This isn’t @LydaKrewson’s first time doing this. On 9/17/17, two days after a window was broken at her house, @SLMPD arrested and beat 100+ peaceful and compliant people. Whole thing is on video. 1/ https://twitter.com/lydakrewson/status/1276707075477975041
Video is here. Watch from the 4 min mark.

You can see people beaten and sprayed while their hands are up. Begging to leave. Doing nothing wrong. Police across America copied this during #GeorgeFloyd protests 3/
But here’s the really gross part. The police then issued a fully fabricated press release and they listed the names and addresses of everyone arrested 4/
Here’s what it says:

“Many of the demonstrators were peaceful, however after dark, the agitators outnumbered the peaceful demonstrators and the unruly crowd became a mob. Multiple businesses also sustained property damage and one officer suffered a serious injury.” 5/
Scary right? I mean the arrestees beat an officer!!! Terrible. But if you follow this you will see the ENORMOUS lies. Forget video showing no unruly mob. Let’s talk about the injured cop and the thugs who beat him 6/
So the tl;dr is that the night @slmpd officer beat a fellow officer endig his career and then illegally arrested, beat, and pepper sprayed 100+ people, the city tried to cover it up with a press release that doxxed the real victims and blamed them for beating Off Hall 9/
