VNN's Alex Linder Convicted Of Resisting Arrest

Sentenced To Six Months Suspended, $250 Fine And Costs


Knoxville, Tennessee -- Vanguard News Network's Alex Linder was conviced yesterday of resisting arrest and sentenced to six months suspended provided he remains of good behavior during that period.
Charges of disorderly conduct and property destruction were dropped against Linder in exchange for his payment of a $250 fine and court costs.

Linder had been arrested after confronting police before a rally he had planned against black crime in protest of the rape-murder of Channon Christian and Chris Newsome in a Knoxville neighborhood.

The arrest had been costly for Linder, who had to post a $4500 bond and hire counsel to defend himself against the accusations.

Linder had objected to police presence at his event, which was protested by a group of homosexual clowns in dresses.
