Whitley County Schools BANNED mom Nicole Divine from school bc she "recorded w/o permission" (in 1 party state) & posted video of bus driver allegedly threatening to whip kids w his belt. His pants fell & he joked abt his boxers. Kids reported sexual harassment.
Scheffler’s arrest seemed fishy from the start, and now the officers involved are under investigation themselves. Some body camera footage has been released which doesn’t help much to understand what happened. The other footage released, however, doesn’t look good for the arresting officers.
After the arrest, Scheffler posted this to his Instagram:
Detective Bryan Gillis did not turn on his body camera during the incident as required.
The Louisville Metro Police Department detective who arrested golf star Scottie Scheffler last week violated the department’s policies by failing to turn on his body camera during the incident, officials said Thursday.
An internal investigation found that Detective Bryan Gillis did not turn on his body-worn camera during the encounter, LMPD Chief Jacquelyn Gwinn-Villaroel said in a news conference.
While Scheffler’s public statement on what happened was chalking it up to a simple misunderstanding, the arresting officer’s report … well … painted a different picture.
Gillis stopped Scheffler and attempted to give him instructions, but Scheffler “refused to comply and accelerated forward,” according to the report. Gillis was dragged “to the ground” and suffered “pain, swelling, and abrasions to his left wrist,” according to the report.

Officer Gillis’ statement on the arrest:
“While directing traffic in front of Gate 1 the PGA personnel stopped a bus from entering Gate 1. I observed a vehicle traveling in the opposing lanes coming at me. I stopped the driver and advised him he could not proceed because of the bus. He demanded to be let in, and proceeded forward against my directions. I was dragged/knocked down by the driver. I then proceeded to arrest the driver.”

That’s a very serious accusation.
Until now, because Detective Gillis didn’t turn on his body camera, we didn’t have any proof of his accusations against Scheffler. Now we have footage from a pole camera of the incident. Have a look:
I didn’t see anyone get dragged or knocked down by Scheffler during the incident. It appears Detective Bryan Gillis may not have told the truth in his report. That would certainly explain why there’s an investigation into the officer’s actions that day.
Exclusive: PHM Board Member, Matt Chaffee, Responds To Demands He Resign
Penn-Harris Madison school board member, Matt Chaffee, has responded to last night’s special session vote demanding he step down from the school board with an exclusive press release to me.
In an exclusive press release to me, Matt responds to the vote and hints at what’s to come regarding the allegations against him.
Last month, Real News Michiana published a story accusing Matt Chaffee of hypocrisy in demanding PHM board members resign in the wake of numerous violations by their members. The claim is that Matt was himself engaging in activity that warranted his resignation.
Most local media outlets showed up to last night’s vote to call for Chaffee’s resignation. The media was disinterested in previous press releases they received highlighting several examples of the board president, Chris Riley, and his actions, and the subsequent calls by Matt Chaffee for Chris Riley to resign as a result.
These previous issues included, but are not limited to:
The board losing an illegal SAC complaint with the state.
A parent winning a Civil Rights complaint against the board.
The harassing of parents critical of the board. Including police and employer harassment.
Board President Chris Riley committing several policy violations.
And refusal to punish PHM faculty caught violating policies.
None of those well-documented issues have caught the attention of local media. This angle, however, did.
The same goes for the teacher‘s union representatives who circulated an email recruiting people to be at last night’s meeting. They were never interested in showing up to address proven issues with the PHM school board previously.
I wanted to point out that the media has been completely disinterested in corruption and abuse on the PHM board, but the moment a conservative member faced criticism, they showed up.
Here’s Matt Chaffee’s response to what happened last night and the allegations against him:
@Facebook still has my page under reduced distribution and threaten to remove it daily for COVID posts linking directly to scientific research. Most on government websites. https://t.co/ns4pLz1gyA

While claiming NPR isn't propaganda, some employees are spreading propaganda.
NPR gets roughly 10-12% of its funding from government at all levels. That's without accounting for taxpayer funded university funding of NPR. They don't get just the 2% federal number claimed.
