@wfsbnews: Two first amendment auditors were arrested after a confrontation with a state police sergeant in Groton. Video of the interaction is going viral online. First amendment auditors are people who post videos interacting with government employees and police online. Sean Reyes runs the YouTube channel Long Island Audit. On Friday, Reyes drove an electronic billboard of a previous interaction to the state troopers house in Groton. They had questions regarding Fahey’s overtime, which made up about 38% of his pay in 2023 and around 36% in 2024.When Reyes knocked on his door, Fahey told him to leave. As Reyes and his cameraman are leaving, Fahey comes back outside with a gun is his hand. He also appears to spit in Reyes’ face. Groton police responded and arrested Reyes and his cameraman. #connecticut #localnews #breakingnews #police #wfsb #lawenforcement #firstamendmentaudit #grotonct #statepolice #firstamendment #youtube #youtuber #arrested #crimetok #policeofficer #longislandaudit #overtime

Not to side with the cop… but the guy was on the cops property… he has a right to defend your property. You harassed him.

What about that OT? That is tax payers money! Certainly an investigation now needs to take place to either clear the official or indictment

Comes on his property and starts an altercation. "He's the aggressor."

So let me get this straight a police sergeant allegedly comes out with a gun, spits in someone’s face, and the First Amendment auditors are the ones arrested? This is exactly why we need people holding public officials accountable on camera. If the public can’t ask questions about government overtime or spending without being met with threats and handcuffs, then the First Amendment means nothing. This isn't law enforcement this is intimidation.

spitting in the face of a citizen is NEVER acceptable behavior from a cop.

I like Sean’s videos and usually agree with him 100% however he went to the officers house to confront and be confrontational instead of the department then he went down a private drive that was marked private at that point he should have gone no further. You can’t have it both ways.

instead of assuming that the overtime isn’t accurate, follow him when he works all the overtime hours so he can see what’s really happening. The shortage of Connecticut Troopers is significant so naturally employees jump at the OT. It’s worth it, who wouldn’t do it? CONNECTICUT isn’t Massachusetts. And this guy is looking for a lawsuit. His full time job is to provoke public workers. He’s hated in New York.

Good luck beating that case. Spitting is 100% assault we all know that. And the cop should be charged. Also, long driveway doesn’t mean private property. Anybody can knock on anybody’s door. Not like he hopped a gate to get to his front door.

I’m not sure how people crying corruption don’t see this guy showing up to his PRIVATE HOME, where his family is and refusing to leave and being confrontational a problem. I’d like to see those ppl commenting have random ppl show up to their property and have someone refuse to leave Lmaoo.
