Story here. Excerpt:

'A North Carolina deputy with the Onslow County Sheriff’s Office was caught on video confiscating two different cellphones and detaining a former U.S. Marine after she claims he got “aggressive.” Her claims are now being called into question after video of the incident surfaced online.

The deputy, identified as Natalie Barber by Photography Is Not a Crime, was responding to a dog-related dispute between Carlos Jaramillo and a neighbor on Saturday.

Barber is seen on video asking Jaramillo for identification for the police report, an order he complies with by giving her his government-issued Veterans Affairs card. When she demanded he give her his driver’s license instead, he refused and claimed he wasn’t operating a motor vehicle.
...
When Jaramillo’s son started recording the officer detaining his dad with another phone, she confiscated that cellphone as well.

“I’m snatching everyone’s phone and I will take everyone in!” Barber screams.

Jaramillo’s son, who claims the officer hurt his hand, then got yet another phone to record the incident, but this time stayed inside their home’s screen door.

After Jaramillo was placed in the back of Barber’s squad car, another officer arrived on the scene and smoothed the situation over. The man was ultimately released and not charged with a crime.

In her official police report, Barber claimed that she only confiscated the phones and detained Jaramillo after he got “angry” and was “being aggressive.”

Jaramillo reportedly complained to Barber’s supervisors about the incident but was told the officer acted properly because she feared for her safety.'

on a simple dog related dispute, w/ a kid trying to record it all?

wonder what she would have done if the x-marine had attempted to arrest her for her obviously improper responses, and physical aggression against a child w/ a telephone? pulled her gun?

guess when your chief law enforcement officer (holder) causes your chief executive officer the need to claim executive privilege to keep rep. issa out of their emails explaining why the thousands of unmarked u.s. made 'assault' weapons were pretty much forced on the Mexican mass murderers and drug dealers. they really prefer the fully auto type for obvious reasons. weapons then conveniently discarded at the scene of hundreds (maybe thousands) of murders of innocents, including u.s. border officers such as Brian Terry.

it should be noted here that several in this administration were making speeches at the time (erroneously) about how 90+% of the guns used in the border war were coming from the u.s. the actual number was around 10% +/_.

weird how these accessories to mass murder and illegal gun running will bow to men and machine, but refuse to show any genuine respect or apologize to the loved ones of the honorable dead men and women they put in harm's way w/ their illegal gun grabbing activities.

when law enforcement supervisors, local to the country's chief l.e.o.'s and executives show no respect for the rule of law, why should anyone else?

remember Benghazi!
