This video was taken by a friend of California artist Thomas Flournoy who was beaten by officers with the Santa Rosa Police Department during a violent arrest for obstructing officers following a local event.  Sonoma County Deputy District Attorney Andrew Lukas has reportedly requested that a judge produce a court order to demand the removal of this video from YouTube.  Lukas claims that the video depicts a “limited view” of the incident and could cause a bias among potential jurors.  We have re-uploaded the video and and are making he original MP4 file available for download so that others may share the video as they wish.
