Steep bonds for 3 suspects in violent riot on Georgia Tech campus

The three people arrested during a protest on the Georgia Tech campus were all granted bond Wednesday.

*** But attorney Don Samuel said Wilson, a 2013 graduate of The Paideia School, is a lifelong Atlanta resident and Georgia State University student and was exercising his right to protest and isn’t guilty. Wilson did not know Schultz, Samuel said.

Wilson, charged with two felony counts of aggravated assault against a police officer, and three misdemeanor counts of criminal trespass, allegedly hit an officer and knocked him to the ground, causing a concussion, according to his arrest warrants. He also allegedly spray-painted “cop murder” on the street outside the campus police headquarters. Wilson’s bond was set at $107,500.

*** Wilson was previously arrested in November for his alleged role in a fire at a train yard, according to a CSX Railroad Police report. Though that case is still pending, Samuel said Wilson was not involved with the arson, but was only trespassing. But Wilson’s arrest Monday night violates the terms of his prior bond, meaning he’ll have to post additional funds to be released from jail. *** Monden, who registered and is still listed by Georgia Tech as Cassandra Monden, jumped up and down on a police vehicle and attempted to smash the front windshield, according to an arrest warrant. Others at the protest tried to jump an officer to give Monden time to flee, but he was arrested, according to campus police.

Interesting crew of arrestees at Georgia Tech. The one with the most serious charges is a recent grad of Jon Ossoff's rich-kid private school. The only GA Tech student of the 3 is apparently a transgender black kid.

Bond? For an arsonist??

[taxcontrol]

Any of these out of state-ers? Isnt it a federal felony to cross state lines to riot.

[Enchante]

He’s out on bond for one dangerous crime and gets charged with more (new) dangerous crimes..... why should he get bond at all???? He is a clear and present danger to the community.

White privilege?

[stormhill]

Yeah, this Wilson is obviously a recidivist serial a-hole who needs to be put away for his own safety.

[McGavin999]

Bond should be denied for all three of them

[stormhill]

Yes, of course. All except Monden; “he” is a transgender and, as everyone knows, transgender people are sweet and gentle.

[CH3CN]

Nah, he’s a Rambling Wreck.

Wilson, charged with two felony counts of aggravated assault against a police officer, and three misdemeanor counts of criminal trespass...

Note to attorney Don Samuel: Mr. Wilson wasn't charged because he was exercising his right to protest, he was charged with the crimes underlined above.
