The sheriff's office has threatened criminal action against a TV news crew for bringing a civilian into an evacuation zone.
post, the Siskiyou County Sheriff's Office wrote that the impacted area is being treated as a crime scene, because the fire’s “cause and origin are still under investigation.” While California law allows press access to disaster scenes, active crime scenes are excluded.
The sheriff's office also said that the home had not yet been processed by investigators and search teams when the media crew visited; when officials did access the area, according to the post, they found a deceased person on the property that"media had disturbed." "Since we are actively checking structures and properties for deceased individuals, and conducting various law enforcement investigations, it is imperative media respect the necessary restrictions on private property and stay on public property that has been cleared for media access," the sheriff's office said.
Amy Travis, a spokesperson for the Siskiyou County Sheriff's Office and the Office of Emergency Services, told SFGATE that the incident is still under investigation and the agency isn't naming the media crew involved. Travis said media crews can receive permission to access roadways through burn areas, but they're not allowed to walk into crime scenes or bring civilians into these areas.
