Here’s the most upsetting part of this story… 18-months later in July 2018, the government dropped ALL charges against every single of the Antifa rioters who were arrested.

This strategy included persuading defendants, sometimes over the objections of their lawyers, not to accept plea bargains. “Solidarity was what won the case,” said Sam Menefee-Libey, a member of the DC Legal Posse activist collective. “I hope that organizers and people on the left study it.” Read more at: TheGatewayPundit.com and LiberalMob.com.
