Channel 5 dispatched two reporters to the house of a rape victim on June 26th. They sought to interview her after the arrest of her rapist, who committed a particularly brutal attack.
She didn't welcome the arrival of TV news media at her house and called the cops in Newburgh Heights Ohio.
Police Chief John T. Majoy on Sunday posted to Facebook the body cam video of his interaction with the reporters from Channel 5 at the scene.
"So News 5 shows up to the house of a rape victim," Majoy said in the video, before asking them why, noting that he's never in his two decade-plus career had a news station show up at the house of a rape victim, and asking them which of their managers gave them the assignment.
He tells them they're on body camera and that he will be sharing the video publicly.
"I'm without words, extreme displeasure," Majoy said.
The video was posted and quickly drew a predictable response from online commenters who joined in lambasting the media and, as Channel 5 news director Jeff Harris would later tell Chief Majoy, making threats.
It was removed from Facebook earlier this week and replaced with a message from the chief.
The assignment editors that sent these two to the rape victims home have been fired.
