The Justice Department accused Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-N.J.) of having “slammed her forearms” into immigration officers during a scuffle outside a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention center as officers attempted to arrest Newark’s mayor.
The criminal complaint, made public Tuesday, provides the most detailed picture yet of why federal prosecutors believe McIver’s actions amount to the federal crime of assaulting federal law enforcement, a felony charge.
The document repeatedly accuses McIver of attacking agents with her forearms. The filing includes a number of still images showing the New Jersey lawmaker’s arms pushed against the back of a masked officer.
So given the photo, do you think that either of those two kevlared and MASKED men would even notice if that little lady bumped into them with her forearms? And of course there is last week's accusation that she body slammed someone...like I would find that hard to believe that she could body slam a trained law enforcement officer who would be towering over her.
So clearly, this is a political hit job and not an actual case for prosecution.
