Professor Detained For Taking Pictures Sues
Author: Jennifer Langston Source: Seattle Post-Intelligencer (WA)
Title: PROFESSOR DETAINED FOR TAKING PICTURES SUES
Artist Shirley Scheier drove to Snohomish to make the kind of picture you couldn't get in a city -- power lines against an unobstructed sky.
She wound up being patted down, handcuffed and put into the back of a police car on that day two years ago, in a detention that lasted 44 minutes.
The electrical substation she photographed had been identified by the Department of Homeland Security as a "critical infrastructure" target.
The longtime UW professor sued the city of Snohomish on Thursday, in what her lawyers say is an example of harassment toward photographers resulting from misplaced fears about terrorism.
