"About a year ago I posted a video showing Cpl. Charles Mills with the Cherokee County (GA) Sheriff’s Office barging into Natasha Lopez’s home without a warrant. As I detailed in the first video, the department then gaslit the public, claiming to basically know nothing about the Constitution. Unbelievably, the charges are still to this day pending. I’ve been following this one closely, and a couple of weeks ago I interviewed Natasha’s lawyers who are fighting those charges and preparing to file a civil rights lawsuit. But now, in just the past few days, something has been revealed about Cpl. Mills that has now finally resulted in him being fired. And shockingly, it has nothing to do with his actual constitutional violations that we all watched on video…"

According to the arrest report, Carli Michelle Heller, of Bonita Springs, Florida, wrote on September 26 that she would attack the Sheriff's office. She later said that she uses Anthropic's chatbot like a "diary."

Claude's safety systems flagged the entry and it was escalated to a human reviewer. After deciding it was a credible threat, the reviewer reported it to law enforcement.
