The 24-year-old Des Moines Register reporter was pepper-sprayed and detained by police on May 31 while following protests.

DES MOINES, Iowa — Prosecutors will have to produce the body-camera footage capturing Des Moines police officers' interactions with a journalist arrested covering protests following the death of George Floyd.

"The state shall provide mandatory discovery … including but not limited to video, reports, audio recordings, and statements of the defendant," Kemp wrote.These are the stories of 5 who were detained by police Nick Klinefeldt, Sahouri's lawyer, and Brad Kinkade, an assistant Polk County attorney, have argued in court filings about whether the criminal complaints related to the reporter's arrest were specific enough to establish probable cause and whether legal discovery — or the process of seeing one party's evidence against another — was available in a simple misdemeanor case.

Kinkade said Thursday he understands his"ethical and legal" obligations to turn over exculpatory evidence or information about witnesses, if they exist, before trial, but that can't be done in a week. He further ordered that training policies, internal investigative reports and other discretionary discovery Klinefeldt sought would not be subject to disclosure.

This still does NOT SAY she is innocent !

We will be pissed when Hong Kong police start locking up reporters.

Why are so many 'peaceful protestors' financially compensated by activist organizations 'IF' they are captured ON VIDS looting, decimating monuments, burning buildings or other violent acts? Reporters can be complicit. Must prove your case to get off hook! Riots are not Cochella!

How did anything get past that hair!

All the protesters are press.

She was in a riot and got arrested. How controversial.

So Andrea Sahouri was caught up in a MOB and wasn’t where she wanted to be?

If they have no evidence, the judge will hand them their ass.

Reporter = activist

Is she an activist or reporter or both?
