Lee Yoshimatsu knew the political sign in his yard would get attention – that was the goal.
[Editor’s note: Due to the controversial content of his sign, Lee asked ABC15 to use a last name he uses for business for this report.]It’s changed multiple times since he put it up in late summer in 2022. Currently, three have graphic messages and/or images about former President Donald Trump. The fourth is a sign supporting Democratic Congressman Ruben Gallego.
ABC15 obtained police reports showing that Wickenburg police supervisors have visited Yoshimatsu’s home twice about the sign. The officers told him the sign was illegal and was a felony to have the images up.In between, Yoshimatsu said a pair of men riding in a Wickenburg police SUV yelled at him, calling the sign “bullshit.” Yoshimatsu said he complained to the department and was told the men in the car were civilian volunteers.“I think that’s exactly what they were trying to do,” he said.
Following the visit, police also contacted the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office, which told him the sign was protected speech, records show.
