  Speaker 2: Sydney Sumner officer Eric Androtti was involved in the twenty
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: eighteen arrest of Sterling Brown, a Milwaukee Bucks player at
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: the time. Brown claimed that when police confronted him for
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: parking illegally in a disabled space, they used excessive force
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: and singled him out because he is black. The altercation
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: started when he was waiting for his citation and talking
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: with the officers. He refused to take his hands out
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: of his pockets when told to, so the officers used
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: a stun gun to take him down. Although Androtti did
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: not assist in Brown's arrest, he did transport him following
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: the incident. Brown sued the city, the police department, and
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: several of the officers who assisted in his arrests, including Androtti,
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: under federal civil rights statutes. Brown referenced Androtti's racist Facebook
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: memes in his lawsuit. A few hours after the arrest,
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: Androti posted online nice meeting Sterling Brown of the Milwaukee
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Bucks at work this morning lol, hashtag fear the Deer.
• 2:36

• 2:39
  Speaker 2: offensive meme featuring NBA player Kevin Durant. In twenty eighteen,
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Androtti was fired following a suspension for breaking the department's

  Speaker 2: code of conduct in relation to his social media posts,

  Speaker 2: not for his actions during the arrest of Brown. On
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: the same day the lawsuit was filed, Androtti deleted his
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: Facebook account. He filed the lawsuit against the Milwaukee Board
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: of Fire and Police Commissioners, which examine the case and
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: confirm the chief's dismissal of him. Androtti claimed that his
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: rights to do process had been infringed. Androtti filed an
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: appeal with the Wisconsin Supreme Court after his dismissal was
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: upheld by both the state appeals court and a circuit
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: court in Milwaukee. County.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: The High Court ruled that the police chief had given
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: Onrotty a fair opportunity to be heard and had adequately
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: presented the grounds supporting his firing. In Tennessee, the writings
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: of a school shooter may be made public after the
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: investigation is formally concluded. This as a judge appears prepared
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: to agree with a lawyer for Nashville Police with more
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: here Sidney Sumner with Crime Online.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Now by claiming to have acquired legal ownership of the
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: papers from the shooter's parents and to now possess the
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: copyright the parents of students of the Covenant School put
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: a further twist to an already complicated case. During a
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: two day hearing, eight lawyers argued their cases before Davidson
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: County Chancery Court Judge Lasha Miles. However, none of the
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: attorneys claimed to be experts in copyright law. At times,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: as it seemed as though their responses to myles sharp
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: questioning concerning the relationship between the Tennessee Public Records Act
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: and federal copyright laws served simply to further complicate matters. Ultimately,
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: Miles stated that she would draft an order specifying the
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: precise questions she once answered, she will then decide whether
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: the writings can be made public if at all. Officials
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: have stated that the records they have collected for their
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: investigation into the March twenty seventh, twenty twenty three incident
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: at the Covenant School, an attack which resulted in the
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: deaths of three nine year old children and three adult
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: staff members, are public information. They have clarified, though, that
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: they will not be released until their investigation is concluded.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: A Tennessee State senator, news outlets, a gun rights organization,
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: and a foundation dedicated to law enforcement are among those
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: requesting that the materials be made available immediately. They contend
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: that at this stage, the open investigation is merely a formality.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: The gunman was shot and killed by police at the scene,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: and there are no known additional suspects in the shooting.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: Three other organizations who were granted permission to intervene in
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: the case, count that none of the articles should ever
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: be released. Attorneys for the Covenant Parents, the Covenant School,
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: and the Covenant Presbyterian Church united to argue that the
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: writings are protected by a Tennessee law that safeguards the
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: privacy of information records and plans pertaining to school security.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: They contended that by interpreting the rule broadly, the text
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: could serve as a source of inspiration for imitators, therefore
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: jeopardizing the security of Covenant.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: Miles made it a parent at the conclusion of the
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: hearing that this will not be an easy decision and
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: wants more information on copyright law before ruling on the
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: school shooter's writings.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Thanks John Martin ZZ and Marie Bellevue divorce. They share
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: custody of their daughter, Noel Zz. Martin ZZ sees Noel
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: every two weeks and holidays. When ZZ arrives at Bellevue's Kennesaud,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Georgia home to pick up Noel, the home's empty and
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: there is a four rent sign out front. Zez tries
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: to find Bellevue, but she does an answer text or
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: calls from him or anybody else. Police issue a warrant
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: against Marie Bellevue for interfering with custody, but Cox can't
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: seem to track her down. Zzi hires four private investigators
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: that can't find a trace of the mom or daughter.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: Marie Bellevue and Noel ZZ have not been seen or
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: heard from for two and a half years. If you
• 6:23
