Lawyer John H. Bryan’s YouTube Channel
John H. Bryan / Civil Rights Attorney, Constitutional Activist, YouTuber
John H. Bryan has been practicing law in West Virginia since 2006, focused on federal civil rights litigation, representing plaintiffs in section 1983 actions against government defendants in cases involving allegations of constitutional violations of individual rights – primarily involving police interactions.
His YouTube channel, “The Civil Rights Lawyer,” currently approaching 900,000 subscribers, regularly publishes video content informing and educating the public about civil rights topics. Focusing on individual police interactions nationwide, combining elements of storytelling, investigative journalism and legal analysis, his videos have amassed over 300,000,000 views since 2020.
Beyond just information and education, his videos have helped to bring meaningful change and government accountability in communities across the country, resulting in increased transparency, public awareness and civil rights protections for citizens. John was a 2024 recipient of The Governor’s Civil Rights Day Award, “for extraordinary service to the citizens of West Virginia in the battle for absolute equality and civil rights for all.”
John received an undergraduate degree in Political Science at the University of Central Florida, where he was the defense captain of the nationally ranked UCF Trial Team, winner of the prestigious Yale Invitational Mock Trial Tournament. He attended law school at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he was a member of the national moot court team and was awarded the Gressman and Pollitt Award for outstanding oral advocacy.
While in law school, spent a year defending juveniles in Durham, North Carolina with UNC’s criminal law clinic. John also worked as an assistant prosecutor for misdemeanor crimes in Raleigh, North Carolina, trying over thirty criminal cases to verdict. In what would direct the course of his career, John was selected for, and completed, a prestigious civil rights law internship at the U.S. Department of Justice in the Civil Rights Division, Special Litigation Section, in Washington D.C., where he helped perform field investigations of police officers and agencies on location throughout the nation.
During his legal career in West Virginia, he obtained one of the only-known cases of a federal jury verdict being overturned in favor of a civil rights plaintiff, based on video evidence of police misconduct. Together with the Institute for Justice, he litigated one of the few Section 1983 cases to successfully deprive a judge of judicial immunity, creating new case law on an important civil rights issue. He forced the recognition of the knock and announce rule in West Virginia law enforcement training materials, after litigating the first no-knock raid Section 1983 lawsuit in West Virginia.
John lives in the small town of Union, West Virginia, with Julie, his wife of 20 years, and their two children. John is also an amateur historian, antique gun collector and member of the prestigious Kentucky Rifle Association. Some of his original American firearms have been displayed in museums, such as the Fort Pitt Museum at the Heinz History Center in Pittsburgh, the Rockford Museum in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, as well as the National Museum of the United States Army, in Fort Belvoir, Virginia. He is also currently in the process of restoring and preserving the only known surviving Revolutionary War frontier log fort still standing in its original location.

I would like to know the outcome of the videos you have posted????
Which videos exactly are you referring to? Any sharing on the internet has an effect because other victims find out they are not alone.
It also exposes to people how big the problem really is. In fact, it has become obvious to many that the so-called “Legal system” is the most “Illegal system” which is on par to what is going on in the Middle East where some people are above the law while the law is used as a weapon against the innocent. The innocent are painted via baseless, blatant lies as criminals, crazy, abusers etc. While the real criminals play the victim card. The internet is controlled by the most evil, ruthless, shameless, spineless criminals who don’t want the truth being known, thus they censor the truth. The corruption and deep state starts at the top and October 7th 2023 as an example has exposed the deep state and criminals at the top. They also control the court, judges and lawyers. The problem is a weak, dishonest, two-faced U.S. Congress who accept bribes or are extorted for more evil immoral acts. One tip is to stop using the mainstream bought and controlled media. Look for less censored search engines, such as yandex.com, for example. The positive is the world is waking up, we’ve been lied to by the victors of World War 2, the same tactics of demonizing the true victims and the criminals playing the victimhood card is being used. Everything history books, Hollywood and media tells us about WW2 are lies twisted to demonize the real victims. This is all being repeated today with Gaza and even the governments we know today.
