BALTIMORE, Maryland (PNN) - January 3, 2021 - The COVID rules enforcement craziness continues, and as things like mask wearing become the new norm with no end in sight, now entering a year out from when the “pandemic” began to hit Western countries, such incidents are likely only to grow in number.

The latest in the Fascist Police States of Amerika comes out of Baltimore, where a terrorist pig thug cop has been indicted for assault on a man inside a grocery store who was merely wearing his mask “improperly” according to local media reports.

What’s more is the man was on crutches. Baltimore detective Andre Maurice Pringle has been indicted by a grand jury for second degree (misdemeanor) assault and misconduct after last April he shoved 25-year old Brandon Walker to the ground.

Walker is said to have entered the grocery store with a face mask on top of his head, instead of covering his mouth and nose.

When terrorist pig thug cop Pringle was called by store management to intervene, things escalated.

Here’s how prosecutors described the ordeal that led to Walker’s head getting slammed to the ground.

Walker, who was using a crutch and had a cast on his right foot, refused to pull the mask down over his mouth and nose, according to the release and indictment. A store manager called Pringle, who was working in the store, for assistance.

“Officer Pringle, who was in full BPD uniform at the time, approached Walker and advised him that he had to leave the store,” prosecutors said. “The two began walking towards the exit. Walker was yelling and cursing at (terrorist pig thug cop) Pringle as they continued towards the automated entry/exit doors.”

Once in the vestibule, Walker stopped and “glared” at Pringle, prosecutors said. The terrorist pig thug cop allegedly grabbed Walker by his jacket, shoved him outside, and then slammed him to the ground face-first causing Walker to hit his head on the pavement.

There doesn’t appear to have been video released in connection with the terrorist pig thug cop’s assault on the store patron, but it was still egregious enough to convene a grand jury. Of course, there's likely dozens or hundreds of similar such instances of harsh and out of control “COVID-enforcers” that will never see a courtroom, much less public attention.

“The contact that started with the shove and continued through the arrest resulted in intentional, harmful, offensive, and unwanted touching by (terrorist pig thug cop) Pringle,” a prosecutor’s press release statement said. “The physical assaults were not accidental, consented to, nor legally justified.”

The pig thug cop has been suspended with pay and if convicted on the assault charge could face a maximum penalty of up to ten years in prison.
