American Fork police arrested YouTuber Benjamin Schneider, known online as Reckless Ben, on March 11, 2026 amid his viral investigation into a missing $200,000 Lego Star Wars collection. Bodycam footage later released showed an officer saying police were ready and willing to arrest Schneider for digital stalking because he was using electronic means to communicate and coordinate with his audience. Schneider says the footage was leaked by a hacker; the department says it released the footage voluntarily in late May 2026 to address misinformation. Schneider faces misdemeanor stalking and harassment charges and has publicly disputed the department’s account point by point. Civil rights attorney John Bryan has covered the case extensively, arguing the charges were manufactured to silence Schneider’s reporting.
