Summary

Bay Area Transparency posted a YouTube video titled "SALEM POLICE THINK THEY CAN TRESPASS YOU FROM PUBLIC FOR NO REASON!!!! SALEM, OR FIRST AMENDMENT." The video's title suggests it documents an interaction with Salem, Oregon police regarding alleged trespassing from a public area without justification. The creator appears to be asserting First Amendment rights in this context.

Why it may matter: This video is relevant to the research theme as it directly addresses potential conflicts between citizens exercising their First Amendment rights in public spaces and law enforcement actions. It highlights claims of government overreach and the application of laws like trespassing in situations where individuals believe they are lawfully present.

It's your boy, Bay Area Transparency. We're back at it once again. For this video, we are in the city of Salem, Oregon. In this video, we went to the Oregon Youth Authority office. I wanted to get some re-entry information for something I'm thinking about working on on the side, and they called the police on us for being there. We had a property manager who was a complete tyrant. Thank goodness she's not a police officer because you're going to see how she acted. And then the police came and I talked them off a ledge. You're going to see that, as well. Remember, these videos are always unscripted and posted in chronological order.

Okay. >> What's your question? >> So yeah, what Well, like I said, I'm I'm getting the shots and pictures I need. When I when I need help beyond that, I'll definitely let you guys know. >> Okay. >> But for now, I don't need anything until I'm ready. I got one track mind. So. >> Okay. I I can I I'll wait till you're ready. >> Okay. Yeah, it'll be a while. It'll be a while. >> I know you were on the fourth floor earlier. >> Yeah. Mhm. >> Just trying to figure out what what the point is of I I have no problem with you being here. I'm just cur- curiosity more than anything. >> Oh, yeah. I'm just Like I said, I mean pretty much what you see is what you get, right? Just taking video, taking pictures, and um just working on stuff. >> Are you interested in renting from this floor? We have open space available. >> No. No. No. No. That is Hulk. All hail the Incredible Hulk, baby. Oh, there's like three Hulks. We can't be Cowboys fan. Taking pictures all pretty far away from from the Cowboys, yeah. Yep. Recording and pictures. >> Interesting. >> If he asks any questions, just bring me an alarm clock. >> What is your name? I'm talking to them. >> Hi. >> How's it going? >> Yeah, we're here for you. >> Awesome. >> Yep, so we're going to try and ask you nicely to leave. >> Why would I have to leave? >> They don't want you here. >> Well, they didn't say that. >> They just called down to us, so. >> Well, I'm talking to the lady, and I got to get some information here. And I don't believe I have to. It's public. >> It's a private building. >> Right, this is a public office, so so when they signed the lease with the state with you guys >> I see where you're going. >> Yeah. They opened it to the public. So, you they can ask, but there's case law and court cases that say Yeah, so why would you even do it then? >> I know. So, you just want to >> I'm just filming. >> Causing a ruckus, man. >> No, no, no, no. I am not causing a ruckus. >> you want to try to cause a ruckus. >> No, if I >> people to respond. >> No, if I was, when you walked up, I would have said, "Fuck you, get away from me." You know, or something of that nature. No, I've just spoken to you normally like I would have another adult, right? So, yeah, no, trying to cause a ruckus or getting people to respond is not my intention. So. >> Yeah, um So, what do we do from here? >> Uh I don't know. I think you tell them, "Hey, you guys are public, and when you we signed the lease with you guys, we open this to public and he'll probably leave when he's done. Oh, I don't know. Dinner? Steak? What kind of steak you like? >> [laughter] >> Yeah, uh I don't know. I I don't know. I I have information to get right. I can go into it if you want. These are all rights I have. >> I know. >> All right, there's my first amendment right. Their feelings regarding it it means nothing, right? >> I I watch all that on there. >> Yeah, yeah, so Yeah, so >> So you kind of do the same thing, I mean not really writing a story, you're just >> Well, no, no, I am doing a story. Yeah, I'm doing something different, but it's but I do know the laws, right? Like I have to. >> do. Yeah. >> Yeah, yeah. So, um but yeah, no, I have things to do and once I'm done, I'll be gone. Sounds like your building your guys's building manager is uh pain in the ass. >> Well, she's yeah, she's got the cops on the way too. She's going to see if they can do anything, but >> For what? Why? Why would that >> I we we don't know what you're up to, I guess. >> But just what you see. I mean, I'm I'm in sweats. I clearly don't have anything dangerous on me, right? So, um but yeah, it doesn't even make sense. She didn't even come out and she was just immediately, "Who are you and what are you doing? You're in my building." It's like, "Lady, do do you get places in life talking to people like that?" Cuz I don't think anybody gets what they want by being a jerk, you know, so. >> Yeah, I don't think the employees behind the window wanted to be filmed, Mr. Pennis. That's why they called them. >> Yeah, well, you know what I'll say to that, right? >> What? >> They signed up to be public employees. They signed up to for the public to scrutinize them. So. >> Let me see if we're good. >> Yeah. It's It's It's simple. But why the police would be called, I have no clue. I mean, it's I have I've had nothing but great interaction so far here. I talked to >> Let's continue that. >> US Probation and they gave me all kind of information. They were super cool. >> Okay. >> And the Federal Highway asked at the door, he was super cool. Even these people have been fairly cool. Um and now you guys just it was just >> one. it was just your boss. >> They called They called downstairs. They don't want you up here, so. >> Well, I mean, come on. That's it's ridiculous like cuz I have a camera. >> Yeah, I think that's probably it. It seems Nobody wants to be filmed. >> I know, but when you Like I said, man, when you sign up for that, you know, just like you guys being security, you guys sign up if somebody's filming and you got to come talk to them. You understand that you're probably just going to be on camera, you know? So, I wonder if it was this guy cuz he seemed to have the problem cuz the lady didn't. His boss, she didn't have a problem at all. She was like, "Nope, you can be up here as long as you want. I know you're here and XYZ." And he kind of started a problem. He's like, "Why are you taking pictures?" And she turned around and said, "No, he can take pictures. If he asks questions, call me." So, I'm assuming it's him and you guys should probably talk to his boss cuz she was very aware that I could record in here. >> Yeah, yeah, we are, too. That You know, >> I see. Yeah, I can tell. >> Yeah, we're all Yeah, we know that you can. >> Awesome. >> We're just trying to get you to not. >> Right. No, I understand that. Um I mean, these rights are important, man, and rights are They're like muscles, right? If we don't use them, we lose them and you can go many places in this country and you can't even carry a firearm anymore, right? And we're just losing them left and right, so. >> Hey, what's the message you're trying to convey with your interviews and stuff that you're trying to do? >> Well, for these people, I'm actually trying to get I'm going to get just like I did with the US Probation. I'm trying to get a list of what they call re-entry resources so that when people I can put it out the information out there. So, when people are getting out and re-entering into society, they will have There's more resources now than there used to be 20 years ago, right? And people are getting clothes and shelter and halfway homes and help with cars and grant money for school and all this stuff, but people don't know it, right? And so, if we can get one central location like, "Hey, if you need resources, here's a huge list," which is what I'm compiling. Um I think that would be good for the people who are reentering. It'll give them a better chance at uh not offending again, right? The recidivism I don't know if you know what the recidivism rate in just the US alone is, but Oregon's pretty bad. California's even worse. Arizona's horrible. So, um federally we have a recidivism rate where prisons, jails, youth authorities are revolving door, and individuals are getting no help for a long time. Now, it's out there, so that's what that's what I'm doing, so. Part of it. >> That's good history. Yeah. And that's noble, actually. >> Yeah, it's it's important, right? I could say I'm catching predators, and somebody somebody hears a child predator, and I'm going to expose them when I see them. Could it be that? >> [laughter] >> I feel like when you say stuff like that, you're just trying to get a response. >> Well, it's a I'm joking, right? It's a joke. I'm making a joke. I'm trying to lighten me you know, make the situation a little more lighthearted. Um but anyways, if you would kindly let me get the window so I can talk to these people. I want to get the information I was telling the lady I was going to get. There's nobody in there. Um it's not a button. Oh, I'm sure I can knock and get get their get her attention, so. She told me when I was ready to give her a a holler, and she was going to come take my request. Um that's not her. Ma'am, are you close by? >> You said were you Did you have an LA in the system? Is >> No. >> Okay. I was just wondering cuz you said you had records, so that's why I was asking. >> No, no, I'm requesting records. >> Oh, requesting your >> Yeah, not not my records. No, no, public records. >> Okay. I got it. I got it. >> Um and part of that is going to be like re-entry resources, and like where is the money going, and what is being put towards and all that stuff. So, um but yeah, I mean maybe you can tell them, "Hey, he's trying to do a records request." Let That's literally the last thing. Once they take that, I'm gone. So, if they do that, click, it will be awesome. We'll probably be out of here within like 2 minutes. Maybe you can help facilitate that. >> I don't I mean I don't have access to that space or anything. >> Oh, okay. Well, I'll hang out, I guess, until they help me. >> Is there another way that you could get access to the records you're looking for? >> Well, there's there's many ways, right? But, um I'm [music] here, you know what I mean? So, I'm going to do it in person, right? Somebody here for the desk that can help do a records request, sir? And that's why I record. [music] >> [snorts] >> People just walk by and they ignore you when they are literally being paid by you to help you. I never understood that concept. I would think my camera would be the ultimate >> Yeah, nobody wants to be filmed. >> Well, well, I mean but we're we have emotional regulation, right? We're adults, right? And so, you're I'm sure you're regulating your emotion. Somebody up here that can help me? >> Excuse me, sir? >> Is somebody up here that can help? Trying to do a records request. >> Trying to do a records request? >> Mhm. Yeah, Oregon State public information >> I I know, I just uh Was there anyone in here when you first came in? >> Yes, so there was a a a lady here um for a while and I told her that when I was ready, I'd let her know. I think maybe she's your guys's manager or something, but she popped through and was like, "Well, let me let me know when you're ready." And she's been off and now I can't get a hold of her. You guys don't have a button or a bell or anything like that. >> What was her name, sir? >> Ben. >> No, her name, the woman you spoke to. >> Oh, shoot, I don't know. I don't know. I didn't even ask her. >> Okay. Let me try to see if I can find somebody to help. >> Awesome. Yeah, you know, I understand people not wanting to be on camera, but we got to regulate our emotions, right? And understand that it's going to happen, you know, when you sign up for these jobs, like people are going to come, they're going to record. And it's their right. For instance, right? Say I was a kid who was touched by one of these employees or maybe in the state facilities and there's a lot of those lawsuits going on now, right? And and say I was scared to death of these people and so I wanted to come bring a camera and record my interaction with them. >> Yeah. >> You know, and they're going to call the police on this guy and get him and try to get him in trouble for exercising our first amendment right because something happened to him. It's just a crazy thought process, so I don't understand it. And um, you know, make yourself look unprofessional. It just doesn't seem to I can't compute it. >> I was I'm sorry, but they're working on somebody to try to come help you. >> Okay. Well, as long as somebody's coming, thank you. I appreciate it. Oh, so this guy is a up front guy. Uh sir, is that lady that um told me to told you to call when I was ready to get my records, is she available? I'm trying to get a records request done now. >> Oh, that you can't do that here. >> Uh yeah, for sure. Why not? >> All the information is on our online on our webpage. >> Where is it? >> Our webpage, oia.org. >> But in person though, I'm trying to do it. >> don't have any records here. >> Hey, buddy, how you doing? Officer Mathison, please. >> Good. >> You good? >> Yep. >> Did someone ask you that to leave? >> Well, I'm trying to get public records. I don't think that would matter. Right? It's a public office. >> Someone could still tell you to leave though, right? >> No, I mean, they could say it, but what why would it matter? It's public. It's It's open to the public. I haven't done anything to be asked to leave. >> Okay. Well, I've trespassed people from here before and taken them to jail. >> Illegally? Are you aware of state of >> illegally. >> State of Oregon versus Murphy? I'm an I'm an independent You should look it up. So, I'm It's a 2024 case. So, I'm an independent journalist doing a story. >> Got you. >> This is my first amendment right, and I'm here to get public records. So, what Oregon versus Murphy says is that you can't trespass somebody from public offices >> Okay. >> if it violates their constitutional rights in any way. So, if I'm here with a first amendment doing something under the first amendment and trying to get public records, you're not able to just >> Okay. >> violate my rights in that way. >> it going right now as far as getting those public records? >> Well, so at first they were cool. One, they didn't even ask me to leave. They sent these people up here and we talked and they're like, "Yeah, we understand. You can be here. You can record. We know." Um >> Yeah, I'm not I'm not I'm not necess- I'm not >> Well, this is why they want me to >> Yeah, I'm not I'm not worried about that. >> This is why they want me to leave. And so, I am, right? Because this is my first amendment right. >> Okay. Uh >> So, anyways, now Well, yeah, I was trying to tell you. So, now what I was doing is I've asked a couple people and was like, "Where is the lady who was up here?" cuz I told her I was going to get records. She said, "Let me know when you're ready." and she's going to come back. So, now I'm at the point where I'm trying to file the records request. So, the front guy said, "You don't do it here." but the law says you can do it in person here. So, once I do that, I'm gone. I'm done, right? But I need to do the records request before I go. If they're going to deny me from their boss and not like the little desk guy, that's fine. They can do that and then, you know, I'll take my action from there. But other than that, I need to get >> I'm so sorry, too. Did they say they're going to help you or are they saying they're not going to? >> No, they said they're going to help me. >> Okay. How long does that usually take? >> I don't Oh, well, I'm waiting for them. Oh, here she is right here. >> Perfect. >> It is I'm ready to do the records request with you guys now. I've been asking for you. I don't know if they told you. >> No. Awesome. >> Um well, I was in a meeting. >> Oh, got you. >> So, you have to go online to get your records request. And let me let me just pull it up for you. >> Well, we can do them on person per the law or in person per the law. >> Okay. >> So, cuz I'm trying to do it verbally like it's written in the law. See? So, you guys are here for background because of the building management lady didn't like me and my camera. All right. >> Yeah, she said >> These people don't seem to have an issue with me. >> She says this is a private She says this is a private building. >> The The building's privately owned, right? And that's part of what I'm going to get in the records request. Now, when a privately owned building leases out to a public entity, for instance, if the police department was privately owned, right? They sign part of the lease and an understanding that the building will be open to members of the public from that your open hours and and people have a right to come there. So, it doesn't matter if it's private I know people confuse it. I don't just because I've studied these laws extensively and I know them like the back of my hand. Look up Look up State of Oregon versus Murphy. It's Donald Murphy. Cuz there's a couple. >> a lot of stuff like this. Usually, it's like a dispatch to a liquor store or like a a gas station or something. Someone's refusing leave and the owner wants them to leave. >> Right, and that's Yeah, cuz you're going to get your You're going to get in trouble here. >> OSP like state state jurisdiction when people go to like federal buildings or not federal buildings, but state buildings and stuff. That's >> Right, and you guys are Salem PD. You're I'm surprised you're not state troopers cuz they're state officers in the state of Oregon. >> Uh their jurisdiction. I think it's ours cuz I've been here a couple times before. >> Got you. >> Just only actually once. I've only been to So, this is my second time I've actually ever been here. >> Got you. And what was your name and badge number again? >> Matthews. >> badge numbers. We have identifiers. 379. >> And what about you, sir? >> Shaw. >> And identifier? >> 508. >> 508. Awesome. So, yeah, I'm Like I said, I'm done. I have all the pictures. I just need the records request and a copy and then I'm gone. >> Cool. >> All right. It shouldn't be hard. It should have kind of wasted your time. But, please so you don't violate somebody's rights, look up that law. >> I try not to violate people's rights. >> But, when you arrest them from public because of a constitutionally protected activity, it's it's it is, right? And this is that actually it's not a huge case. It's not like ninth circuit or or supreme court. But, it's the Oregon State Appellate Court that ruled on this in 2024. So. >> Okay. >> Yeah, it's it's important. >> Looks like I got to do some homework, huh? >> Yeah, I mean we can all learn something, right? Like >> All right. Yeah, well shoot. Dude, I'm going to probably get out of here. >> [laughter] >> Take care, man. Thank you. Thank you guys for your help. >> Yeah, take care, buddy. >> All right. So. I thought that was going to unfortunately turn into a confrontation. It absolutely did not. >> awesome guys. >> great. Yeah, they did. They were they were awesome. Um Now, let me go ahead and stop that right there real quick, Bay Fam. Now, I said right here in this video they did awesome. But, replaying it and hearing that cop say psych like that after he said I have some homework to do, basically saying I ain't going to do no homework on it. I don't care what law you're talking about. Whatever. I realized they didn't do as good as I thought they did. Now, I was calm and nice and kind of soft with these officers and explain the law to them. And that's why I was able to talk them off the ledge and they just went ahead and left. They didn't want any other part of it. And also the public employees weren't sitting there complaining. If I would have told these cops, well, you ain't going to arrest me from this building. You ain't going to trespass me from this building. Or I have a right to be here and I don't care what you say. Or just said, you know what? I ain't here to talk to you guys. I don't answer questions. I believe they would have taken it a step further. Now, it wouldn't have changed the legalities of it, no matter what I said. If I'm there recording doing a story for news purposes, it does not change the legalities, no matter what my words are to these officers regarding what they're saying to me. But, it would have brought their ego in. It would have brought their superiority complexes and or inferiority complexes or whatever. It just would have brought their emotions into the equation and I believe at that point they absolutely would have reacted or acted based on the way they were feeling emotionally and that would have been the problem. So, I don't think they did great. I think I did a good job at talking them off the ledge is what happened. And this is the first place I had stopped in Salem. So, [snorts] I wasn't going too hard. I was really trying to feel the cops out and see what they actually knew and where their training was at. Right here, I realized they knew nothing. And then the next video that I go to right after this one gets way more crazier and you guys will see that here in the near future. Let's go ahead and get back to the video. >> Goodness. One more time, sir? >> We're printing the records request. We Is it for youth records? Are you the father of the >> public records. It's It's not for any like confidential records. It's public records. I want I What I'm looking for partly is information on like re-entry um re-entry efforts that are going in from the state of Oregon and where the money's coming from and what we're doing for re-entered youth. Um so, that I can I'm compiling a big list and I want to put it out publicly. So, anybody that's uh getting out from anywhere in the US gets the help that they need. >> Sure. >> [clears throat] >> So, that's partly what I'm looking for. >> Absolutely. And I'm just curious, why why not just ask for that? >> Well, I was I was getting my my pictures and stuff first. That's what I had told you. I'm going to ask for some records, but right now I'm just taking the pictures. Uh I had told you I'm one track minded. So, it's like if I stop that, I'm going to totally just be screwed up. >> Okay. So, being on the fourth floor before you came up here >> I was getting the same stuff. I can show you. It's in my sweatshirt. I was getting the US probation and parole and then I was looking for funds into the highway. So, yeah, it's all the same stuff. >> So, you are not a former youth? >> No. >> Okay. >> No, no. I'm just getting public records. >> There you are. This is the form. >> Well, if you guys could fill it out, it'd be great cuz I don't have my reading glasses. I usually don't say that, but it's a reasonable accommodation. So, it's written or verbal. That's why I'm here to do it in person. >> Okay. I am not expert in how to do this. Did you schedule Did you let us know that you were coming ahead of time so we could have someone here who knows how to do this? >> No. It It's not required in the in the public information act. >> Well, let me >> It's actually really easy. I only need a few things. You just write it down and then forward it to you send it to and you guys actually have a certain unallocated time to respond. So, you don't even >> I know that part. I've just never done this part before and I'm We don't We're not like in order Not everyone works here in person who knows this stuff as well as I do. So, I need a minute to figure out how I'm going to be able to help you. >> Take your time. Kind of. Yeah, I'll be a little late, I guess. >> That's what I I'm I'm supposed to be in a meeting right now. >> Oh, yeah. I have an appointment in a bit like 20 minutes. I'm sorry. I hope I'm not holding you from your meeting. >> I'm going to let them know that I'm running late. Okay. Do you have a pen? >> I can definitely bring you one. >> Okay. >> Here you go. >> So, um what is your name? >> I'll do it anonymously.
