A protester was acquitted Wednesday of charges that he assaulted a federal agent during widespread protests against immigration crackdowns in Los Angeles, just hours after one of the faces of President Trump’s enforcement policies took the stand to testify against him.
…
Bovino, who flew in to testify from Chicago, the latest city targeted for an immigration enforcement surge, said he witnessed the alleged assault committed by Ramos-Brito in Paramount on June 7.
…
The jury came back with the acquittal after a little over an hour of deliberations.
Bonus coolness for this is that a public defender was the one to win his acquittal.
Good on the jurors
I’m so glad to see people standing up for what is right and showing some solidarity
What, a fascist piece of shit cop lied?!
I know, fascist piece of shit and cop are redundant.
