Man accused of assaulting conservative now facing multiple charges

An Oakland man accused of assaulting a conservative activist on the campus of University of California, Berkeley, last month is now facing multiple charges, including three felonies, the Alameda County district attorney's office announced Tuesday.
Prosecutors charged Zachary Greenberg, 28, with "assault with force likely to produce great bodily injury, battery with serious bodily injury, and criminal threats," according to WTVU-TV. Each charge is a felony in the state of California.
He was also charged with misdemeanor vandalism.
"We are pleased that the good investigative work of our police department has led to the filing of these charges," Dan Mogoluf, a Berkeley official, told Fox News. "The university believes that those who violate the free-speech rights of others must be held accountable and face the appropriate consequences."
The charges against Greenberg were made public days after he was arrested for the alleged assault, which took place on Feb. 19. He was later released on bail.
Video of the incident shows Greenberg and a friend approach Hayden Williams, a conservative activist who was handing out recruitment materials for a right-wing activist organization. Greenberg was apparently enraged over the pro-Trump material Williams distributed.
An argument ensued and quickly devolved into a physical confrontation when one of the two men slapped a cellphone from Williams' hand. Williams began filming the encounter because he felt that he might be in danger.
During a struggle over the phone, Greenberg allegedly punched Williams several times, video evidence shows.

Play with fire...get burned. The radical Dems might want to re-assess their "fundamental change" strategy, relative to all the Red on that Map. There is a line once crossed, means ones can not return to the former status quo. Like the one this yahoo crossed.
I hope the Victim lawyers up with the best. Like the Covington Youth did.

This is still the party of love trumps hate, right?

I am amazed by individuals who are triggered by the word alleged. This is the definition of alleged from Websters:
1: accused but not proven or convicted for example: an alleged burglar
With any crime, you are alleged to have committed a crime until you're convicted or acquitted. Why is this so hard to comprehend today, especially younger people?
I realize the thought police have a challenge with this, but it is the definition. Thoughts?

he's going to be a very popular girl getting passed around in jail. But he's probably into that kind of thing and looking forward to it.

Hate crime?

That'll look good on his resume...

Unless you're working on your 2nd or 3rd PHD, what are you doing in college at 28? Oh right.... Millennial, prog, soy boy POS.

Lol, they love to use that word “allegedly” anytime it concerns one of their own filth.
It is quite literally on video, and they still say it is alleged.

Think we'll ever see a left-wing activist organization in our lifetimes?
