FBI Tried to Intimidate Me—So I Turned the Camera on Them

Salt Lake City, Utah

On Tuesday, April 15, 2025, in a bold act of protest and accountability, I returned to the same FBI Salt Lake City field office that just days ago refused to accept my sworn federal declaration regarding government misconduct and threatened me with arrest—and this time, I brought the camera. Several actually.

Why? Because after filing a formal whistleblower complaint to the DOJ’s Office of Inspector General—alleging illegal surveillance, data misuse, and retaliation—I was met with silence, threats, and tracking. The FBI refused to accept my declaration. They threatened to arrest me. They took down my license plate. All of this coming after my private address was leaked to the hands of a police captain 1,700 miles away—information I hadn’t shared with anyone and hadn’t submitted to any business or agency.   In fact I didn’t even have the address memorized as I had just moved in. Then my address along with other false and defamatory statements was disseminated out to 139 law enforcement personnel.

That’s not oversight. That’s complicity. And it’s criminal.

So on Tuesday 4/15/2025, I fought fire with fire.

I set up cameras outside the FBI’s secure exit gate and began filming. I documented every vehicle and every federal agent who left the property. Not for harassment. Not for retaliation. But because this is what accountability looks like when the system protects its own and targets the truth.

They watched me. Now I’m watching them.
