[00:03:16]What department do you work for?"

[00:03:18]>> She said, "No, you need to stop." And then she grabs my hand, squeezes it, and tries to rip my phone out of my hand.

[00:06:16]Just can't get over that woman. She squeezed my hand so hard and tried to rip my phone out of my hand.

[00:06:25]>> Completely insane.

[00:06:28]>> Yeah. Hopefully they find it on the cameras here.

[00:06:39]Let's see if they have cameras where she assaulted me.

[00:07:29]Look, I'm not going to play this with >> Who's playing games? You're the one that didn't want to. You're the one that didn't want to do your job.

[00:07:34]>> Did you go down to >> I did I'm waiting for an officer to come here.

[00:07:38]>> And then you come back up to me asking if I can help you. You're the one playing games. I asked you for help. You didn't want to help me. And then you come back up to me and ask me if you if I need help.

[00:07:46]>> That's playing games, sir.

[00:07:47]>> Yeah, it is.

[00:07:49]>> You are. You're playing games.

[00:07:51]>> And I don't appreciate it to be honest with you.

[00:07:53]>> All right. You can report my name.

[00:07:56]>> Yeah, I will. I will. Very unprofessional.

[00:07:58]>> Yeah. Good.

[00:08:03]>> I think this is the officer that's going to come talk to you about your report.

[00:08:06]>> Thank you, sir.

[00:08:07]>> Thank you, sir. How you doing today, sir?

[00:08:09]>> How are you?

[00:08:10]>> Can I help you?

[00:08:11]>> Yeah. Can I get your name and badge number first, please? My >> name's Lieutenant Miler 603.

[00:08:15]>> Lieutenant Miler. And you're for the Black City, Blackfoot City Police. Okay.

[00:08:19]Just want to make sure you're not a sheriff or anything. Um, I spoke to the sheriffs. They referred me to you. Um, I was taking some pictures and video in the GIS survey area. Okay.

[00:08:28]>> Um, I'm an independent journalist. My name is Sean. I was working I'm working on a story here in the for the county.

[00:08:34]And uh, this woman don't she didn't identify herself to me. She comes up to me and she says I assume she works here.

[00:08:40]She did say she works here. She says, "Do you need any help with anything?"

[00:08:43]And I said, "No, ma'am. I'm okay. Who are you?" Cuz I don't know what department she works for, who she is.

[00:08:49]How can she help me? So, she says, "No, can I help you with anything?" I'm like, "Well, I don't know how you could. Can I get your name in your position here?"

[00:08:55]And she says, "No, you got to stop." And then or something to that effect. And then she immediately grabs my hand, squeezes it, and then when I'm trying to pull away from her, she grabs my camera, tries to take it from me, and then I push I push her hand back, and then she goes and speaks to the uh deputies, but she just committed a crime. Like, and I tried to tell the deputies like, "Hey, listen. This woman just assaulted me and tried to steal my my phone. Like, she won't I I asked her, "What's your name?"

[00:09:26]She won't tell me. Deputies aren't helping me. So, I'm asking you, Lieutenant, if you can help me >> with what's going on here, cuz that's completely unacceptable. Like, I'm not one to, you know, you know, run to the police for any little thing. But the entitlement on her for her to think that she can do that, if I did that to her or you or anyone else here, you guys would have me on the ground and I'd be in cuffs. And it's all recorded what she did. So >> So what do you want? How do you >> I want her arrested. I want her arrested for breaking the law. She broke the law.

[00:09:57]>> I can't arrest her off of the Clark decision. It was outside my presence.

[00:10:02]>> What do you mean? I I have video evidence, sir.

[00:10:04]>> Yes, but I have to visitly see her do that.

[00:10:09]>> You have to You have to visibly see her assault me and try and take my things or or she can't be arrested >> off of misdemeanor charges. That's correct.

[00:10:19]What do you mean? I have I have video evidence.

[00:10:21]>> The Clark decision, which is a Supreme Court decision >> in the state of Idaho.

[00:10:26]>> In the Supreme Court of the United States of America, says that any misdemeanor outside the presence of law enforcement cannot be physically arrested.

[00:10:35]>> That's not true. That's not that that is not true. Misdemeanor happen outside the outside the view of law enforcement all the time, sir.

[00:10:40]>> Physically take them into custody. And that's what you want.

[00:10:44]>> Write her write her a ticket. Do whatever you need to do. I don't I don't know what there's no way you could just get there's no way a sup the Supreme Court says you could just get away with >> what I'm saying.

[00:10:53]>> You want her arrested when someone says they want him arrested.

[00:10:57]>> Do you want her physically arrested or do you want >> I want her arrest? I want I I don't know what you what you need to do to arrest her.

[00:11:03]>> I need I need you to do a written statement for me.

[00:11:06]>> Yeah.

[00:11:06]>> You need you to provide the evidence that you have out there, >> the video evidence that shows her assaulting me and trying to take attempting to deprive me of my property.

[00:11:14]Yeah.

[00:11:14]>> So that's what I need. So, if you're willing to give me the video evidence and do a written statement, then we can proceed through the process of trying to get see if the prosecutor filed charges on her.

[00:11:27]So, you're telling me without you seeing her assaulting me, even though you're going about to see it on camera, you're about to see a video of her assaulting me and trying to take my property, >> Idaho Supreme Court, >> there is nothing that you can do to her other than submit a warrant to submit uh my sworn statement to a prosecutor.

[00:11:46]>> This Clark decision says even domestic batteries, which is a pretty severe crime, correct?

[00:11:51]>> I would agree. Yeah. If it happens outside our presence and there's no serious injuries, we cannot physically arrest someone. We have to ridiculous someone's >> It's on video. It's on video. You're seeing it on video.

[00:12:06]>> Let's say Let's say at the high school.

[00:12:07]We have a battery happen at the high school. Someone is assaulted at the high school.

[00:12:11]>> Uhhuh.

[00:12:11]>> It's on camera because they have video cameras at the high school.

[00:12:14]>> You couldn't arrest the person.

[00:12:16]>> Not physically arrest them. We'd have to submit it to the prosecutor for a summon to court.

[00:12:21]>> Wow. Well, whatever whatever process needs to get done, that's the process that I want to take >> cuz she she can't just get away with acting acting like that.

[00:12:29]>> Telling you that that >> I'm trying to educate you on the the process that the Supreme Court kind of tied our hands quite a bit on arrest.

[00:12:39]>> I I just I just think it I really believe that if I would have done this to her and she would have came up to you crying and saying that I did this, you would have arrested me. But >> I I I don't I would not I I can only speak for myself and my department that we would not physically arrest you.

[00:12:55]>> Yeah. Do you have is there is the is there somebody above you that's here that I can speak to and confirm what you're telling me?

[00:13:02]>> I see if the captain chief are in.

[00:13:04]>> All right. Thank you. Lieutenant, >> what's your name?

[00:13:07]>> My name is Sean.

[00:13:08]>> Sean.

[00:13:08]>> Mhm.

[00:13:12]That's insane. We all know that if I did what she did to me outside of a presence of a police officer or not, I'd be not only in handcuffs, I'd be on the ground.

[00:13:24]Insane what public servants and government officials can get away with.

[00:13:32]>> I'm not familiar with the Supreme Court case that he's citing.

[00:13:36]Um, you know, have to look into that.

[00:13:39]>> Chief is just wrapping something up.

[00:13:41]>> All right, no problem. Uh, do you think you need more than one statement form?

[00:13:44]Two statement forms.

[00:13:45]>> No, I think one should be one.

[00:13:48]>> You need a pen or you want to take that home or what?

[00:13:50]>> No, I'm going to fill it out here. I'm going to fill it out here.

[00:13:54]>> I was told her name is Danielle Wooten.

[00:13:57]>> Danielle Wooten.

[00:13:59]>> Wooten.

[00:14:00]>> Wooten. Like the street here. Blackford.

[00:14:01]Are you from Blackford?

[00:14:02]>> Wooten. No, I'm not from Blackoot.

[00:14:05]>> W T O N.

[00:14:18]Sir, I understand you want to meet with me.

[00:14:20]>> Hi. Are you the chief, sir?

[00:14:22]>> I am.

[00:14:22]>> And your name, sir?

[00:14:23]>> Gordon Croft.

[00:14:24]>> Gordon Croft. My name is Sean, sir. Um, I'm an independent journalist. I'm in the county gathering some content for a story. Um, I was in the publicly accessible areas of the the building here. Um when a woman approached me and she asked me if she can help me. I said, "Well, who are you? I don't know who you are, if you can help me or not." She says, "I work here." I was like, "In what capacity? What's your name?" Um same way I identify myself to you and you did to me. Professionalism. Uh she said, "Yeah, no. Can I help you or not?"

[00:14:54]And I was like, "Well, no, obviously then you cannot help me, ma'am." And she says, "Well, you need to stop." Or something to that effect. And she grabs my hand.

[00:15:01]>> Stop what stop >> recording, I I would assume. And she she grabs my hand, squeezes my hand. We wrestle over my phone. She usually takes her other hand to try and grab her phone out of my hand. I put my hand like this to stop it. I actually push her hand out of the way to like block her from to continue to try and take my phone from me. She brushes past me, goes up to the the deputies here at the front of the uh the entrance here, says something to them. I don't know. I didn't chase after her or anything. I wasn't caught up to her. And um I told the deputies that I wanted her arrested. She cannot there's no way she's going to I'm not a big you know it's not that big of a it's not that big of a deal if she would have apologized or something or if some I'm usually like an apology guy but her the the animous that she had for me in her face and the audacity that she could just come up to you know I wasn't being disrespectful to her. I wasn't you know doing anything wrong to her. I'm I the same way I'm treating you with respect. treat every single person I come in contact with with respect and but for her to treat me that way and her to do that was completely unacceptable. So I told the deputies I wanted to press charges. They referred me here. But your lieutenant is saying that she cannot be arrested because it didn't happen in front of his eyes even though I have it on video.

[00:16:16]>> It's kind of a an interesting thing that police departments in the state of Idaho have been dealing with since 2019.

[00:16:23]>> Okay.

[00:16:24]>> It's a Idaho Supreme Court decision called State versus Clark. Okay. Ever heard of that? No, never heard of state versus class.

[00:16:30]>> Any misdemeanor offense?

[00:16:32]>> I will look it up after this, that's for sure.

[00:16:33]>> Absolutely. Like I said, it's been a it's been an interesting struggle for police officers across the state for years or but uh any misdemeanor offense that does not happen in a police officer's presence, we cannot affect a physical arrest. And what I mean is put them in handcuffs, take them back to jail. Now, there are things you can do around that as far as take the report, submit it to prosecution, summons to get them into court, um go the route of a warrant that has to be um testified for in front of a judge, >> at which point in time they can issue an arrest warrant.

[00:17:12]>> Yeah.

[00:17:13]>> But unfortunately, that is something that we have to deal with >> on a daily basis in Idaho system.

[00:17:20]>> Got that's insane. Yeah, that's insane.

[00:17:23]But as because even if it's on video, it's like you are technically seeing it.

[00:17:26]That's true. You know, >> it's literally true.

[00:17:28]>> You are technically seeing it. But >> happens in our presence. We do have to get a warrant for the arrest.

[00:17:33]>> So, would I be able to go to the prosecutor or go to a judge and sign a sworn affidavit for her arrest?

[00:17:41]>> Yeah. I don't see why not. I mean, it's ultimately going to be up to the court and the judge.

[00:17:44]>> Yeah. It's going to, you know, I understand. You know, I just I need to >> You would have to jump through the hoops of actually taking a statement.

[00:17:50]>> Yeah. which is what I'm filling out right now.

[00:17:52]>> We'd have to download any video that you have to to support that evidence.

[00:17:55]>> Yeah.

[00:17:56]>> Uh contact the prosecutor's office and see if they have the time to do it.

[00:18:00]>> Yeah.

[00:18:01]>> Which >> is the prosecutor's office in this building?

[00:18:04]>> They are.

[00:18:05]>> Okay.

[00:18:05]>> It's just a matter of jumping through a few hoops.

[00:18:07]>> Okay, great. Well, he needs to be held accountable. I like I said, I've never I've had people Danielle Wooten, >> I was told her name is.

[00:18:14]>> Was this here at the front door?

[00:18:16]>> This was here uh by the GIS survey area.

[00:18:19]Um Yeah, I was told her name is Danielle Wooten. I'm not really uh I have no idea, but >> I believe she's uh >> works for the sheriff's office, but >> Oh, okay. Yeah. So, I have no idea, but just, you know, the audacity really and you know, the entitlement to think that she could just do that to somebody like it just it really irks me because, you know, I've I go around the country and I report on government, you know, corruption, you know, what's going on in law enforcement. I'm a big supporter of law enforcement. I've done, you know, I've done trainings, um, I've led trainings at police departments before, first amendment trainings, you know, deescalation. So, you know, I work with police departments in order to bring bridge the gap between the public and law enforcement because, as you know, you know, it's not that, you know, you're pretty pretty divided from the public at this time. But >> for her to do something like that, you know, she has to be held accountable for that because I would be held, you know, I'm a big believer in accountability.

[00:19:17]So, if I'm held accountable and and that's my major problem, even though I do support law enforcement that, you know, does their job, my major problem is accountability in our government because there's too many law enforcement officers out there and too many government officials that, >> you know, they make the laws and they enforce the laws, but the laws >> more times than not don't apply to them.

[00:19:38]>> Sean, what's going to happen from here is, like I said, fill out your statement. Uh, like anything, uh, please try to stay very neutral in this. uh two sides to every story theory and then the camera.

[00:19:49]>> We'll talk to her. We'll get your evidence. We'll uh >> have your statement and then we can call a prosecutor and >> Okay. I'd like to >> ultimately it's going to be up to the prosecutor attorney. He's an elected official and he's the one that makes decisions in these matters.

[00:24:30]Thank you, Chief.

[00:24:33]>> All right, guys. So, we're going to be getting out of here. Don't want to risk any more assaults.

[00:24:39]Completely insane.

[00:24:43]They obviously don't have an issue with me filming in the publicly accessible areas. So, that's a good thing.

[00:24:51]That's the purpose why we're here, to make sure that they respect our rights and treat us with respect. You don't come here expecting to be assaulted and have your property almost stolen from you. Completely ridiculous. Let's get out of here. Danielle Wooten grabbed my hand, tried to steal my camera in a courthouse on video. thought deputies wouldn't arrest her. Said she needs to be seen doing it in person, even with video evidence. Chief came down professional, filed the statement, submitted the video. But here's the thing. If I did that to her, I'd be on the ground in handcuffs. Same act, different outcome. That is the accountability problem in this country.

[00:25:28]Statement filed. Video submitted.

[00:25:31]Prosecutor has it now. This is not over.
