VICTORVILLE, CALIFORNIA: "Edin Alex Enamorado, who grew a large social media following as an activist for street vendors and other marginalized groups, will be held without bail along with seven other people facing charges of violence during protests, a San Bernardino County judge decided Monday.
The eight people were arrested Thursday morning on search warrants following what authorities called a months-long assault investigation. Enamorado was charged with false imprisonment, kidnapping, assault, unlawful use of tear gas, vandalism and other counts, according to court documents; the other defendants were hit with similar charges.
The others charged are, Wendy Lujan, David Chavez, Stephanie Amesquita, Gullit Eder Acevedo, Edwin Pena, Fernando Lopez, and Vanessa Carrasco. Judge Shannon Faherty did not set bail and ordered them held in police custody, with the next court date set for Dec. 28, according to court records. No bail was set “due to public safety concerns,” said Jacquelyn Rodriguez, spokesperson for the San Bernardino County district attorney’s office, adding that the Sheriff’s Department requested the no-bail hold.
On his Instagram accounts, Enamorado shared videos of harassment of street vendors, racist comments by elected officials and violent police arrests to hundreds of thousands of followers. But San Bernardino County Sheriff Shannon Dicus alleged that the suspects had manipulated videos to make themselves look like crusaders against racist people. In reality, he claimed, they harassed the subjects of their videos to gain attention, views and financial profit.
Last week’s arrests stemmed from an investigation into a Sept. 3 protest at which the defendants allegedly had a PepperBall gun and/or pepper spray and blocked a person from leaving the scene in a vehicle, as well as an alleged assault at a Sept. 24 protest in Victorville, according to the charging documents."
