If I were a witness to a crime and filmed it and the arrest or just the arrest it is not reasonable to let the police have the evidence because you are a witness…If the police took your camera or stopped you from recording the event then they would be guilty of witness tampering. A witness presents evidence in court that is their property. Its an interesting problem and one that needs to be settled in court. I think the police should be forbidden from witness tampering or intimation of a witness.

National Press Photographers Association General Counsel Mickey H. Osterreicher has since written to the Rochester PD, and tells them that “While it may be understandable that your officers had a heightened sense of awareness, that is still no excuse for them to not recognize a citizen’s right to take photographs/video of an event occurring on a public street.”

I would guess they charged her with obstructing their arrest, or possibly failing to leave an area of unrest after being told to leave.
That will end up getting thrown out. She was on her own property filming. A citizen has a right to take photographs/video of an event occurring on a public street.
