Local resident alleges theft of property and constitutional violations during public comment
Summary
Carolyn Campbell addressed the Wabasha County Board during public comment alleging county actors misled her and violated her constitutional rights, and said she intends to pursue federal litigation.
Carolyn Campbell spoke during the public comment period, alleging that the county and specific officials were responsible for theft of her property and that she had been misled by county actors.
"My constitutional rights were violated," Campbell said, adding that "they belong to me, not to you," and referencing the U.S. Constitution’s Fourteenth Amendment and state constitutional protections. She told the board she had been misled and that she expects to pursue discovery in federal court on the matter, saying she would "see you in federal court along with my law professor." She asked the board and staff to provide any evidence they may have.
The remarks were made during the public forum portion of the meeting; no county action or response is recorded in the transcript during the session following her comments. Campbell said she spoke at the prior meeting as well and reiterated her intent to pursue legal remedies.
