This first day of the 2010 Alaska State Fair starts with sunny skies and
a brutal assault by security personnel on a LaRouche supporter.
At about 5pm Alaska Time, Thursday, August 26, 2010, security personnel
approach Sidney Hill, a lone man peacefully displaying an impeach Obama
sign near Pioneer Plaza on the Alaska State Fairgrounds in Palmer. Minutes
later, a crowd assembles, additional security forces arrive, and they physically
assault the man holding the sign. He's taken to the ground with force and
detained.
Sidney Hill was in jail awaiting a pre-trial at 1:00pm on August 27,
2010 at the Palmer Courthouse. He has been charged with Assault 4-
Cause Fear Of Injury, Disorderly Conduct-Challenge To Fight, and Criminal
Trespass 2- Upon Premises. However, according to the Valley Frontiersman
newspaper, "Assistant District Attorney Trina Sears said her office decided
not to prosecute Hill on the assault charge."
