If officers aren't sure whether or not I had the right to be on the property, is it really just to arrest or prosecute me for being there? I was arrested on 10/20/25, at this public park. The basis for the arrest was that it was private property, which it is not. I argued that it wasn't private property and asked the officer to call his supervisor, which he agreed to do, but then moments later arrested me as I stood there waiting for the supervisor to come.
I was then released from jail the next day and told by the jailer that the charges were being dropped and that I was lucky.
So, in this instant video, the officers are attempting to figure out whether or not the property is open to the public.
BTW, John Walser, Head of Security (either for Ruth Eckerd Hall generally or for The BayCare Sound, specifically) used to be a higher ranking Clearwater Cop. The officer that is leading the discussions with me, in this video, is Sgt. Newton, who is an officer with the Clearwater Police Department.
I have an awful lot of pics of other people on this very same property, on different days and over multiple months. So, why didn't they arrest them? Why me? How many others have they arrested, if any, at this same location?
I had a hearing yesterday - a motion to dismiss - which was denied. There seems to be a bit of a hurried frenzy to switch out, fabricate and or alter timing of documents signed and filed. I believe the prosecution thinks this will help them build a viable case. Since when was the prosecution suppose to fraudulently create and alter documents, etc to build a case? They are supposed to look at the evidence to decide if there is a case, that's it. They are suppsoed to be impartial as to that outcome. IF there is probable cause, THEN they have reason to pursue it, but to fabricate evidence? That's what you do when you are attempting to put someone in jail whether or not they committed a crime. That's not what we have prosecutors for.
From what I can tell, The BayCare Sound is a cash cow and most of the money is skimmed, never showing up on the books and not benefitting the people of Clearwater, but rather benefitting a few pockets.
