Speaker 1: Crime Onlines John Lemley.

26
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 3: The Wisconsin Supreme Court rules that a former Milwaukee police

27
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 3: officer was rightfully fired for sharing racist memes linked to

28
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 3: an NBA player's arrest, leading to public outrage. Once again,

29
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 3: crime online.

30
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 2: Sydney Sumner officer Eric Androtti was involved in the twenty

31
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 2: eighteen arrest of Sterling Brown, a Milwaukee Bucks player at

32
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 2: the time. Brown claimed that when police confronted him for

33
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 2: parking illegally in a disabled space, they used excessive force

34
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 2: and singled him out because he is black. The altercation

35
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 2: started when he was waiting for his citation and talking

36
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 2: with the officers. He refused to take his hands out

37
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 2: of his pockets when told to, so the officers used

38
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 2: a stun gun to take him down. Although Androtti did

39
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 2: not assist in Brown's arrest, he did transport him following

40
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 2: the incident. Brown sued the city, the police department, and

41
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 2: several of the officers who assisted in his arrests, including Androtti,

42
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 2: under federal civil rights statutes. Brown referenced Androtti's racist Facebook

43
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 2: memes in his lawsuit. A few hours after the arrest,

44
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 2: Androti posted online nice meeting Sterling Brown of the Milwaukee

45
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 2: Bucks at work this morning lol, hashtag fear the Deer.

46
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 2: Three months later, the lawsuit claims Androtti again posted an

47
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 2: offensive meme featuring NBA player Kevin Durant. In twenty eighteen,

48
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 2: Androtti was fired following a suspension for breaking the department's

49
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 2: code of conduct in relation to his social media posts,

50
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 2: not for his actions during the arrest of Brown. On

51
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 2: the same day the lawsuit was filed, Androtti deleted his

52
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 2: Facebook account. He filed the lawsuit against the Milwaukee Board

53
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 2: of Fire and Police Commissioners, which examine the case and

54
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 2: confirm the chief's dismissal of him. Androtti claimed that his

55
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 2: rights to do process had been infringed. Androtti filed an

56
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 2: appeal with the Wisconsin Supreme Court after his dismissal was

57
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 2: upheld by both the state appeals court and a circuit

58
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 2: court in Milwaukee. County.

59
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 3: The High Court ruled that the police chief had given

60
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,679
Speaker 3: Onrotty a fair opportunity to be heard and had adequately

61
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 3: presented the grounds supporting his firing. In Tennessee, the writings

62
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 3: of a school shooter may be made public after the

63
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 3: investigation is formally concluded. This as a judge appears prepared

64
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 3: to agree with a lawyer for Nashville Police with more

65
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 3: here Sidney Sumner with Crime Online.

66
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 2: Now by claiming to have acquired legal ownership of the

67
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 2: papers from the shooter's parents and to now possess the

68
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 2: copyright the parents of students of the Covenant School put

69
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 2: a further twist to an already complicated case. During a

70
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 2: two day hearing, eight lawyers argued their cases before Davidson

71
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 2: County Chancery Court Judge Lasha Miles. However, none of the

72
00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 2: attorneys claimed to be experts in copyright law. At times,

73
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 2: as it seemed as though their responses to myles sharp

74
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 2: questioning concerning the relationship between the Tennessee Public Records Act

75
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 2: and federal copyright laws served simply to further complicate matters. Ultimately,

76
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 2: Miles stated that she would draft an order specifying the

77
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 2: precise questions she once answered, she will then decide whether

78
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 2: the writings can be made public if at all. Officials

79
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 2: have stated that the records they have collected for their

80
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 2: investigation into the March twenty seventh, twenty twenty three incident

81
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,359
Speaker 2: at the Covenant School, an attack which resulted in the

82
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 2: deaths of three nine year old children and three adult

83
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,359
Speaker 2: staff members, are public information. They have clarified, though, that

84
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 2: they will not be released until their investigation is concluded.

85
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,600
Speaker 2: A Tennessee State senator, news outlets, a gun rights organization,

86
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 2: and a foundation dedicated to law enforcement are among those

87
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 2: requesting that the materials be made available immediately. They contend

88
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 2: that at this stage, the open investigation is merely a formality.

89
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 2: The gunman was shot and killed by police at the scene,

90
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,799
Speaker 2: and there are no known additional suspects in the shooting.

91
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 2: Three other organizations who were granted permission to intervene in

92
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 2: the case, count that none of the articles should ever

93
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 2: be released. Attorneys for the Covenant Parents, the Covenant School,

94
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 2: and the Covenant Presbyterian Church united to argue that the

95
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 2: writings are protected by a Tennessee law that safeguards the

96
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 2: privacy of information records and plans pertaining to school security.

97
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,280
Speaker 2: They contended that by interpreting the rule broadly, the text

98
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 2: could serve as a source of inspiration for imitators, therefore

99
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 2: jeopardizing the security of Covenant.

100
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 3: Miles made it a parent at the conclusion of the

101
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 3: hearing that this will not be an easy decision and

102
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 3: wants more information on copyright law before ruling on the

103
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 3: school shooter's writings.

104
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: Thanks John Martin ZZ and Marie Bellevue divorce. They share

105
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: custody of their daughter, Noel Zz. Martin ZZ sees Noel

106
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: every two weeks and holidays. When ZZ arrives at Bellevue's Kennesaud,

107
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,279
Speaker 1: Georgia home to pick up Noel, the home's empty and

108
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 1: there is a four rent sign out front. Zez tries

109
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,039
Speaker 1: to find Bellevue, but she does an answer text or

110
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 1: calls from him or anybody else. Police issue a warrant

111
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:07,239
Speaker 1: against Marie Bellevue for interfering with custody, but Cox can't

112
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: seem to track her down. Zzi hires four private investigators

113
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,599
Speaker 1: that can't find a trace of the mom or daughter.

114
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: Marie Bellevue and Noel ZZ have not been seen or

115
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: heard from for two and a half years. If you
