Milkwaukee cops arrest photojournalist with local paper... to stop her from covering OWS arrests?
............................
"At no time did Kristyna Wentz-Graff ignore any commands by any officer," Kaiser said. "She came upon the scene to do her job as a photojournalist. She was clearly not part of the protest. She was wearing her Journal Sentinel photo press credential. She was carrying photography equipment while taking photographs of police making arrests when she was grabbed by a police officer and handcuffed. Her arrest was completely uncalled for and violates the First Amendment. No reason for her arrest has been provided."http://www.jsonline.com/news/milwaukee/js-photographer-arrested-while-covering-occupy-milwaukee-protest-133090133.htmlThe Milwaukee police knew exactly who she was and they decided to shut down the First Amendment like a bunch of Russian or Chinese secret police. That's what happened.
There's a larger story here about how the American police, nationwide, have really tarnished their own image throughout these protests.http://www.americablog.com/2011/11/milkwaukee-cops-arrest-photojournalist.html
