Former Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke Jr. will face the long arm of the law stemming from a January 15, 2017 incident in which Clarke allegedly ordered six sheriff's deputies to take airplane passenger Daniel Black aside for interrogation after Black reportedly shot Clarke a disapproving look on the flight.
Black asked if Clarke was the notorious sheriff, which Clarke explained he was. Black moved towards the back of the plane shaking his head. Clarke asked Black if he had a problem and Black shook his head no. There was no further interaction on the plane. But after the two came off the plane, Black was taken into custody by six deputies waiting at the gate for him. -RawStory
While federal prosecutors in the Eastern District of Wisconsin dropped the case due to "insufficient proof," Black has filed a civil suit against Clarke for calling him a "snowflake" on Facebook, along with several posts by the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office social media accounts. Several of the charges were thrown out by a Judge on Friday, however it was decided that Clarke should face trial over whether or not his Social Media posts at the time were threats or retaliation against Black.
In a Facebook post after the incident, Clarke said "Next time he or anyone else pulls this stunt on a plane they may get knocked out. The Sheriff said he does not have to wait for some goof to assault him. He reserves the reasonable right to pre-empt a possible assault."
The account then posted "Sheriff Clarke regrets that he cannot attend this juvenile, leftist, anti-cop tantrum. He is pleased that he has their attention however."
In Late December, court documents revealed that the FBI executed a search warrant shortly after the incident on Clarke's "dclarke.cowboy@gmail.com" account shortly after the incident, along with the Milwaukee sheriff's department's social media accounts.
According to a court filing, the FBI received a packet of reports from the Forensic Audit Manager for the Milwaukee County Office of the Comptroller with Black's complaint. The Milwaukee investigator concluded, in part "Clarke used his official position as Sheriff of Milwaukee County in excess of his lawful authority to direct his deputies to stop and question Black without legal justification."
Shortly thereafter, the FBI obtained a warrant.
After several media outlets reported on the incident, Clarke lashed out - tweeting "When LYING LIB MEDIA makes up FAKE NEWS to smear me, the ANTIDOTE is go right at them. Punch them in the nose & MAKE THEM TASTE THEIR OWN BLOOD," along with several other angry tweets.
Which resulted in a temporary suspension from Twitter.
Clarke also tweeted a photo of a letter from the Department of Justice with their decision not to prosecute, saying "Lib media did a drive-by hit job on me today with a FAKE NEWS STORY that I am under investigation by the FBI. It s a LIE. Last MAY the US Atty s office found NO EVIDENCE of wrongdoing for doing police work. Lying Lib media took a story from LAST MAY & reports this today as new."

That said, Clarke still has to find out how a Wisconsin jury feels about the Sheriff "cyberbullying" a "snowflake."

Anyone on the left, that is.
Many police chiefs and sheriffs around the country are directly responsible for deaths of innocent Americans due to releasing violent illegal aliens on to the street, but not one gets arrested.
I guess calling someone a snowflake and questioning them is a far greater offense than accessory to murder, according to the FBI.

Has everyone gone insane? A civil suit for being called a snowflake? Taking a man aside with a bunch of deputies because he gave you a disapproving look? This is what passes for choices in this country. We're supposed to care about either of these assholes.
Most cops expect civilians to immediately drop to their knees and begin licking their jack-boots.
Woe be unto any "snowflake" who would dare to disrespect a cop.
Clarke clearly abused his authority when he directed his deputies to harass the plaintiff after receiving a nonverbal, uncomplimentary gesture.

That's not why the suit was filed.
It's about the actions that Clarke took against Dan Black after he shook his head in disapproval at the Sheriff.

Deprivation of Constitutional Rights under color of law is a federal crime.
It probably happens every day in Police State USSA, but no compelling evidence can prove it.
If it weren't for the disclosure of Sheriff Clarke's written communications with his deputies, legal action would have likely not been undertaken.

Given the number of attacks on police, the Sheriff had a reasonable concern and was within his authority to stop and question said snowflake.

So it should be illegal to look at a cop and shake your head in apparent disapproval?
It should be legal for that cop to then detain that person, harass and possibly arrest them if that person "becomes an asshole"?

You can't win this argument sero. It baffles my mind that right-wingers, who claim to love freedom, are always the first to defend the cops. Conservatism, from a social values viewpoint is some fucked up shit. This sheriff is a bully, plain and simple. I hope Black sues the fuck out of him.
In reply to Deprivation of… by serotonindumptruck
My problem with this is that the case only goes forward because he's a conservative. Had he been a liberal all would be fine. The snowflake would have already been executed twice and not a word of complaint in the press. Things are really out of balance in that regard. Trump says he wants to get along with Russians and he's a russian puppet. Hillary gets bagloads of cash and "oh no problem would you like us to bless the cash and make the sign of the cross over it?".
All this stinks of Deep State.

Believe me when I say I am no cheerleader for cops. But can it be proven that the head shaking is why Clarke took action? Can anyone say for certain what went through Clarke's mind at the moment that Black was shaking his head?

Well, come on here, someones feelings were hurt. In USSA these are serious crimes that must be litigated at the highest levels. He should appeal to the next higher court. Preferably the 9th, the court of feelings rulings that are constantly being overturned. Meanwhile, he might consider a new residence, change of name as he has painted a big target on himself.

Let's not forget that deputies in Sheriff Clarkes jail killed a man by denying him water for seven days. A savage, cruel, despicable crime. Maybe the FBI should get to the bottom of that before some inconsequential bullshit like this.

so.. what's the problem?
are FBI snowflakes only investigating tweet crimes, then levelling charges of tweet crimes against LEO's?
did the sheriff and six LEO shake down all the snowflakes off a sneering libtard or was this a facist pig overstepping his "authoritay"?

Great, a photoshop of Trump humping CNN while CNN is licking Clarke's toe and Clarke is in ecstasy.............can't decide whether drink the JD or use it as eye wash.......maybe both
No quit in Sheriff Clark. He knows the law, he knows the boundaries too. No line was crossed.
The Snowflake will soon learn that it's actually a First Amendment right to call someone a Snowflake.
Remember, any Snowflake can file a lawsuit for anything. It doesn't mean any wrong doing occurred.
Assuming the above is accurate anybody who needs 6 deputies to stop a man who asks him a question and shakes his head, isn't much of a man. The question was not covered by the first amendment?
