The Idaho woman who was forcibly dragged out of a Republican town hall in February is seeking $5 million in damages.

Teresa Borrenpohl was dragged from her seat and onto the floor by private security guards who did not identify themselves after she disrupted a GOP town hall in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, on Feb. 22, according to video of the event and statements from officials.

Borrenpohl filed a notice of tort claim on Monday with the Kootenai County Clerk, asserting that a group of men — which she says includes Kootenai County Sheriff Robert Norris — and a private security company hired for the event violated her constitutional rights.

"Town halls are intended to foster conversation and discourse across the aisle, which is why I am deeply alarmed that private security dragged me out of the public meeting for simply exercising my fundamental right of free speech," Borrenpohl said in a statement.

Norris and the private security firm, LEAR Asset Management, did not immediately return requests for comment.

The court filing comes several days after the Coeur d'Alene City Attorney's Office said in a statement on April 17 that it had filed charges against six men involved in the event.

Paul Trouette, Russell Dunne, Christofer Berge and Jesse Jones were all charged with battery, false imprisonment, security agent uniform violation and security agent duties violation, according to the attorney's office.
