The unnamed reporter for the Butt Crack News Network (BCNN) went live on both his own channel and on the channel owned by YouTuber Beau “Flex Your Freedoms” Bish on Sunday in an effort to turn out fans to a Monday protest in Waterloo, Iowa.
Bish is currently serving a 10-day sentence after being found guilty of interfering with official acts. Previous attempts at an appeal to the Iowa State Supreme Court had been unsuccessful, resulting in Bish reporting to jail last week.
BCNN promised a large protest, claiming the goal of 35 people, was planned outside of the Black Hawk County jail on Monday in order to support Bish, who has been incarcerated without his prescribed medications since Monday of last week.
The protest is scheduled to move from the jail to the Waterloo City Council meeting later Monday night, where BCNN has asked all of the fans who attend the protest to sign up to speak during the public feedback portion of the meeting.
BCNN also asked his fans to flood the city council’s e-mail address with comments in support of Bish and to demand that the distribution of the prescription medicines he brought with him when he entered the Black Hawk County jail last week.
Jail policy withholds medication that prisoners bring with them pending verification of the drugs and the prescription status. As explained to BCNN on a previous live stream by jail officials, the jail was working with the Veteran’s Administration to verify and fill Bish’s prescriptions.
Bish is due to be released on April 4, 2024, despite the protests on his behalf.
