Video Shows Kansas Police Raid The Home Of 98 Year Old Newspaper Publisher After Her Paper Went After The Chief,She Died The Next Day

Shocking new surveillance footage shows the 98-year-old co-owner of a Kansas newspaper berating police during a raid on her home that left her so traumatized, she died the next day.

Joan Meyer's home was raided on August 11 as the Marion County Police Department was executing a search warrant in an identity theft investigation - one that was later withdrawn by the county attorney.

'Don't you touch any of that stuff,' the Marion County Record co-owner told cops in the newly released footage as she moved around her home with a walker. 'This is my house. You assh**e!'

Joan's son Eric Meyer has asserted that his mother, a lifelong journalist, died the day after the raid from being 'traumatized' by the incident.

At least six officers are seen searching Joan's home and sorting her belongings as she repeatedly tells them to leave.

'I don't want you in my house,' she says.

It has been reported the entire police investigation was connected to a story in which the newspaper was looking into claims police chief Gideon Cody retired from his previous job to avoid punishment over alleged sexual misconduct charges.

Police also raided the newspaper's office and the home of one of its reporters. They took vital publishing equipment, including computers and phones.
