Seven Protesters Sentenced for Bridge Blockade | California News
Description
Seven protesters who shut down the Golden Gate Bridge in April to protest U.S. involvement in Gaza were sentenced Friday to 30 days in jail each, plus six months probation — a stark punishment for making their voices heard despite causing major traffic chaos. Originally part of a 26-person group, only these seven faced conviction after charges were dropped or reduced for most others; one, Sara Canto, took on an additional riot-related charge. The verdict marks a dramatic close to a long legal battle, raising questions about free speech and civil disobedience in America.
