Documentary Film Maker Arrested at Couric Award Ceremony

Link: Ziegler Detained



OK. Watch the video, then ask yourself if Michael Moore would have been treated like this by the campus police. Then determine if you can, precisely what "law" this man violated. The officer told him that he was being arrested for violating the "rules."

Then, after physically arresting the man and transporting him to an entirely different location? There is suddenly a change of heart on the part of the police, who begin to bargain with the man for his release.

I am sorry, but once you place handcuffs on a person and remove them from one place to another? You have arrested them. And just like the old adage that "you can't un-ring a bell?" You can't un-arrest someone after you have arrested them.

This is a clear case of false arrest and detention, if not kidnapping and whoever this man is? He should sue this college and all parties involved for damages.
