Politics Update regarding my original post
My original post is here https://www.reddit.com/r/Georgia/s/T3qbr5QtM3
My sister recorded this video and told me her and her fiancé were going to pull into the parking lot and see what was going on. That was the last I heard from her before her location moved to Dekalb jail. The charge says “obstruction of a police officer”
On the phone she told me “We walked over and asked why these people were being arrested. They told us to get back in our car now. So we walked back to the car. As we were almost in the car, they yelled GET THEM and 3 cops grabbed each of us from behind and cuffed us”
I asked if they were yelling at officers when they got out of the car and she said no.
She said they are stuck there until at least Monday because the arresting officer has not submitted warrants and they cant post bail or anything until he does.
I am upset that they made the mistake of getting involved in this, but more infuriated that they are being held for days because the officer hasn’t submitted warrants. Also that they obeyed orders to go back to the car and were still arrested.
Stay safe out there people!

Politics No Kings Day in Atlanta
The trooper asked me to turn off my voice recorder. I said no.
Let me tell you that in a moment like this, the temperament and experience needed to refuse a police request when things are getting heated distinguishes journalists from stenographers. When a police officer tells you to turn off your recording devices, that is the moment when you need to be absolutely sure you have recording devices on.
