Biography
One of five antifascists arrested fleeing the May 19, 2012 raid on a white nationalist "Economic Summit" at the Ashford House restaurant in Tinley Park, Illinois, in which roughly 18 black-clad attackers struck attendees with hammers and bats. Pleaded guilty in Cook County Circuit Court in January 2013 and received the longest of the four co-defendants' sentences — 6 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections. The Tinley Park Five became a major antifa prisoner-support campaign throughout the mid-2010s.
