GUILTY: First anti-ICE agitator to bring case to trial CONVICTED for criminal offenses committed at Portland ICE facility
ThePostMillennial ^ | 2/11/26 | Katie Daviscourt

An anti-ICE agitator has been found guilty of committing a series of federal criminal offenses at the ICE facility in Portland last summer. David Pearl, 35, of Portland, Oregon, was convicted Tuesday for creating a disturbance at the ICE facility and failing to obey a lawful order. He was found guilty during a four-hour bench trial before US District Court Judge Jolie A. Russo.

Pearl has been sentenced to one year of probation and must complete 10 hours of community service. He is the first of dozens of protesters to take his case to trial over alleged offenses committed at the facility on Macadam Avenue since June 2025.

According to court documents, Pearl was among a group of agitators who formed a human blockade on the driveway of the ICE facility on the evening of June 21, 2025. He denied several lawful commands issued by the Federal Protective Service (FPS) to clear the driveway so federal vehicles could exit. At least six demands were issued over the course of 47 minutes.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

One year probation. Not much of a punishment but at least he was found guilty. That's a little something.

Then one of the Dipstick Court Judgettes will give him permanent free stuff and housing since he has to report to a Pro-Officer once a year.

“””Surprised he was convicted. He must have got unlucky on the judge assignment”””

It is rather shocking that he was convicted in that area.

On the bright side, he won’t be able to get a job with the feds or hold a security clearance. /s

Probably a resume enhancer if he applies to work at a typical NGO.

Insultingly lax sentence. Hope he screws up his probation and earns himself something more significant.

It went to a bench trial and he got 1 year probation????????????????

1 year probation is normally a plea deal. Going to trial is an invitation for the government to tee your a$$ up at a par 5 hole.

Not only does he get probation, but he has to serve 10 hours community service. That means someone has to watch (supervise) the dufus for 10 hours to make sure he doesn’t create even more chaos!
