Update: Sheriff's office issues statement.

A Washington County sheriff's deputy arrested a 14-year-old girl during a weekend argument with her mother after giving her some unusual advice: Her parents would be justified to spank her, that she's lucky she doesn't live in the Middle East and that women should stay home with their children.

The Washington County Sheriff's Office wouldn't say Monday whether investigators are reviewing the comments made by Deputy Brian Klostreich.

A neighbor recorded Klostreich's encounter with the girl at a Tigard apartment complex after hearing the deputy's booming voice and taking out his phone in case the interaction went awry.

The deputy had been called to the apartment Saturday afternoon to investigate a fight between the girl and her mother.

While Klostreich spoke with the family, he remarked, "If my kid did that to me, I'd pretty much beat the hell out of him."

Klostreich went on to say that women should stay home and be mothers and that if the girl lived in the Middle East, she'd have to wear "a rag" over her face and would be considered "scum" and "property."

The encounter isn't the first time a Washington County sheriff's deputy has been caught on camera making questionable comments.

Deputy Chris Gilderson was suspended after he was caught on video bragging about killing Somalis while he was in the military - to a suspect of Somali descent who he was taking to jail in 2013.

On Saturday, the interaction between the girl and Klostreich started not long after 1:30 p.m., said Darren Hall, the neighbor who recorded it. Hall told The Oregonian/OregonLive that he started recording after he heard the deputy curse and yell at the girl.

"It seemed to me that he was really being inflammatory instead of coming in and being a calming presence," Hall said.

Hall said he believed the deputy's comments encouraged parents to hit their children. Others, he said, were culturally insensitive.

"I really couldn't believe what I heard," he said.

Sgt. Bob Ray, a sheriff's office spokesman, said the sheriff's office believes that Hall's recording was illegal because, for part of it, the deputy was talking to the family inside their apartment. The deputy's voice is audible from outside the unit and the door is left open.

Ray said the girl's mother wants to make a criminal complaint about the video. Ray would not say how the mother learned about the footage.

Hall's video starts with the girl apparently complaining that her mother had hit her. According to the recording, the interaction played out like this:

"They don't beat you, do they?" the deputy responded. "Beat ... Listen to me! Beat and slap in the face is completely different. I'm talking about welts and bruises and punching and, you know, starving and chaining you to the ground. That's beat. This is discipline."

Sheriff's office response

The following statement was provided by Washington County Sheriff's Sgt. Bob Ray:

It is my understanding that there was a video recording of a domestic violence incident involving a minor this weekend, and that there is probable cause to believe the video was made in violation of ORS 165.540. It is also my understanding that the domestic violence victim wishes to press charges against the suspect who illegally captured the video and audio of a private conversation within the victim's home and then posted it to a public forum.

As you are aware, ORS 165.540(1)(c) makes it a crime to obtain an in-person conversation, and 165.540(1)(e) makes it a separate crime to "Use or attempt to use, or divulge to others, any conversation, telecommunication or radio communication obtained by any means prohibited by this section." In light of that, any further disclosure of the illegally captured video will likely result in additional criminal charges for violation of this statute, and could also result in civil liability for invasion of privacy.

The Oregonian has made a request for a copy of the police reports involving the underlying domestic violence charge. In light of the fact that there are at least two criminal investigations arising from this incident (one for domestic violence and one for the subsequent unauthorized recording of an in-person conversation without notification and an additional count for unauthorized disclosure of the conversation) we will not be able to provide any information pursuant to a public records request pursuant to ORS 192.501(3) as it is investigatory information compiled for criminal law purposes.

Klostreich told the girl that he understood that she's going through a lot. The video includes discussion of her dad being gone and that being 14 is hard.

The girl isn't always audible throughout the video, so her replies to Klostreich aren't always clear. At one point, though, she alleged that her family doesn't show her affection.

"I deal with people like you all the time," the deputy told her. "You're no different than the handful of people I deal with on a day-to-day basis."

Klostreich, at times, lowered his voice as he spoke to her.

"I bet down inside you're a dang good girl," he told her. "You're angry and pissed off. I get it. I understand that.

"You're a very beautiful girl. I bet you're pretty smart in school if you really want to be."

Klostreich told the girl that her problems stem from her age, the kids she hangs out with and a lack of respect for authority, including for her mother. Her home belongs to her mother, he explained, and her mother calls the shots.

"I'm not getting through to you, am I?" Klostreich asked her. "Do you need to go to juvenile? Do you need to go to jail and be arrested?"

The deputy explained to the girl that she needs to learn how to cope and deal with anger without being violent. He explained that the girl's parents have the right to physically discipline her. The girl alleged that her mother hit her with hangers before, but her mother denied it.

"What's that got to do with right now," Klostreich responded. "Is she hitting you with hangers now?"

No, the girl replied.

The girl's mother showed the deputy a video of their fight. None of the footage is visible, but it's audible in Hall's recording. The girl curses and yells at her mother to give back her makeup.

"All about makeup," Klostreich said. "Unbelievable."

The video played on.

"Heh," the deputy laughed at one point. "Do you want her arrested?" he asked the mother.

The mother agreed. They kept watching the video. He told the girl her mother was patient and the way the girl treated her mother was horrible.

"Ohhh," Klostreich said at one point. "I would have dragged her into the room."

About six minutes into Hall's recording, the deputy said he was going to arrest the girl on a harassment accusation. About two minutes later, he read the girl her Miranda rights.

"She's a loose cannon right now," Klostreich said. "She needs help."

Klostreich told the girl that her mother's boyfriend - if he has permission from her mother - also has the right to discipline her, including to "spank" her like a "little 5-year-old." He told the girl she needed to learn how to talk to her mom. He indicated that her mother and her mother's boyfriend care about her and are working to support the family.

"He's out there working his butt off to pay for the rent," Klostreich said. "That's adulthood. That's something that, you know, traditionally a man's supposed to do. If we could afford it in this society, the man should be working, and the mom should be home."

Klostreich soon brought up his views on the conditions of Muslim women and compared the girl's situation to them.

"You could be in the Middle East somewhere," Klostreich told the girl. "Having to wear a rag over your face. And you're scum. You don't have the right to do anything. You don't have a phone. You don't have the right to talk to anybody. You're property.

"And you think you have it bad?" the deputy asked her. "These Muslim women out there, they're property, that's all they are. And if they misbehave like this to their parents, they beat 'em. Like literally, the whole family beats 'em.

"And sometimes, they kill 'em! For disrespecting their parents. They kill 'em. And if you don't believe me, then do your own research."

Klostreich spoke to the the family for awhile longer. The mother told him about another fight her daughter had gotten into in the past. The deputy asked how long the mother's boyfriend had lived in the United States and then commented on the way they could fight when they were young, but times have since changed.

"OK," the deputy eventually said. "Enough of jibber jabbing."

He told the mother he'd take care of her daughter. "I'm not going to treat her inhumanely," he said.

The recording shows Klostreich leaving the apartment with the girl, who's dressed in a pink T-shirt, her hands cuffed behind her back. They entered the breezeway and head toward the stairs and the parking lot.

Hall, who had been recording for nearly 25 minutes, finally caught the deputy's eye. Klostreich asked what he was doing.

"Making a video," Hall replied.

"A little weird," the deputy responded. "But go for it."
