Schuyler Barbeau was arrested in a setup, participated in by his best friend, Oliver Murphy, on December 6, 2015. Until just a few days ago, what happened to Schuyler was unknown, except that he ended up in jail. The only story that could be told, at that time, was from Allen Aenk, who was present in the car when the minions of government, in complete battle dress, descended on the two of them. What Allen Aenk was able to observe is described in The Arrest of Schuyler Barbeau.
Schuyler has now come forward with his description of the events of that day, including a transcription of the interrogation that was conducted prior to him being finally settled in the King County Jail.
The following account is transcribed from a handwritten report by Schuyler. The interrogation dialogue was copied from a copy provide to Schuyler by the government, as part of Discovery. That transcript was redacted with “XXXXX” in place of a name. However, the name is placed, in context, as the informant working with the FBI is known as a result of our previous investigation, and is used in place of the “XXXXX”. Schuyler’s comments with regard to the interrogation dialogue are
included (in parenthesis).

I stepped out of the car, grabbed the dog’s [Note: a dog that had just been picked up by TeamRescue for training – opf] leash and waited for it to climb out of the backseat into the front seat and then out of the car. Just then, as she jumped out, I heard a whole bunch of shouting to my 11 o’clock position. I looked up and over the top of the hood of the Explorer (which they closed as they came around) and saw the military (it actually turned out just to be the FBI) come pouring out of the building and around the Explorer with their pistols and M4s pointed at my face. Now, there was no difference in dress and appearance between these guys (FBI) and some Delta Force operators from the Army. About 15 to 20 agents total. They had their multi-cam clothing, full kit, plate carrier, body armor, and helmets, along with other gear. “Operators” are carrying, and using all their high-speed weapons. This overwhelming display of “tactic-cool” is a true testament of the militarization of law enforcement.
