From Washington Examiner: Out of 575 arrests made in connection with the anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement riots in Los Angeles that started earlier this month, to date, the district attorney’s office has only confirmed that a dozen or so suspects have been criminally charged.
Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman, an independent, announced last week that more than a dozen defendants were charged with crimes tied to the anti-ICE uprisings, following numerous nights of rioting, rampant looting, vandalism, and violence against immigration enforcement agents.
However, as of Monday, Hochman’s office indicated to the Washington Examiner that more charges may come.
“Cases are being presented to our office for filing consideration and prosecutors are determining whether cases should be filed, declined or referred to other agencies in accordance with the law,” a public information specialist previously told the Washington Examiner.
“At this time, we are gathering information about how many protest-related cases have been filed with our office and will provide details when we have them,” the spokesperson said.
