Occurring recently in an area of Los Angeles County called South Gate, 34-year-old teacher Beatriz Paez was assaulted by an unnamed U.S. Marshal while she was attempting to film a federal law enforcement operation related to a local biker gang.
As Paez is stepping away from the scene, the deputy U.S. Marshal lunges at Paez and wrestles away her smartphone. Paez is heard screaming “Oh! No! Don’t do that!” during the scuffle. He then smashes the smartphone on the sidewalk, stomps on the mobile device and kicks the broken phone towards Paez.

According to Paez’s account of the incident, the law enforcement officers claimed that she was interfering with the investigation.
Should citizens be allowed to inteffer with government operations?
Should someone be allowed to film you some activity - then put it on YouTube?
