Recorded as it happened and unedited. The jumps in the beginning are me hitting the pause button on the camera. Kurt was sentenced to 180 days in jail for attempting to converse with Edward Burke, the robed man calling himself a judge.

Here is the audio file of him being held in contempt.

Cheshire sheriffs demand we not record as Kurt Hoffman who minutes before was incapacitated by Eli Rivera, Keene PD’s prosecutor, is wheeled out from Keene District Court on a stretcher. They claim some words on paper called “HIPA” prevent the “free press” from recording people receiving medical care, even if the recipient requests cameras present:

Did you know that EMS workers are also now enforcers of some arbitrary words on paper called “HIPA”? (I didn’t – I thought they were good people who do their best to help. Guess that’s not true of all of them.) EMS workers and sheriffs claim that “HIPA” allows them to prevent you from recording video of what they do with patients. Apparently it doesn’t matter what the patient wants. Watch as this thug steals my camera. I then spent over an hour of my time waiting around to get it back. Watch for another angle and longer video coming from ObscuredTruth.com soon here at FreeKeene.com

Keene liberty activist Kurt Hoffman was in Keene district court yesterday due to a charge of “disorderly conduct” for caring about Sam when he was arrested and tortured by police. Kurt was charged in April when he remained in the public court lobby to monitor Sam’s screams from the other room. Additionally, he was being tried for refusing to provide his “papers” to an armed man who pulled him over after rolling through a stop sign in the middle of nowhere (Roxbury, NH).

Here’s the audio of the court proceedings. Picking up where the audio leaves off is this video of his arrest. You can hear an apparently rattled Edward Burke, (the robed man calling himself “the court”) as he attempts to justify placing his fellow man, who has not harmed another human being, into a cage for SIX MONTHS.

Put another way, Edward Burke has decided to spend about $15,000 taxpayer dollars (over $80 per day to jail someone in NH) to show everyone that he’s in charge.
