Independent journalist and O’Keefe Media Group founder James O’Keefe was served a restraining order while he was filming a live show this week.
Footage shows a sheriff’s deputy walking into O’Keefe’s studio and presenting him a restraining order filed by former Project Veritas board member Matthew Tyrmand, accusing him of domestic violence.
“This is insane. There’s a sheriff in my studio serving me domestic violence documents because the board member said he wanted to murder me,” O’Keefe said.
