Ryan Olthaus, "Officer suing for defamation admits to showing 'OK' sign, but said it was innocent reason."

"See, we're not racists."

"Proud Boys Did Nothing Wrong!"

"Their founder, Gavin McInnes, went so far as to file a defamation lawsuit against the Southern Poverty Law Center when the SPLC designated the Proud Boys a hate group."

Gottesman might want to get in on this.

Ryan Olthaus celebrated this late May violent, lawless Portland street brawl just a week before the City Hall incident as "Patriots kicking the shit out of antifa, enjoy!"

Quite a few black and yellow Fred Perrys can be seen among Olthaus' "patriots".

Tons more black and yellow Proud Boys among "family man" Ryan Olthaus' "patriots" in this video promoted just a week before the City Hall incident.

This extended compilation even celebrates Proud Boys sucker punching women.

Two threatening, inciting, violent videos in a week. Does that establish a pattern of conduct under Ohio's Menacing by Stalking statute? Olthaus has a demonstrated history of violence and violent acts.

Can antifascist demonstrators get a protection order?

This case is before the @CCAuthority Tuesday. Please watch the video linked in the thread. The CCA did a good job of objectively describing the video, but involved officer testimony largely frames Moore as an aggressor. His actions were 100% defensive.

Officers were MHRT trained, yet refused the actual MCT, instead escalating to a violent confrontation after only 12 minutes. The report doesn't say what MHRT tactics were used, only analyzes the use of force. But ORC 5122.10(C) says this is not an arrest:

In fact, Moore's brother specifically asked for MCT, not police. 'Witness A text his sister for her to get some assistance, “maybe mobile crisis”' (p.9). And even SWAT recommended them back to Carder (p. 13). 5122.10(C) mandates de-escalation. But 911 sent the violence workers. Image

To understand @RickyShiffer's attack on the FBI and the dissonance of #DefundTheFBI in the Trumpist "law and order" right, it's instructive to look at two case studies within Cincinnati police: Proud Boy sympatizer Ryan Olthaus and "rogue element" former Asst. Chief Dave Bailey.
Ryan Olthaus brought attention to himself when he threw the white power hand sign at a Black citizen during a 2020 city council meeting where many called for defunding the police. His problematic social media glorified Proud Boy violence. Full history:
The city manager called Dave Bailey a "corrupt", "rogue element" which "ultimately may require the intervention of outside law enforcement to ferret out." Forced to retire, Bailey began calling for civil war and overthrow of the US government, using language similar to Shiffer's.

The Rose Valentino IIS report concludes that a 16 year old student "walked by and raised his middle finger. Officer Valentino was infuriated by this gesture." That idea is only supported by her interview. No note of him is made in the BWC or MVR descriptions. 🧵
Did this happen? The DVR shows several redacted figures to the right and one 150 ft ahead at [0:30] as she blasted her siren next to a school.
But why would she be looking at them as she's making a tight one-handed left around a car she's still yelling at?
wcpo.com/news/local-new…
She then used the slur at [1:05] or 35 seconds after blasting her siren, and after yelling "Is she
going to fucking just sit there?" and "I fucking hate them so much".

If the middle finger was "the main reason for the outburst", why the half minute delay before her reaction?

@SethManey @pplonsker @damSprinkle @OTRCINCY It's gotta be Sinton Park. The yellow in the 1890ish Sanborn map is supposed to be frame buildings, but look at the shape of that "Sinton Shelter" structure in the middle. It's make sense if a sparse block of wood-frames became a park. I also think a couple pics are flipped L-R. ImageImageImage
@SethManey @pplonsker @damSprinkle @OTRCINCY I think flipping these two (the only ones w/out clear writing) lines them up with the rest. Now the marching band (barber pole the right way) is marching east up Barr St. with St. Anonius Church in the distance.

@SethManey @pplonsker @damSprinkle @OTRCINCY one more flip and I think we have a pretty decent 180 panorama east–south–west ImageImageImageImage

Today in history: June 24, 2020
SWAT cop Ryan Olthaus threw the white power hand sign at a Black woman at City Hall, there to speak about the police budget, according to 8 witnesses and video released by @ChrisSeelbach.

He went on to sue the woman for complaining to the CCA.
Ryan Olthaus' facebook page would show that in the two weeks prior to the City Hall incident, he'd suddenly become radicalized, unleashing a wild stream of right-wing Proud Boy street violence videos, anti-Antifa and -BLM propaganda, white victimhood and other violent fantasies.
June 13:
The Proud Boy "patriots" celebrated by Olthaus are recognizable by their black and yellow Fred Perrys.

This SWAT cop is celebrating lawless political street violence against anti-racists, coupled with a muddled Ben Franklin vs Communism ideology. ImageImage

3 days before Judge Shanahan ordered redacted from Ryan Olthaus' affidavit ONLY the very fact that he has a wife and kids—the basis of his lawsuit—his own lawyer had already IDed him on record and his wife Angela Janke Olthaus gave me a list of their kids' names and birthdays. ImageImageImageImage
For the record, his lawyer Zach Gottesman lied to the magistrate. Nobody had identified Ryan Olthaus' wife and kids, shared their address, or posted threatening messages online—except the Olthauses themselves, who'd published their address through the auditor, BoE and whitepages.
He swore a lying affidavit.

Never in the decade since his involvement in the killing of Dontez O'Neal, did SWAT cop Ryan Olthaus ever avail himself of O.R.C. 149.45(D)(1), which allows him to redact his address from public databases.
