Gold Meritorious SP
Chicago attorney Alex Hageli who has spent years protesting Scientology in Chicago & Clearwater was set up to be arrested for trespassing on Sunday. Of course, it was Scilon bitch Sarah Heller that called lied to police & initiated the arrest.

"Not that it matters, but they gave no warning about departing. They didn't say anything to me. Ok, here's the full story.
First, this had nothing to do with the injunction. And one nugget I picked up yesterday is that even OSA acknowledges that, even if the injunction applied and even if I violated it, its not an arrestable offense (the officer commended victim Sarah for so acknowledging). So yet another nail in the coffin of the injunction.
Second, this had to do with a trespass warning I originally received in March 2014 that was totally legit. During my last trip down here over Thanksgiving last year I raided and the cult renewed that original warning (which I didn't know you could do, but OK). I raided all week doing what I always do and they called CPD out multiple times (documented here by me at the time). Each time the officers seemed really confused about what was going on. They initially told me to stand at the corners of the SP Building but I felt they had no legal authority to support that position so I kept doing what I always do and no arrest.
Then yesterday I go out and do what I always do in the morning and then in the evening. In the middle of doing what I always do yesterday evening the two cruisers pulled up. The officer that arrested me said it was for violating the trespass warning, specifically for "blocking the exits" as written on the warning.
I did not at any time block anyone from ingress or egress into the SP Building, but he said that based on my position at the time he pulled up he had probable cause to arrest me. You'll note that on the affidavit the officer stated that I was "walking back in [sic] forth" in front of the property. Walking on a public sidewalk past a stairwell that spills out on that sidewalk does not constitute "blocking the exits."
That's what I'll tell the judge (if it gets that far). Setting up meetings CPD contacts today to get further clarification on all this. Just a hassle more than anything. I'm surprised it took this long, actually."
