.@steveahlquist reports that four protesters were struck by Woodworth, sending two to the hospital.https://upriseri.com/2019-08-15-wyatt-01/ …
Former state representative Aaron Regunberg reports that when the police arrived on the scene after Woodworth’s attack, they refused to take witness statements.https://twitter.com/aaronregunberg/status/1161857451202924544?s=21 …
The cops clearly aren’t interested in pursuing this as a criminal matter. No arrests were made, nor did they take any witness statements. Woodworth could have killed the nonviolent protesters, but the cops are protecting their own here. This is what fascism looks like.
This isn’t an isolated incident of violence. In 2005, Woodworth had an excessive force complaint filed against him by an inmate. The suit was dismissed for procedural reasons, but the factual allegations don’t appear to have been contested. https://ecf.ctd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show_public_doc?2007cv0148-80 …

The video is anwitness statement.
This story is getting lost in the vortex of news 
So when the authorities in charge refuse to do their job, who steps in? Honest question.
Is it the Pawcatuck police who are refusing to do their jobs?? Maybe we can get a protest going over their in Pawcatuck.
This is what Fascism looks like. The innocent become the persecuted. We need to #resistfascism before it’s too late.
