Haitian group in Springfield, Ohio, files citizen criminal charges against Trump and Vance

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The leader of a nonprofit representing the Haitian community invoked a private-citizen right to file charges Tuesday against former President Donald Trump and his running mate, JD Vance, over the chaos and threats experienced by Springfield, Ohio, since Trump first spread false claims about legal immigrants there during a presidential debate.

The Haitian Bridge Alliance made the move after inaction by the local prosecutor, said their attorney, Subodh Chandra of the Cleveland-based Chandra Law Firm.

Charges brought by private citizens are rare, but not unheard of, in Ohio. Examples might be a grocery store charging a customer for a bounced check. State law requires a hearing to take place before the affidavit can move forward. As of Tuesday afternoon, none had been scheduled.

Trump and Vance, a U.S. senator from Ohio, are charged with disrupting public services, making false alarms, telecommunications harassment, aggravated menacing and complicity. The filing asks the Clark County Municipal Court to affirm that there is probable cause and issue arrest warrants against Trump and Vance.

Who is paying the lawyer for bogus charges? I doubt this lawyer is doing this pro bono.

Either they learn quickly or there are Soros funded "advocacy groups" sowing more chaos.

They’re eating the dogs.

Utter insanity.
Trump and Vance are "charged with disrupting public services, making false alarms, telecommunications harassment, aggravated menacing and complicity"

They want the Clark County Municipal Court to issue arrest warrants for Trump and Vance.

Biden & Harris with the complicity of Mayorkis imported millions of illegals, illegally granted many of them "Temporary Protected Status," shipped tens of thousands of them to communities that never asked for them nor voted on receiving them, and they want to arrest TRUMP and VANCE for an "eating the cats and dogs" comment???

From the article: The 15,000 to 20,000 Haitian immigrants who have arrived in Springfield over the past several years...

Also from the article: The leader of a nonprofit representing the Haitian community invoked a private-citizen right to file charges Tuesday against former President Donald Trump and his running mate...

My take: Best I can tell it's not saying that the immigrants themselves are filing charges (which only citizens can do, per the article). But the leader of the non-profit is filing charges. The article doesn't say who the leader is, though.

They’re killing and eating pets: theft and cruelty to animals. State crimes.

They’re killing wild ducks and geese: taking migratory waterfowl out of season. Federal crimes.

Can Trump file similar charges against the Democrat party and their lickspittles in the press for making bogus claims that he is Hitler? What a crock of crap.

I hope right minded people in certain parts of Ohio sue Chandra under the RICO act. This coordinated effort to enable the risk placed on law abiding citizens, limit their free speech and reporting of facts, and to undermine public safety shouldn’t be tolerated.

Who else is working with Chandra? Who<is influencing? Who is funding?

Haitian group in Springfield, Ohio, files citizen criminal charges against Trump and Vance

This is hilarious!   I liked to die when I read this, said the country bumpkin.   What a hoot.

What was the crime supposed to be?   Insulting their Gourmet palette?
