The Keene Police Department Fan Page on Facebook is dedicated to encouraging professionalism and transparency in the Keene Police Department. In addition, it can be a useful tool for identifying police officers and sharing important information relevant to the Keene Police Department’s “activities.”
If you have photographs (preferably names as well) of those employed at the Keene Police Department, please consider sharing them on the Keene Police Department Fan Page or emailing them to kanga@sover.net – to help the two Keene-based activists administering the page keep it up to date.
The Occupy Keene campout, which had grown from one tent the first night, to two last night was targeted by Keene police. Campers were threatened with a violation of city ordinance if they did not leave, which they decided to do. What will happen next? Stay tuned here to find out, or better yet, drop into the Occupy Keene facebook page and discussion group.
Plus, watch “Free Keene TV” tonight to see a live interview with one of the Occupy Keene campers, Craig, at 7pm on Cheshire TV – channel 8 on Time Warner in the Keene area and online via Ustream here.
Free Keene’s Ademo visits Wisconsin and discovers police officers no longer have human names, but instead are “identified” by letter-and-number combinations. When asked, none divulge their human names. Creepy video courtesy of CopBlock.org:
Free Concord’s Garret Ean provides another detailed update on the Manchester mass chalking arrests from this summer. In it, Manchester bureaucrats claim that the video footage from multiple security cameras at MPD doesn’t exist – how convenient!
MANCHESTER — A video showing a confrontation between a Manchester West High student and the school’s resource officer last week was not a setup, according to the student who filmed it.
But Mike Proulx, 17, says when he saw Detective Darren Murphy approach his friend Frank Harrington in the school cafeteria last Monday, he did think about the two men he and Harrington recently met who call themselves CopBlock and encourage civilians to videotape police officers.
So Proulx pulled out his iPod Touch and hit record.
What happened between Murphy and Harrington led to the student’s arrest and an internal investigation by the Manchester Police Department, expected to be completed early this week.
Adam Mueller and Pete Eyre, the founders of CopBlock.org, said they met Proulx and Harrington by happenstance a few weeks ago at a park on the city’s west side. They told the youths about their crusade to encourage people to film police officers on the job and gave them a DVD featuring videos of their activities in New Hampshire and other states. (more…)
