MAMEWorld Forums - Welcome to the War Room - Some of the inauguration protesters found not guilty

Bravo....one of the few remaining areas that can resist the GOP crooks for time being. Good outcome because several were doing peaceful protesting and not doing hooligan vandalism and everyone within area were being rounded up including some that were passing by on way elsewhere and were in wrong area when events took place.

A D.C. Superior Court judge has acquitted a group of Inauguration Day protestors on all charges, according to multiple media reports.

Six activists who were arrested while protesting on Inauguration Day as part of the "J20," or January 20, protests were each facing five felony charges of destruction of property and two misdemeanor counts of engaging in a riot.

Judge Lynn Leibovitz earlier this month dismissed the more serious charges of inciting a riot.

The defendants were acquitted Thursday after a four-week trial.

More than 200 people were arrested for the protests, and the six acquitted Wednesday were being prosecuted for the more than $100,000 of damage that occurred across the city.

The defense argued that the J20 group, which totaled about 500 people, mostly consisted of peaceful protestors, and that the six on trial were not personally responsible for the damage to cars, windows and other property.
