Jason Johnson: We must say local authorities are telling a different story. They’re alleging that the Mallery are harassing and stalking their neighbors. How are the police claiming that this couple is somehow waging a harassment campaign against their neighbors?
Ezekiel Walker: That’s the crazy part because both of them are allegedly slinging somewhat of the same allegations towards each other about stalking and about harassment and about, you know, maybe you shouldn’t be on my property this time or you are on my property, you know. They’ve taken cameras on each other’s property to film each other. So there’s been a lot of ugliness to this whole thing for the last two years because 470 calls have been made to the same sheriff’s department. Obviously, a lot’s been done in two years. And on February 7th, Courtney was arrested on felony stalking, petty theft and tampering with a utility meter. Now, I say that to say, you know, he was arrested for that. And sure, there’s going to be a case filed later for that actual dispute.
Ezekiel Walker: But a large part of what’s happening for him and for Nicole is that they’re not being responded to in the same amount of urgency. And we know this within you don’t have to be in a rural area. You can be in the inner city or anywhere to know. Police typically respond slower to black calls, unfortunately. But for them, they’re trying to get, you know, necessarily a restraining order. They had a temporary protection order in December 2021 alleging that Theresa Clark was just, you know, the light. The white neighbor was chasing her in a vehicle, stalking and pointing guns. But nothing was done to her. You know, she wasn’t brought in for questioning. So a lot of what we’re seeing is that kind of like one sidedness to the police and what they’re doing to the Mallery in this particular case.
