Police: Arrested activist featured in Project Veritas inauguration video
Washington Times ^ | Janaury 20, 2017 | Andrea Noble

DisruptJ20 protesters dismissed as a joke an undercover Project Veritas video showing activists supposedly planning to shut down Thursday night’s DeploraBall by setting off smoke bombs or the sprinkler system — but D.C. police weren’t buying it.

The 34-year-old man arrested Thursday night for conspiracy to commit assault at the event was among the activists featured in the undercover video released this week, according to court documents made public on Friday.

Scott Ryan Charney was one of the three men caught on camera discussing plans to set off fire alarms and spray Butyric acid — an ingredient commonly used in stink bombs — at the National Press Club, where the party for Donald Trump supporters was held Thursday night. In the Project Veritas video, Mr. Charney is identified as Scott Green, the documents state.

Project Veritas this week publicly released an undercover video taken Dec. 18 that shows three men associated with the D.C. Antifascist Coalition and DisruptJ20 group discussing plans to disrupt the DeploraBall.

After the release of the video, DisruptJ20 organizers said the activists in the undercover video figured out the Project Veritas investigator was a plant and “gave him false information about … what they felt was the most humorous red herring available: a false plot to use stink bombs at an event called the Deploraball with the so-called ‘Alt-Right.’”

Court documents state that police relied on the video turned over to investigators on Tuesday by the unidentified witness as well as emails sent between protest organizers when they filed the criminal charge against Mr. Charney.

The Secret Service is going to have their hands full for the next few years.

At the very least, I'd like to see her publicly brought in for questioning.

I am grateful the police acted. You cannot have unhinged people plotting terrorist actions unpunished. It would have ultimately led to violence and bloodshed.

Glad to hear police making an effort to actually arrest someone. They should have nipped it in the bud months ago.

Butyric acid is present in rancid butter, vomit and old, stinky plastic screwdriver handles made from cellulose acetate butyrate. Also Parmesan cheese.

Butyric acid

The smell of rancid butter is butyric acid.
