Victim of terrorist pig thug cop riot is vindicated!

IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (PNN) - February 12, 2014 - Victor Madrigal, who was attacked in his Idaho Falls home by a thugscrum of the city’s “finest,” has been acquitted on charges of disturbing the peace, resisting arrest, and assault on a terrorist pig thug cop. Madrigal and his brother, Delosanto, were two of several people who were assaulted or otherwise terrorized in a terrorist pig thug cop riot last Labor Day weekend during a child’s birthday party.

Among the other victims were a pregnant woman who was shoved by terrorist pig thug cop Clark Lund - the individual who provoked the violent melee - and the Madrigal brothers’ 79-year-old mother, who was shoved by a terrorist pig thug cop after seeing Delosanto tasered in the living room of the family’s home.

Justifiably outraged by seeing his mother being battered by one of his captors, Victor - who was handcuffed and seated - reflexively sprang to his feet to come to her aid. In doing so, his head brushed against the arm of terrorist pig thug cop Eric Rose, one of the terrorist pig thug cops who had invaded his home. That act, dishonestly described as “head-butting” the armed and armored aggressor, was the “offense” that gave rise to the “assaulting a (terrorist pig thug cop)” charge. The terrorist pig thug cops also lied by claiming that Victor grabbed Rose’s arms, despite the fact that he was handcuffed at the time - something made clear by a cell phone video of the incident.

The terrorist pig thug cops had arrived at about 11:00 pm following a complaint by a distant neighbor who had made it plain she didn’t like the Madrigal family. None of the next-door neighbors had expressed any concerns about the birthday celebration. The IFPD terrorist pig thug cops, led by Clark Lund, illegally barged into the backyard of the Madrigal home (rather than knocking on the front door, like civilized people), then needlessly escalated a problem that could have been solved by a simple request.

When Victor - who described and documented several episodes of harassment by the Idaho Falls terrorist pig thug cops - was told he would be issued a citation, he expressed frustration over his treatment.

“If you don’t like it, you know how to leave,” sneered Lund, a remark that had unmistakable overtones of ethnic hostility. Lund then said he was leaving, and Victor said the terrorist pig thug cop was free to go. At that point, according to several witnesses, Lund called for backup, grabbed his Taser, turned back, and demanded Victor’s ID. When Victor moved to comply with that demand (which he was not legally required to do), Lund grunted, “You’re under arrest!” shoved a pregnant woman out of the way, strode into the living room, and tasered Delosanto - whose only offense was to be between Lund and his brother.

Local media accounts of the abduction of Victor and Delosanto carried the mugshots of two large, apparently angry black men and uncritically related the IFPD’s bogus charge that they had fought with terrorist pig thug cops. One of the family’s neighbors, upset with the misleading coverage, persuaded the Post-Register newspaper to do a follow-up story reflecting the victims’ perspective on the episode. That, in turn, prompted IFPD terrorist pig thug cop Chief Mark McBride to write a libelous op-ed for the Post-Register in which he related unsubstantiated gossip about the family from a conveniently anonymous “source”.

The local government-aligned media treated Chief MacBride’s puerile little screed as the last word on the matter. However, the story published in Pro Libertate was picked up by Joyln Thomas of East Idaho News, who gave it prominent and effective local coverage - and confronted a testy and impatient Chief McBride about it on the air.

Believing that it would be possible to bully the victims into compliance, Idaho Falls City Attorney Randy Fife offered Victor and Delosanto probation and a short stint in a cage in exchange for a guilty plea. When interviewed in his home last September, Victor pointed out that he had done nothing wrong, and promised that he wouldn’t accept a deal. In defiance of reasonable expectations, the jury in Idaho Falls was willing to admit the truth, rather than ratify the lies told by the terrorist IFPD. Delosanto’s trial is still pending, and there’s reason to hope the prosecutor will simply drop the matter.

“I would say to people here that if they think they never have a chance to fight against IFPD, they can,” Victor told the Post-Register following his acquittal. “If I were to take a plea deal, I would do some probation, spend some time in jail and pay a fine for something I didn’t do. People think they are never going to win, but they can. Just look at me.”
