Heicklen: "I arrived at 8:45 am at the Los Angeles Municipal County Courthouse at 1945 S. Hill Street on April 15, 2011..."
"…There was a long line of people along the wall of the courthouse…"
"…I approached the line and started to distribute the fully informed jury pamphlet…"
"…Immediately a county sheriff approached and said that I could not distribute on court property…"
"…At first I ignored him, but he was joined by other sheriffs. I was informed that I would be arrested…"
"…Three deputy sheriffs came over and said that I would be arrested unless I moved…"
"…Deputy Sheriff Sergeant Long, #2991, approached and yelled at the other deputy sheriffs to uncuff us and leave us alone…"
"…At 11:00 am, I returned to the courthouse wall and distributed the flyers to people in the line entering the courthouse…"
"…At 11:30 am we left the courthouse. I had passed out about 30 flyers."
Photographer and Tyranny Fighter John Burton: "You should know that I was ordered to desist before I got any actual shots of the arrest-- but I got all the players."
