“Don’t you touch that stuff ... You assholes!”
“Get out of my house ... I don’t want you in my house!” Meyer can be seen yelling at one point in the video. “Don’t touch any of that stuff! This is my house!” Meyer shouted at another.
“Don’t you touch that stuff! This is my house. You a**holes,” Meyer yelled at the police. “Get ’em out of here! They’re here.” "What are you doing over there going through my things?” Meyer asked police. “Get out of my way! I want to see what they’re doing. I don’t care what they’re doing. What are you doing? Those are personal things.”
A massive amount of outrage followed the controversial raid. Many have claimed that it likely violated federal law surrounding searches on journalists and even the First Amendment.
Marion Police Chief Gideon Cody, who led the raid, faced scrutiny in his own community.
“As far as Chief Cody goes, he can take his high horse he brought into this community and giddy-up on out of town,” Darvin Markley, a Marion resident, proclaimed at a previous City Council meeting. “The man needs to go. He needs to be fired.”
Joan Meyer’s son, Eric, reportedly compared the police raid to the Gestapo.
Since that fateful day, a prosecutor has stated that there was insufficient evidence to justify the searches and seizures, and that some of the previously confiscated computers and cell phones have already been returned.
A probe by The Kansas Bureau of Investigation remains ongoing.
