Democrat lawmaker proposes changing the definition of ‘riot’ after her colleague gets arrested for rioting

PML:

In response to Kentucky state Rep. Attica Scott’s arrest for felony rioting in Louisville, her colleague in the legislature, Democratic Rep. Lisa Willner, has proposed changing the legal definition of what a riot is.

Willner’s plan is to change the current definition, which says that a riot involves more than five people in a public disturbance “which by tumultuous and violent conduct creates grave danger or damage or injury to property or persons or substantially obstructs law enforcement or other government function.”

As reported by WRDB, Interim LMPD Chief Robert Shroeder said Friday during a press conference that “Under Kentucky’s riot statue, anyone who is part of a group causing damage or riotous behavior, is subject to the charge of rioting. It does not require an individual to actually have participated in the destructive act.” more
