It didn’t specify if it was of the misdemeanor or felony variety but most likely it’s misdemeanor, maximum sentence could be up to a year.

...for the rest of their lives. I'm betting the charges will be dropped. The admin and ICE pigs use the threat of arrest to intimidate good people, but they don't want to go before a judge with all the attendant publicity and judicial resistance to fascism. And I doubt the feds can find juries who will convict peaceful protesters.

…it not going to trial, but they weren’t peaceful protesters.

Like it or not, it is against the law to impede ICE agents who are trying to detain someone.

The assault charges are transparently bogus. No jury will ever convict nurses for trying to prevent violent masked individuals from accessing hospitals. Those nurses are heros.

But impeding the arrests is a crime, and the video clearly show they were doing that.

Physically pulling on and wedging yourself in between a suspect and an officer trying to make a lawful arrest is not peacefully protesting. If it was an unlawful arrest it could help their case but that doesn’t appear so.

That federal prosecutors requested. They’re not dropping the charges. With the video evidence against them it’s also very unlikely the judge they get for trial will dismiss the charges.

It seems to me they enjoy it. Maybe I am wrong about that, I hope so.
