My guess is charges will be dropped and everyone will hope it will all go away. And it will unless she sues and or outside parties become interested. As far as I can tell there is no stomach to pursue it by anyone in Dawson County, including Democrats.
If Nydia decides to sue for an illegal arrest the Johnny Burt and the GOP have hung themselves by their own petard. IMO only Deal or his GOP apparatus had the authority to address Ms. Tiddale's activities. If Wooten took his direction from Johnny Burt then it became illegal at that point. If he took direction from the GOP operatives that will require examination of her right to film vs their efforts to secure law enforcement to force her to desist.
I think the Dawson GOP chair was obviously attempting to exclude the GOP from accountability with her cameo appearance.
The Political Vine offers a plausible version of what probably happened and provoke the Republicans to do what they did. It is a long and detailed read but worthwhile.
lol The whole thing shouldn't have happened. Deal was in charge of the event. He made the public invitation. Only his people had the standing to complain about the taping. The redneck Deputy Captain should have known that. It is all there when we see how Ms. Tisdale's efforts to remind him of that were ignored. Ignorance of he law is no excuse even for a Captain Deputy..
Link to the Deal created FB event page inviting the public to the Burt's Farm event where videoblogger Nydia Tisdale was arrested.. I have also saved a screen shot in case they take it down.
