A Black Lives Matter chapter in Washington state is demanding that a white county sheriff resign after he was charged with falsely claiming that a Black newspaper carrier had threatened to kill him.
Washington state BLM demands resignation of sheriff charged with lying about Black news carrier
Pierce County Sheriff Ed Troyer is charged with one count of false reporting and one count of making a false or misleading statement to a public servant, according “What he did was malicious,” Remmu said. “It’s clear: This sheriff was trying to get an innocent man killed. This is basically a case of swatting, where you are intentionally calling the police and lying, saying that your life is under threat so that the police respond ready to use excessive or deadly force.”
At least 40 officers arrived and swarmed Altheimer’s car, ordering him to keep his hands on the wheel. Police told Altheimer that Troyer claimed Altheimer had threatened to kill him.
