Meet Seth Tyler, Bellevue PD Public Information Officer, and the guy who wasted taxpayer funds trying shut down my PARODY twitter account as a favor to Chief Mylett -- in an attempt to get me falsely charged with FELONY criminal impersonation during my lawsuit against the Bellevue police. *2018* FINAL OUTCOME:Had to unblock me... because of the Trump twitter case precedent. I wish I was kidding.
3 years and that's what helped...!
They were desperate for anything to charge me with. They didn't even read the statute.
You can read the declarations by following the link in the Litigation section to the Federal lawsuit.
Look below for the screenshot proving the page had a parody disclaimer while it was LOCKED pending an "investigation" owing the complaint filed by Seth Tyler @bvuepd

Guess who will be following your progress in the comments sections,
making sure the whole country knows your name/department, for a different reason?
Me...!
...the guy who remembers you "forgot" to put the comment policy
on the Twitter account for @bvuepd back in 2015....that's who....

I pointed in my September 2015 complaint that I could not be in violation of a comment policy, as the TWITTER @bvuepd had NO comment policy poster -- AS REQUIRED -- by City of Bellevue Social Media policy.
The link to policy @bvuepd was added in January 2016 by Seth Tyler and the discrepancy ignored; Chief only addresses Facebook when he dismissed my complaint in DECEMBER 2015! These guys are so obvious!

Your complaint was made against Officer Seth Tyler.

Subject: ATTN: PIO Seth Tyler - Cease & Desist - Constitutional Violations RE: BPD Social Media Accounts - PROOF ATTACHED
(Facebook Pre-edit | Facebook Post-edit | Twitter Blocked Oct 4th | Twitter Blocked Nov 4th | Facebook Blocked from Commenting Nov 4th)
To Whom is may Concern,
PIO Seth Tyler will now be named in his individual and official capacity for
violations of my 1st amendment right in a civil action naming the City of
Bellevue, et al, for the continued pattern and practice of civil rights
violations, including the 1st and 14th amendments, and violations of Federal
and State law.
This may also be considered a Formal Complaint of Serious Misconduct against
this Officer, whose actions have violated City Policy and my Civil Rights.
This is not a debate, I have attached proof and demand an answer from an
investigator who is from the Internal Office of Professional Standards
(which Seth Tyler is part of...well, I guess there goes that option). Again,
no civilian oversight or ANY oversight of the Bellevue Police Department per
City of Bellevue Policy has caused grievous harm
This conspiracy against my civil rights will be answered for in King County
Superior Court in a jury trial.
Compliance with City of Bellevue Social Media Policy is still required. To
date, my social media accounts have been blocked without due process.
The City of Bellevue will cease and desist violating my constitutional and
civil rights and respond that they have applied all necessary remedy to the
situation.

Dear CD,
I am following up in regards to your City of Bellevue Public Records Request 001076-2015, regarding your question about who is responsible for removing comments and blocking citizens twitter/Facebook on BPD Accounts. As mentioned to you in my previous message, a request for information is not a records request; however, I’ve inquired with the Bellevue Police Department on your behalf and have learned that PIO, Officer Seth Tyler, handles the social media accounts.
I hope this information is helpful to you!
Have a nice day!

Subject: City of Bellevue Public Records Request (PRR 001076-2015) / BPD Social Media Policy
Dear CD,
This e-mail is to confirm that The City of Bellevue has received a Public Records Request from you for information pursuant to the Washington Public Disclosure Act, Ch. 42.56 RCW. We are working on your request and estimate that a response will be available on or about November 16, 2015, if not sooner. Your new Public Disclosure Request file number is 001076-2015, which will help us locate your information if you contact us for an update.
In your request you asked for information regarding who is responsible for removing comments and blocking citizens twitter/Facebook on BPD Accounts. A request for information is not a records request; however, I will see if there is someone that can answer that question for you.
Additionally, you asked for records of the “Bellevue WA Police/City policy on Social Media, specifically editing and removing citizens posts on Facebook/twitter & blocking accounts”. We are interpreting that you would like the Bellevue Police Department social media policy. Please find the link to the requested social media policy which we believes answers your request: http://bellevuewa.gov/pdf/Manager/Website_Policies_and_Procedures.pdf.
I will be working with staff further as to your question. If anything comes up and we need further clarification, I will let you know.
If you have any questions regarding the processing of your request, please let me know.
Thanks and have a great day!

To: City of Bellevue, Bellevue Police Department, Mayor Balducci, Risk Management, City Council.
Subject: 2nd Request: Cease & Desist - Constitutional Violations RE: BPD Social Media Accounts - PROOF ATTACHED
To Whom It May Concern,
This is my second and final request regarding the Bellevue Police Departments violation of my First Amendment right.
The City has been duly notified of this violation and continue to restrain my liberty without due process.
This is an establish pattern and practice of the City of Bellevue and the City of Bellevue Police Department.
I demand the name(s) of the person(s) responsible for administering the Bellevue Police Department Social Media accounts for Facebook and Twitter.
This information is public record and must be released.
My social media accounts are blocked from Commenting on Bellevue Police Department Official Facebook Page located at
http://facebook.com/bvuepd
The Facebook page mentioned above has NO comment policy. My comments were removed despite not violating current City of Bellevue policy on Slander, Libel, and Harassment, which are the ONLY conditions allowing for moderation. No notice of any violations was sent to any user account.
The Bellevue Police Twitter account located at
http://twitter.com/bvuepd
has blocked my twitter account [USER @BPDmisconduct] from Viewing [USER: @bvuepd] emergency notifications, and from sending messages to @bvuepd.
This is a violation of my first amendment right to freedom of speech and right to redress my government in a peaceful manner regarding my grievances.
I demand the City of Bellevue Cease and Desist violating my civil rights and unblock the following accounts:
> On twitter:
> https://twitter.com/BPDmisconduct
> https://twitter.com/chf_mylett
> https://twitter.com/MayorBalducci
>
> On facebook.com this includes enabling the of the ability to post COMMENTS
> https://www.facebook.com/chrisfacebok.5205
Further non-compliance will be construed as willful and malicious acts by the City of Bellevue. The City has until Monday November 09th 2015 to apply appropriate remedy and respond.
Sincerely,
CD

To: City of Bellevue et al
Subject: Cease and Desist - US/WA State Constitutional Violations RE: Bellevue WA Police Department Social Media Accounts - PROOF ATTACHED
To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing to express concern for the lack of social media comment policies on the Bellevue Police facebook and twitter accounts. Neither account is in compliance with the stated City policies found here: http://bellevuewa.gov/pdf/Manager/Website_Policies_and_Procedures.pdf
To wit:
"MODERATION
While visitors to social-media sites hosted by the City of Bellevue can post content directly on some Bellevue social media pages, the content must comply with Bellevue guidelines, being essentially free of libel, profanity and harassing attacks."
"A comment policy stating what kinds of comments are unacceptable will be posted on all social media pages. "
BELLEVUE WA POLICE FACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/bvuepd/ ,
&
TWITTER ACCOUNT https://twitter.com/BvuePD
are in direct violation of the City of Bellevue Social Media policy on moderation.
There is NO comment policy provided on either page nor a reference to public records statutes.
As of November 2nd 2015, and for at least a period between May 2015 and November 2015, there has been no posted policy.
The moderation of comments took place against direct criticisms of the department, not slander nor libel.
Harassment is not something the City of Bellevue Police can "protect" themselves from in an Official capacity when it is a Citizen dissenting in a public forum.
This phrasing can only apply to interactions involving other Citizens and already encompassed by existing anti-harassment law.
Proof of the specific violations is attached in the form of screenshots.
This is a First Amendment violation, and a clearly established pattern and practice of the Bellevue Police Department, in violation of the US and WA State Constitutions.
The City of Bellevue Police Department will Cease and Desist such actions that include, but are not limited to, removing comments or blocking accounts, until such time as a fair and clear Comment Policy is established and posted, providing that policy does not violate superceding laws.
A Comment Policy will also address the Public Records Act in a manner similar to other King County Law Enforcement Agencies, which provide a disclaimer that:
"Comments, list of followers subject to public disclosure (RCW 42.56)."
Please unblock any and all accounts within 48 hours, including specifically but not limited to unblocking my ability to comment on posts.
On twitter:
https://twitter.com/BPDmisconduct
https://twitter.com/chf_mylett
https://twitter.com/MayorBalducci
On facebook.com this includes enabling the of the ability to post COMMENTS on POSTS.
https://www.facebook.com/chrisfacebok.5205
I will be checking to see if my accounts are unblocked, or have received a message referring to a comment policy which was violated, including the exact words used and why they are unacceptable in the absence of any comment policy.
The State may not decide it is being harassed and decide to arbitrarily silence select voices without any due process concerning freedom of speech.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter and full compliance within 48 hours.
