One of the people charged helps run a Salt Lake mutual aid group, which has been buying and delivering groceries to people and has been supporting crowds at protests with water / hand sanitizer.
There’s no doubt in my mind that she was targeted for that association. Fuck the state of Utah and fuck all the liberals who think Salt Lake City is so progressive despite this kind of shit. Every year this city gets more and more gentrified.
Don’t worry, the DA charging them with life in prison is a Democrat, so he’s actually one of the good guys in this scary red state. :) :) :)
