On the 31st of August, a Montgomery County cop harassed a Black woman-and ONLY at a Black woman-for momentarily standing still in front of Kavanaugh's house during the protest there. He threatened a no-warning arrest if she again stood still. Another (white or white-passing) protester repeated this "offense" and got no reaction from the same cop or any of the others

On the 24th of July, the Washington Post published this report on MPD commander Jason Bagshaw's interactions with protesters. The story contains this unusable Twitter link to a photo of a shield at a 2021 protest referring to Bagshaw. Twitter cravenly hid this Black House News photo behind a login wall and age restriction.

Jason Bagshaw shoots, kills man at the Wharf, 2020 video shows him throwing medic at BLM protest

Submitted by Luke on Sun, 07/17/2022 - 22:53

The cop who shot and killed a man at the Wharf on Saturday night has been identified as no other than Jason Bagshaw, infamous for assaults and general abuse at protests and especially Black Lives Matter marches. MPD claims and Bagshaw's stories about how the shooting took place are highly questionable, especially as Bagshaw was not wearing a functioning body camera when he opened fire.
