This is the most annoying deputy you’ll ever see, and the video is a prime example of why you should almost always remain silent. Anything you say will be twisted.
On April 4, 2019, First Amendment auditor Rogue Nation filmed inside the Florida Dept. of Health in Osceola County lobby in Kissimmee.
Staff called the Osceola Sheriff Department and Deputy C. Bonar badge #2154 responded.
He wore an F.T.O. pin. (Field Training Officer)
Deputy Bonar accused him of 'loitering' and questioned what business he had on the property.
He then claimed recording someone without their permission is a crime and the man recording could be trespassed for allegedly “causing a nuisance” by making employees uncomfortable with his presence and recording.
The video ends with Bonar going to talk to the complainant. (Which he should have done first.)
No arrest was made.
❓Should an FTO who can’t explain the First Amendment still be training new deputies?
❓Should Deputy Bonar remain a Field Training officer after this video?
