Newport, RI - New body camera footage shows a Rhode Island prosecutor 'berating' police and attempting to avoid arrest after a drunken night out with a friend.

Rhode Island Special Assistant Attorney General Devon Flanagan Hogan, a Democrat, was arrested Thursday for allegedly trespassing at the Clarke Cooke House, a swanky waterfront restaurant in Newport, Rhode Island.

Hogan can be seen on police body camera footage released Monday attempting to use her position to wriggle out of legal trouble.

'I’m an AG [attorney general]. I’m an AG. What are your probable cause to detain me for?' Hogan said.

'You're going to regret this. You're going to regret it,' Hogan also warned the police officers.

Her friend, identified by police as Veronica Hannan, can also be heard saying 'she's a lawyer' as Hogan demanded officers turn off their body cameras and do not film her.

In a statement issued by the Newport Police, officers noted that Hogan 'was extremely uncooperative, berating officers, repeatedly stating her position as an AG and refusing to follow instructions.'

Staff at the restaurant asked officers to remove the two women from the premises.

Officers also claimed that after the deputy AG's antics, 'both parties still refused to leave, and I grabbed Hogan's left and right hands, securing handcuffs on her.'

'While attempting to secure Hogan in handcuffs, she repeatedly stated, "I'm an AG (Attorney General)." I informed Hogan that she was being arrested because of the fact that she was refused to leave after numerous lawful orders.'

Devon Flanagan Hogan has been employed as a Special Assistant Attorney General in the Rhode Island Attorney General's Office for over 7 years, since April of 2018.
