Three-and-a-half years after Coulter Loeb was arrested while he took photos of a Philadelphia police officer removing a homeless woman from Rittenhouse Square, his civil rights case is in front of a federal jury.
The eight men and women who were seated for the jury Wednesday morning heard opening statements casting the case as one about the importance of free speech to keep power in check, as the American Civil Liberties Union argued, or about a “meddlesome 24-year-old injecting himself into a police situation,” as John Coyle, from the City of Philadelphia Law Department, argued.
Loeb, who had been a photojournalism student at the time of the July 2011 incident, was arrested for disorderly conduct. The charges ended up being dropped and he filed a civil suit in 2013.
