Some Trump protesters to face rioting charges
« on: January 24, 2017, 12:53:16 AM »
Federal prosecutors say most of the approximately 230 protesters arrested on Inauguration Day will be charged with felony rioting.

230 people have been arrested and six police officers injured in the D.C. protests  against President Trump.

Windows have been smashed at Starbucks, McDonald's and Bank of America buildings.
Broadcaster Larry King said the windows of his SUV were smashed by protesters while he was in studios

Some of those arrested made their first appearances Saturday in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia, a spokesman for office told NBC Washington.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office says the offense is punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $25,000. The people who were arrested are appearing in court on Saturday in Washington.

A better link and it looks like a $250,000 fine and not $25,000!
