A TOP prosecutor has been caught on police bodycam spewing threats as she was cuffed outside a restaurant for trespassing.
Rhode Island assistant attorney general Devon Hogan Flanagan reminded cops of her title over a dozen times before she was arrested.
Hogan Flanagan and her friend Veronica Hannan were confronted by officers outside the Clark Cook House in Newport on Thursday night.
Restaurant staff had called for help removing an “unwanted party,” according to NBC affiliate WJAR, which obtained the bodycam footage.
In the video, Hogan Flanagan repeatedly said she was “an AG” and instructed the officer on his bodycam “protocol.”
“I want you to turn your bodycam off. Protocol is that you turn it off. It’s a citizen request that you turn it off,” she said.
The cop attempted several times to get the women to leave the restaurant with him, but they continued bickering.
“They want you to leave. Let’s just leave,” the officer said.
After the women wouldn’t listen, the cop turned to the host and asked, “Do you just want them out? Do you want them trespassed?”
The host said, “Anything we can do. Trespass, yes.”
The conversation continued to escalate, with the officer telling the women that he didn’t want to have to arrest them.
“We’re not trespassing,” responded Hogan Flanagan.
“You haven’t notified us that we’re trespassing.”
The attorney general once again told the cop to turn off his body camera before Hannan said, “She’s a f*****g lawyer, so she knows.”
The officer finally handcuffed Hogan Flanagan as she yelled “I’m an AG” several times while being led to the cop car.
