BREAKING: Tennessee Lookout
A grand jury in Knox County has indicted University of Tennessee protesters who participated in on-campus demonstrations more than a year ago, protesting Israeli actions in Gaza.
Attorney Dillon Zinser said District Attorney Charme Allen’s office showed a significant delay in waiting a year before bringing the cases before a grand jury and could have chosen to dismiss each of the cases.
“We believed and hoped that perhaps they would do the right thing,” Zinser said. “But now that they’ve chosen to indict, that’s a signal to all of us that they are deciding to prosecute this case to the fullest extent of the law.”
