Did UCI Police Enable May 2018 Disruption?

Friday, September 21, 2018 16:26

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Last May, a College Republican event at UC Irvine featuring Israeli reservists as speakers was disrupted by a bunch of anarchists. Video taken of the disruption shows that campus police entered the room and allowed the disruption to continue approximately five minutes before ushering the protesters out. Nobody was arrested, and it appears nobody was even identified. They were from off-campus since Students for Justice in Palestine’s UCI chapter is on a two year probationary status based on previous disruptions. Now Stand With Us, an organization that supports Israel and Jewish students on campuses who are targeted for their support of Israel, has assisted in the filing of criminal complaints. It is charged that UCIPD and university officials were complicit in allowing the disruption to continue before it was stopped. Below is the text of SWU’s press release.

StandWithUs Helps File Criminal Complaints at UC Irvine, After Evidence Emerges of Possible Police and Administrative Collusion with Anti-Israel Demonstrators

Building on the momentum gained fighting back against anti-Israel extremists and uncooperative school administrations, students and community members filed criminal complaints with the University of California-Irvine campus police, demanding an investigation and possible prosecution for an illegal anti-Israel disruption in May 2018. Campus police will refer the matter to Orange County District Attorney Tony Rackauckas. Rackauckas previously made history with the 2011 prosecution and conviction of the famous “Irvine 11,” who disrupted Israeli Ambassador Michael Oren in 2010 when he spoke at UCI. He is considered one of California’s most seasoned, no-nonsense DAs.

Debbie Glazer, a leading attorney in StandWithUs’s pro bono network, and co-chair of the StandWithUs Orange County Chapter, attended the event and believes that UCI police and administration enabled the disruption. A 2017 UCI Senate report on campus police conduct may reflect this campus climate of enabling. The report encourages student protesting with minimal administration interference, and offers university police wide discretion in terms of punishment for misconduct. In her criminal report, Glazer included a list of laws violated and concluded “that the UCI Police and the UCI Administration were not interested in protecting the safety of the audience members or of enforcing explicit UCI policies.”

StandWithUs commends the students and community activists for their activism, and hope that their actions will empower others across the country to stand up when their rights have been similarly infringed.
