Charges Recommended in Violent Removal at Coeur d’Alene GOP Town Hall

Criminal charges have been recommended against five private security guards and one member of the public following a chaotic scene at a February Republican town hall event in Coeur d’Alene, where a woman was forcibly removed and several attendees were allegedly battered.

According to newly released police reports, the incident began when Teresa Borrenpohl vocally objected to speakers at the Kootenai County Republican Central Committee’s town hall, held at Coeur d’Alene High School. As she loudly commented and booed, a group of men in black jackets pulled her to the ground and dragged her out of the event. Videos of the incident quickly gained national attention.

The men, later identified as employees of Lear Asset Management—a California-based security company—were working as private security for the event. Police say they did not identify themselves at the time and wore unmarked black clothing, in violation of city code requiring proper identification for security personnel. Learn More…
