St. Paul.--Today, 15 December 2008, misdemeanor charges against Jason Brian Johnson of "obstructing legal process" were continued for dismissal for six months. No plea was entered.
Mr. Johnson was tasered at least four times by at least two officers on 2 September next to Mears Park on the evening of the the Poverty March on the RNC. The original report on Johnson's felony arrest claimed he was involved in a "conspiracy to use a harmful substance." Apparently the substance remains a mystery.
