Those in or passing through Fairhope on Saturday may have witnessed a bizarre sight: a person dressed in a giant inflatable phallic costume being apprehended by local authorities.

In a video that spread on social media over the weekend, three officers from the Fairhope Police Department arrested and restrained a person attending a No Kings protest dressed in a costume shaped like male anatomy as others in attendance recorded the incident on their phones.

The person arrested was identified as Jeana Renea Gamble, a 61-year-old Fairhope resident, according to Lt. Shane Nolte with the police department. Other outlets have also reported her name as Reana Gamble Fletcher. On the social media app Threads, a user identifying herself as Gamble criticized local officials and their conduct. She previously posted a picture of her wearing the costume and carrying a sign that read “No Dick-tator.”

No Kings protests, also known internationally as No Dictators or No Tyrants protests, is a series of demonstrations, largely in the United States, against what the organizers describe as authoritarian policies of President Donald Trump and corruption in his administration.

Following the incident, Gamble said officers initially told her she was being arrested for “lewd and lascivious behavior.” A statement released by the Fairhope Police Department on Monday said she has been charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest, both misdemeanors.

“A Fairhope woman was arrested for disorderly conduct and resisting arrest during a protest on Greeno Road on Saturday,” Nolte said in the statement. “Officers were dispatched following complaints regarding traffic hazards in the area. Upon arrival, an officer observed an individual in a phallic costume near the Baldwin Square Shopping Center. The officer approached the woman and requested that she remove the costume, which is deemed obscene in a public setting; however, she refused to comply."

Gamble said the costume was confiscated as evidence and that she has a court date scheduled for Nov. 5. She has defended her actions online, saying the protest was a statement about free speech and government control. She has indicated on social media that she intends to seek legal action after finding an attorney.

“Indeed. The Constitution is not a suggestion even in Fairhope,” she replied to one user on social media.

GCM has reached out to Gamble for comment.

Hundreds of thousands of people across the country gathered for this latest round of No Kings protests.

Indivisible Baldwin County, who helped organize Saturday's protest, called Gamble's arrest "indefensible, morally and legally."

“Alabamians have the right to protest peacefully and to expect their government, including law enforcement, to respect those rights,” the group said in a statement. “The No Kings demonstrations in our state and across the country this past weekend were peaceful, exactly as they have been for months now. People should not be subject to violent overreach by police just because they exercise their right to free speech in ways that are controversial or impolite. Speech, but only in ways the opponents of a message approve, is not free speech at all.”
