More Than 60 'Stop Cop City' Activists Hit With RICO Charges in Georgia

Defying RICO Indictment, Faith Leaders Chain Themselves to Bulldozer to Stop Cop City

FIVE PARTICIPANTS OF the Defend the Atlanta Forest movement broke into the construction site of the planned police training compound known as “Cop City” on Thursday morning and chained themselves to a bulldozer. This is by no means the first direct action Stop Cop City protesters have taken to halt construction of the vast facility, but it carries renewed significance just two days after Georgia prosecutors announced extreme and overreaching racketeering charges against 61 other movement activists.

The charges, filed Tuesday under Georgia’s expansive Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, known as RICO, are an effort to chill the movement and paint one of the most resilient anti-racist, environmentalist efforts in history as a criminal enterprise. In response, activists on the ground are choosing solidarity and standing their ground.

The stakes are high. For one, activists want to ensure that Cop City — which would be the largest police training facility in the nation and would decimate crucial forest land in a majority Black community — will never be built. Thursday’s action also makes clear that efforts to criminalize whole social movements will only invite further resistance.

All five protesters, including two Unitarian Universalist clergy members, have been arrested by the DeKalb County Police. “Those five people have been taken into custody and we are working with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation regarding charges on these individuals,” the department said in a statement to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. This is just the latest example of Georgia law enforcement treating typical acts of civil disobedience with a heavy-handed, multiagency response.

Police also downed and confiscated a drone belonging to a documentary crew attempting to film the construction site protest, in a possible infringement on press freedoms.

“Despite the repressive tactics of authorities who wish to disenfranchise the community and charge protestors with domestic terrorism and RICO, people of faith will continue to act to resist the militarization of our society,” said Rev. Dave Dunn, who was among those arrested, in a statement released by organizers.

Thursday’s action offers a defiant lesson in how movement participants can choose to respond when faced with state repression — and the efforts by police, government leaders, and prosecutors to crush the Defend the Atlanta Forest movement have indeed been extraordinary.

“The domestic terrorism and RICO charges against protesters are meant to scare us, or else to orient all of our energy and resources around supporting protesters who have been arrested,” Darcy, an Atlanta resident and movement participant told me. Darcy, like many others in the movement, withheld their last name for fear of law enforcement retaliation — an understandable choice, given how weak grounds for arrest and serious charges have been.

“By shutting down Cop City construction today, clergy and students showed that everyday people can take bold actions to block this facility from being built,” they said, “and that our biggest protection against repression is a movement that wins.”

THE SWEEPING, 109-PAGE RICO indictment paints the decentralized and diverse movement as a criminal enterprise, citing social justice activities such as “mutual aid,” writing “zines,” and “collectivism” as proof of criminal conspiracy. Dozens of people named in the indictment also face malicious state domestic terrorism charges, based on flimsy grounds.

Others facing RICO and money-laundering charges did little more than raise and distribute donations to support arrestees and provide materials for engaging in First Amendment activities, like making protest signs. Also named in the indictment are individuals previously arrested on felony charges for handing out flyers that named a police officer connected to the killing of Manuel “Tortuguita” Terán, a forest defender who was shot 57 times during a multiagency raid on the Atlanta Forest protest encampment in January.

Emails exposed Kansas police chief trying to find a law to justify his raid on a local newspaper

The Messenger has obtained emails exposing the Marion County Police Chief trying to invent a justification for raiding the local newspaper.

The news site filed an open-records request seeking the emails of suspended cop Gideon Cody as he searched for a law that would enable him to get the FBI to back him up on a wide-ranging subpoena.

Cody, who joined the force after he said he was retiring from the Kansas City Police Department, began his work in June 2023. The documents include all emails beginning at that time as well as messages sent between city officials that were attached to the emails.

According to the Marion County Record, the owners were raided over a "tip" that the newspaper was going to write about a local restaurant owner, Kari Newell, who was accused of having a DUI and driving without a license. The source said that the local police were aware of it and ignored the violation. The newspaper didn't write the story, but reporters used the Kansas Department of Revenue website to confirm information about the accusations, the Kansas Reflector explained. The KDR website is public.

Newell later "acknowledged the accuracy of the information and said she understood that coming forward with allegations about it might expose the information rather than preserve its confidentiality."

The reporter then told police about the allegations they'd received. They did not seek out the information; it was merely sent to them along with Marion Vice Mayor Ruth Herbel, who was also raided.

The police chief claimed that they believed the reporters were engaged in criminal behavior based on a "tip." That criminal behavior he alleged was obtaining the information from the KDR website he claimed was unauthorized and illegal.

According to the documents obtained, Cody was searching for ways to allege wire fraud among the crimes committed for the information. In an email to Marion County lawyer Joel Ensey, titled "Crimes?" Cody asks if the paper violated the Driver Privacy Protection Act (DPPA) by looking up the information. The federal law governs the release of DMV records.

"He told Ensey that his understanding is that the DPPA 'establishes guidelines and restrictions on the release, use, and disclosure of personal information collected by DMVs, including driver’s license and motor vehicle records' — and that, in his interpretation, the newspaper might have committed wire fraud by entering the business owner's information into the website, accessing her records, and selecting an incorrect answer when asked for the 'verification of your eligibility to receive the requested records,'" said the Messenger report.

"Obtaining a DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles) report by falsely clicking on a reason for download, especially if done with the intent to deceive or defraud, could potentially be considered a form of wire fraud," Cody continues, according to the report.

The raid happened three days later.

The Kansas Department of Revenue released a statement after the raid saying it isn't illegal to access the records on their website.

(bolding mine)

That is, by no stretch of the imagination a "good fuck up." You raid the offices of people connected to a mayor, you either have to be the defacto person running the area, or you've got to have all your ducks in a row. There's ways that they can drop the hammer on you, by not only bringing in state but Federal folks. If you're a small-town perp, you're not going to have the money to bribe the Feds.

Does anyone here know what exactly is meant by “fully certified as a law enforcement officer”? Does it mean he went through and successfully graduated from the police academy? Or does he have a degree in criminal justice? Or is there more?

"Hate YouTube" being nothing more than "people saying things I don't like". There's nothing "hateful" there. That's just one of those blanket labels you throw around to discredit facts you can't refute. I've never denied I watch YouTube channels. You haven't "caught" me at anything. Now address the facts or shut your cock socket.
