An assistant attorney general in Rhode Island who made national news for repeatedly shouting, “I’m an A.G.” at police officers confronting her in a restaurant will be put on unpaid leave.
While Special Assistant Attorney General Devon Flanagan Hogan initially was put on paid leave, starting Monday she’ll be staying at home – without pay, reports Fox News digital.
It is unclear how long Flanagan will remain on unpaid leave until a final determination is made on her employment.
As WorldNetDaily reported, police responded Aug. 14 night just before 10 p.m. to a trespassing call for customers refusing to leave a business, in this case the upscale Clarke Cooke House restaurant in Newport, Rhode Island.
Despite numerous warnings, Flanagan refused to leave and was taken into custody, but not before she legally challenged the officer – all caught on bodycam footage.
“You’re not gonna arrest us,” said Flanagan, repeating, “I’m an A.G. I’m an A.G.”
“Good for you. I don’t give a sh**,” said the officer. “Let’s go. We’re going.”

Earlier this week, Flanagan’s boss, Rhode Island Democrat Attorney General Peter Neronha, talked to a local radio host about Flanagan’s fate.
As the Gateway Pundit reported, Neronha stated, “Look, she’s put me in a bad position. She’s embarrassed herself, humiliated herself, and treated the Newport Police Department horribly. She is going to take some steps to try to address that in the next day or so. But I just don’t know what I’m going to do yet, Jean, and I have to give it some more thought.
“But the inexcusable behavior – she knows better. The office knows better. I’ve got 110 lawyers. She embarrassed all of them, in a sense. … I want to get some more information, frankly, about what’s going on with her before I make my final decision.”
Fox News reported Wednesday that Neronha sat Flanagan down and had her watch the arrest video with him.
