By Carlos Miller
Five weeks after my trial was delayed because prosecutors were unprepared to proceed in front of a news camera, my trial is set to begin again.
This time, the trial is scheduled for 9:45 a.m. on Monday, June 16th, in Courtroom 2-11 in the Justice Building, 1351 N.W. 12th St.
Glenna Milberg from Local 10 said she will be there along with a videographer, so prosecutors were unsuccessful in avoiding the camera, which is ironic considering the actions that lead to my arrest in the first place.

It’s good to hear that you finally have a trial date. Many of us that enjoy photography are watching this with interest. Best wishes!

I was kind of in your corner when this happened.
I say kind of because it soon became evident that your behavior is the root of a lot of your problems.
You seem to seek out confrontations.
Your website is littered with stories of your confrontations.
Can you just once when confronted by some just shut the fuck up and walk away? I don’t think so.
I hope they throw the book at you … you’re an a** hole.

Carlos, Good luck with your trial.
Regardless of whether or not photographers are aggressive or talk back to police or give attitude, the plain and simple fact is that in the vast majority of cases it does not need to escalate to the point of arrest. These are needless cases that clog our courts and waste taxpayer dollars. There is real crime in America that needs addressing.
And to the above poster, your argument would have been so much more effective if you hadn’t degenerated to name-calling. Why is okay to be so crude and classless in a forum like this?

Carlos, as I mentioned I was close by today. I couldn’t get down to your trial because I was in the jury pool room serving jury duty. Needless to say I didn’t get picked even as a panelist for your case (though I am sure they would have disqualified me because I know you and bought an image from you once). In any case I’m another panel and obviously can’t talk about it until it’s over. Anyway, I hope everything went OK and that your not sitting in the slam right now.
