The conservative activist filmmaker, who was arrested in New Orleans in January along with three cohorts in the office of Democratic Senator Mary Landrieu, is expected to enter a plea to a misdemeanor on Wednesday in federal court. He’s accused of entering federal property under false pretenses.
O'Keefe claimed the video project was an investigative attempt to show that the Senator’s office phones worked. At the time of the arrest, the heated debate over the Obama administration health care plan was underway, and O’Keefe said there were claims that Landrieu’s office was ignoring complaints against the proposal.
At first they were accused by prosecutors of "entering federal property under false pretenses for the purpose of committing a felony," and that they were trying to "manipulate," or "maliciously...interfere" with the Senator's phone system.
But by March, the charges filed dealt only with the misdemeanor of "entering federal property under false pretenses". Since the final charges are misdemeanors, the four will be facing a Federal Magistrate.
