🚨When the police chief meets his match.
James Freeman walked into the public lobby of the Logan Police Department in Utah and filmed what was plainly visible — memorials, the space itself, officers coming and going.
No restricted area. No disruption. Just a camera.
Logan Police Chief Gary Jensen comes out and spots him, demands ID, and treats the filming as inherently suspicious.
“If you’re gonna come into my lobby and videotape in today’s day and age, I have the right to ask you to identify yourself.”
The recorder points out that photography is not a crime, that the lobby is public, and that Utah’s stop-and-ID law still requires reasonable suspicion of a crime.
Jensen calls for backup, tells him he is detained, then later asks him to leave the public lobby.
This is the clip.
❓What was more suspicious — the camera, or the reaction to it?
❓If press credentials aren’t required by law, why demand them?
❓Do you think police nowadays learning anything from watching older audit videos like this one from 2018? Why not?
