor Marilyn Sanabria, had not directly
ruled me out of order for any reason. One police officer, Sergeant settled told
me to stop looking behind me(?), and then the police chief recommending a
"warning" against me. WHAT?! She gave Nick Iaonnidis three warnings,
and then he was escorted. Other members were routinely calling out and
disrupting the meeting, but they were never reprimanded or ruled out of order.

I was targeted,

One man was
cursing at me from behind. Another woman was flashing her camera light in my
face. I spoke to Officer Andrade and a volunteer police officer about the
matter. They were bothering me, and yet nothing was done about it. Other
disruptive people received one or two warnings, and they were not ordered to
leave the meeting

When I was
given two warnings (for what reason? None.), I was then told that I had to
leave the meeting. Since when was it two warnings as opposed to three?

This time, I
could not justify allowing them to remove me for no just reason. I thought of
Rosa Parks and other patriots who stood up to worse injustices. Pastor Rob
Owens reminded me that Parks' decision not to give up her seat helped inspire
more people to fight for their rights.
