Tyler Froatz(armed MinuteKlan) trial date set for Feb 27

At a hearing in Courtroom 310 on Dec 19, Tyler Froatz's trial date was rescheduled for Feb 27, with motions to be heard on that same day. This was because of a nearly-booked schedule for the judge.

Froatz's attorney wanted a motions hearing with an "expert witness" in an attempt to claim his arsenal is an antique collection. Since when do things like a molotov cocktail and an AK-47 constitute "antiques?"

Unfortunately, those maps in his car weren't dusty old treasure maps either-they were diagrams of Malcolm X Park showing lines of fire into the crowd at the May 1 immigration rally!

With a booked schedule, the judge decided this bullshit can be heard at trial(if at all), where a motions hearing will immediately precede the trial.

Tyler looked nervous enough just being in the courtroom, but quickly looked even more nervous as members of Resistance and Solidarity filed into the courtroom.

He had NO courtroom support from his right-wing buddies, who seem to have abandoned him as a dangerous loose cannon. Only his lawyer and his father were there with him-and Resistance and Solidarity was in the courtroom to oppose him!
