VERY INTERESTING CIVIL RIGHTS LESSON FOR THE POLICE! It took a Greenfield District Court jury about two hours on Tuesday to acquit a pair of New Hampshire men accused of illegally filming at the Franklin County Jail last summer. “We can put this behind us and move on with our other projects,” said defendant Pete Eyre, who along with Adam Mueller had been charged with unlawfully filming law enforcement officials at the Greenfield jail last July. […] The pair were arrested on July 1, 2010, after attempting to film the process of bailing out their friends, who were being held on charges at the jail. Eyre and Mueller initially were granted permission to film the bail process, but later were forbidden by jail officials from recording the procedure. When they continued to digitally recording their encounter with jail officials, they were arrested by Greenfield police. A jury of six people and two alternates listened to testimony in the two-day trial, which began Monday and ended with closing arguments Tuesday morning. youtu.be/BeiSPPzP1f8?list=UUl-qkifCsEcn0AuTSRiZ0Lw
