A former Washington state lawmaker’s stepson has been charged with setting fires during Seattle riots - and is also suspected of hitting a cop in the head with a baseball bat, according to reports.
Democrat Laura Ruderman - a state representative from 1999 until 2005 - appeared in court Monday to vouch for 19-year-old stepson Jacob Greenburg after he was charged with arson for setting dumpster fires during recent riots in the Emerald City, KOMO News said.
“I’ve served the state in the legislature. We will make sure he follows all the provision,” Ruderman told the court, calling her stepson “basically a good kid” and a “straight ‘A’ student.”
Court records show that as well as the dumpster fires, the teen is a “strong suspect for another arson attack” where Molotov cocktails were thrown at cops guarding their police precinct, KOMO News said.
Cops searching his home found a baseball bat and an outfit matching one worn by a man caught on video attacking an officer over the head during recent Breonna Taylor protests, KTTH 770 said.

Karen must be so proud of her little step monster.
What a surprise......
BLM: white bored rich kids.
Let justice be served. Hit him in the head with a bat, throw molotov cocktails at him and burn the democrat legislative representatives house down.
Then set bail.
Karen must be so proud of her little step monster.

should be
Washington state ex-lawmaker’s
English seems to be a foreign language to editors.
>“basically a good kid”
Another mostly peaceful protester...
She must be so proud
Great post. Thanks, Libloather.
He just likes to set fires every now and then.
I wouldn’t waste jail on the kid. I’d tell him to report over to some county official each day for a month, and fill 1k sandbags a day. Thirty days of that, will get the demons out of his head and resolve his problems.

This is all so crazy. What do kids like this (innocent until proven guilty, but someone did it), hope to achieve?
Who cares if he has been charged. Some leftist judge or jury will let him go or a leftist DA will drop the charges.
Criminal, leftist government in Seattle protect their paramilitary soldiers. It does not prosecute them.

Who's going to make sure the County official follows through? This is Seattle we're talking about. He'll probably get a slap on the wrist as it is. The little bastard hit a cop in the head with a baseball bat. The cop should at least be able to do it back. These kids are the way they are because they have no discipline, and they have no appreciation for what they have.He needs some sense knocked into his head.
Hitting a cop with anything is assault and battery with a weapon and various degrees of aggravated assault, with intent to maim, intent to kill.
5-20 for this prick plus another 5 for arson.
Fu*k his mother and her political career. He’s a little terrorist who needs serious jail time and a felony record for life.
Put her in jail next to the kid, since she is the one who filled his head with lies.
Well, the State has gone downhill. Could it be that it doesn’t deserve the name any longer?
No charges, the ex-lawmaker is a Democrat. Typical liberal.
