Boo! We hope this guy gets convicted too!
British bailiff Keith Beams has been charged for assaulting two people and damaging a photographers camera while he was supposed to be “peacefully” evicting Occupy London protestors on January 30th.
It’s such a shame when the authorities respond with violence against citizens practicing their right to hold public demonstrations.
The abusive bailiff is set to appear before magistrates on April 13th. Hopefully this will remind others tasked with dispersing protestors that violence is NEVER the answer.
If only American courts would hold some officials responsible for similar incidents…
