Tiny Rhode Island had their tiny protest in Providence about overturning Roe v Wade.
Democratic State Senator Jennifer Rourke ended up in the middle of a scuffle and Providence cop Jeann Lugo punched her in the face. Besides being part of the police force Lugo was also a Republican candidate for Rourke’s state senate seat. Lugo has been with police for three years.

You can read his excuses at the link below.

Supposedly he dropped out of the Senate race. As he should.
I hope he is held accountable and is ineligible to run for office in the future.

He could be convicted of a felony and still be eligible in Florida.
