When cops don't like it when you assert your rights
At the heart of this incident is the question of what rights individuals have when accessing public properties for journalistic purposes. The First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution guarantees freedoms concerning religion, expression, assembly, and the right to petition. It notably protects the press and its ability to gather information, a principle that underpins Steve's presence at the Public Works facility. However, these rights are not absolute and can be subject to reasonable restrictions, particularly concerning safety and security.
Steve entered the Public Works facility without prior notification, relying on the assumption that his actions were protected under public access laws. Generally, public properties are accessible to the public, but restrictions apply, especially in areas where safety and secure operations are at risk. The legal framework surrounding trespass in government facilities often hinges on whether the areas are open to the public or if there are clear restrictions and signage indicating limited access.
In Washington State, where the incident occurred, trespass laws stipulate that entering or remaining on properties without permission can constitute civil or criminal trespass, especially if the areas are clearly marked or if individuals are asked to leave but refuse. The staff's insistence that Steve should have checked in is a reflection of local policies designed to safeguard both the facility's operational integrity and the safety of its visitors.
The crux of Steve's argument lies in his right to film activities at a government facility. The courts have upheld that filming government officials in public spaces is a protected First Amendment activity, as long as it does not interfere with the officials’ duties or compromise safety. However, the specifics of the situation-such as entering a construction area with heavy machinery-introduce complexities related to operational security and safety regulations, which might justify certain restrictions.
The interaction between Steve and the civil deputy also highlights the role of law enforcement in managing such situations. Law enforcement officers are tasked with upholding the law while also respecting individual rights. The deputy's involvement centered around ensuring that policies regarding safety and public access were communicated and adhered to, reflecting a balancing act between enforcing local regulations and respecting constitutional rights.
Several precedents, such as Glik v. Cunniffe, have affirmed the right to record public officials in public spaces. However, these rights are balanced against local government’s authority to manage their properties and ensure public safety. The nuanced debate in Steve's case revolves around whether his journalistic activities should override the operational concerns of the Public Works facility.

There would have to be hazardous conditions present, and posted warning signs. But there is nothing going on there.
Deputy asks for transparency, but she isn't wearing a body camera.
"It's a fragile area." Yeeeeeeeah, it really isn't.
She says, "You need to announce yourself". He, next time, may say, "Here ye, here ye... it is I, it is I who has arrived "!!
she says he's going in and out of buildings trying to make it sound as bad as she can. there fence is for security when they are not open.
OMG people it's not that serious. Lord forbid if someone knows their rights and stands on them . Thank you sir for standing up for what's right.
So if he wasn't educated on his rights they would go ahead and violate them.
Officer safety, public safety, public health, national security, ordinances, statutes, codes, acts, rules, regulations, policies, and suspicious activity are all being allowed to be implemented and enforced by members of our society with the lowest intelligence for power and profit. “Ignorance, allied with power, is the most ferocious enemy justice can have .” - James Baldwin.

The lawsuit for the claimed rape and human trafficking of Cathy O'Brien and her daughter by Reagan, Cheney, Byrd, etc., could not proceed in court because the rapists/abusers (many government officials) hid behind "national security". They claimed through their lawyers that if they had to be deposed, that would endanger "national security". How convenient. Cathy has been very vocal about what was done to her and her daughter, wrote a book about it, talked about it in many conferences/lectures. The perverts were completely quiet. You would think they would at least sue her for defamation if they were truly innocent. None of the perverts sued. They were hoping it would all just go away. Imagine what the deposition would be like. I would like to be a fly on the wall when the depositions go down. Our world is ruled by satanic perverts and their lackeys, many of them clueless when it comes to our Constitutional rights. That's exactly how the ruling elite want them. They simply act as brainless muscles to bully the "slaves".
She should be arrested for making a false 911 call a dangerous man with a camera?
"A piece of equipment comes around." Is that a threat? Seems to be. I noticed that neither blonde(Michelle) nor the deputy had a helmet or safety gear. Not an unsafe place for them.
If a piece of equipment starts moving...much like recording children when there are no children in sight.
Nice job. Enjoyed the completeness of this video.

Jefferson County should be proud of their deputies! I don’t think I’ve ever seen three cops show up and all three being courteous and conscious of the law. Good job!
All visitors need to check in...how fitting...same signs that the camps had in the 1940s
It was interesting that one of the male officers stated that he took his cues from their attorneys that there needs to be an offense committed in order to trespass someone from public property, especially since there was an apparent lack of restrictive signage. Other than very minor pushback from the administrative assistant, this seemed to be a very positive encounter and showed that neither the officers nor public administrators were ego driven.

You can't lock the doors during business hours, You probably took the sign down because it was. Forcible
A construction zone…no construction workers, no heavy equipment coming in or out, no safety cones in place, no caution signs, no safety barriers or tape in place, no sign with construction company’s name/logo, no legal permit from municipality posted,no construction foreman or lead man and no organization in place.

Thank you for the video, I thought it was pretty funny that a gal that works in the office comes out in the parking lot and assigns herself to be the parking lot monitor. She was in control mode. She was more frustrated with the situation that he wouldn’t do what she wanted. He was polite. He wasn’t breaking the law and of course, most of the people there didn’t know the law locking down the doors everyone standing around not doing their job. One law enforcement officer stated that she didn’t have a camera, but she did have a vest on and a gun. She didn’t seem to be very aware of any laws. Thanks again for the video.

Commen courtesy to announce yourself and your attention. Maybe it's your entitled blue shirt , but the lady deputy approached didn't say who she is and announce what her purpose is,but she butted in with your same courtesy. How proud you must feel to have a affiliation with a deputy that doesn't have the common courtesy to announce herself and state her purpose of the involving herself in this conversation. The mindset of entitlement of common courtesy of the blue minded mindset. You the female with a blue shirt you didn't announce yourself and your intentions of interfering with the photographer.
the only thing is if the gate was open to some public property you can walk onto it
It amazes me that they always ask 1. Your name 2. Followed by date of birth 3. Address; respond by asking their name and their favourite sexual position. Note the response , will be no from the females

Most articulate auditor I have ever seen
So what we have here is conspiracy to violate rights under the color of law. Title 18 USC 241 and 242 violations, which opens up a 42 USC 1983 lawsuit. You CANNOT be trespassed from public property (non restricted areas) absent of a crime being committed. Enforcing policy does not supersede enforcing laws.

This is what happens after just six months of training and no further EDUCATION OF THE FIVE ELEMENTS OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT. For most of these cops, after the swearing in, the Bill of Rights is no longer relevant. Another thing that keeps popping up is that these cops don't know the difference between the PUBLIC nor PRIVATE PROPERTY LAWS. 😐 The police academy training is the problem.

I've never heard the term "Civil Deputy". She's armed. A lot of civil disputes are solved with arms though.
from what i could see the office was over on the other side of the area to where you went in and the lady in the blue top had a go at you before you got anywhere near any office so you could say well i was going to the office but you did not give me a chance so that's down to you for stopping me

It does seem to be significant overkill for the "guard" to be wearing a gun and vest for protection. She has to call for police because she has absolutely no knowledge of what's allowed and not allowed. Somehow I don't think very many county equipment facilities are broken into DURING BUSINESS HOURS by any individual, let alone violent ones!
