Journalism organizations and civil rights groups are joining forces to overturn a West Palm Beach appeals court decision that they claim could block the press and the public from videotaping police. Raising the specter of cellphone footage that captured George Floyd’s murder by Minneapolis police, ACLU attorneys on Friday urged the 4th District Court of Appeal to reconsider its decision to uphold the arrest of a Boynton Beach woman who turned her video camera on cops. “It’s a profoundly disturbing decision and contrary to a long line of federal court rulings,” said American Civil Rights Union attorney Jim Green. He is representing various groups, including the National Press Photographers Association, the Society of Professional Journalists and the Florida Justice Institute.
