    Police and politicians will say anything to get the heat off of themselves. Then when it all dies down they will drop and change charges. I see it often.https://twitter.com/TheRoot/status/944575903832604674 …

        This happened in #Charlottesville, where many anti-racist activists were arrested at KKK rally. Police tear gassed us on false pretext that we'd pepper sprayed law enforcement. (Was rogue, unauthorized order, but officials circled the wagons.) Charges later dismissed or reduced.

        What does this even mean? Do you know the story? How could she defend herself if she didn't know all the disgusting awful thing done to her until after the fact. What a ridiculous statement.

        I live in W. Hartford, Ct. where this happened. The chief of the W.H.P.D. quietly announced his resignation last month, absolving himself from this case. No accountability for this heinous crime.

        I read that the judge wanted a stronger sentence. So the judge is charging her for something else.
