Judge won't drop felony charges against Antifa member, says no proof of 'witch hunt'

Fox News



A California judge declined to drop felony charges against a middle school teacher-turned-Antifa leader and two other activists despite lawyers claiming the charges were part of a “witch hunt” against the educator.

Yvette Felarca, 47, the leader and spokesperson for the anti-fascist group By Any Means Necessary and a middle school teacher in Berkeley, was accused of inciting and participating in a riot in 2016 between white nationalist groups and counter-protesters.

The skirmish broke out at the state Capitol in June 2016 when more than 300 counter-protesters confronted about 30 members of the Traditionalist Worker Party, which has been called a white nationalist group.

The assault charge was filed after a video captured her hitting Nigel Walker, a member of the Traditionalist Worker Party, and calling a man a Nazi before repeatedly punching him in the stomach while shouting “get the f--- off our streets,” the Daily Californian reported.

Felarca, whose name in public records appears as Yvonne Capistrano Felarca, was taken into custody in July 2017 on the charges stemming from the violent brawl. Felarca was also injured in the melee after being stabbed and requiring stitches.

Felarca’s lawyers argued the California Highway Patrol allowed the Traditionalist Worker Party to hold the rally and the Sacramento County District Attorney’s office “covered-up for and colluded with the fascists and that the charges amount to a witch-hunt against Felarca,” a motion asking the judge to dismiss the case stated.

“In the aftermath, the California Highway Patrol and Sacramento District Attorney have done nothing to prosecute the fascists who attempted to murder people in Sacramento,” the motion to dismiss stated.

The motion to dismiss also charged the California Highway Patrol and the attorney’s office were involved in a “cover-up by interrogating and harassing” the counter-protesters while they were being treated in the hospital.

The prosecutor argued that "there was no basis to dismiss these charges” and pointed out the fact that opposition individuals were not charged with crimes did not relieve Felarca from prosecution.

“Even if the extraordinary allegations of bias and collusion posited by the defense in their motion to dismiss were true, and they are not, they would have no bearing on the guilt or innocence of the defendants currently before the court,” the District Attorney’s office reply to the motion stated.

“I think the judge’s decision was politically motivated; I don’t think it was valid,” Shanta Driver, Felarca’s lawyer, said. “I think that this decision is regarded by all as being really outrageous.”

“We completely disagree with the judge’s decision,” Felarca said. “We’re committed to continuing to fight this out.”

A preliminary hearing is slated for May 18.

Sure sounds like it!

And...suck it biach!

Others have said that she has said that she would do this all over again if needed.

I'm watching to see if this gets downgraded at any point to a misdemeanor. If it stays at felony, she would most likely lose her job as a teacher.

Of course, she IS a teacher in BerzerkleyBerkeley.

I strenuously object!!

WOW! You're not kidding. Wonder if she could appeal a guilty verdict on the basis that her defense counsel was 'inadequate'.

Sacramento could solve a lot of financial issues if they make her trial a pay per view event.

Oddly enough, punching anyone is illegal, even if you think they're a Nazi, Fascist, Racist, or any other 'ist'.

She haz teh crayzee eyzzzzz.

Oh. Well, if you strenuously object then I should take some time to reconsider.

I would bet she is a great teacher.

I would want someone like this teaching my kids.

Teaching creds should be pulled. She is on video acting violently. A threat to the students. But once again the school system will ignore a obvious threat.

Yeah, that's another one liable to go stalker crazy on you after the first date...

Y'all have no idea. part of her defense is that she's tiny and would need to fired out of a cannon to actually harm another person. She's nuts. Her lawyer is nuts. Her performance group is nuts. I mean they all fit right in around here but they're a special kind of crazy.

^^^I was going to make a comment - but I can't add anything to this.

Tucker Carlson had her on his show and tried to interview her, but she is seriously nuts. Bottom line: She said if you're talking hate speech (anything she determines as hate speech), then you are being violent and that gives her the right to "defend" herself with violence.

She's definitely a threat to society and should be locked up.

mmmm, I'm thinking she's an animal in every regard.

What is that supposed to mean?
