Makes me wonder if this was a staged arrest/trial in order to further push the masses into a state of fear and pandemonium as they realize that the fascist policing continues even after it is openly exposed.
Combined with the pandemonium created by the global economic collapse, perhaps it will be enough to turn well-meaning citizens into a raging mob and set the pefect stage for the REAL solution to our own madness: global martial law under the New World Order.
