Prosecution of Kat Abughazaleh
Kat Abughazaleh, a Democratic Illinois congressional candidate, was indicted on federal charges for participating in a nonviolent protest outside a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility near Chicago.
According to feds, Abughazaleh and five other protesters
“impeded and interfered with an officer of the United States”in Broadview, Illinois, where ICE was forced to drive at an extremely slow rate of speed.
- The government claims the protesters conspired to prevent the officer from discharging his duties.
- The prosecution is seen as overreaching and nakedly political.
This case raises concerns that
“all First Amendment-protected activity is at risk”if nonviolent protests are considered criminal conspiracies.
Author's summary: Kat Abughazaleh indicted for nonviolent protest.
