Fox News
Three suspects were charged and released weeks after allegedly smearing pig's blood on a northern California home previously owned by a defense witness who testified in the trial for former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, officials announced on Wednesday.
The home allegedly targeted by the women was previously owned by retired Santa Rosa police officer Barry Brodd – who testified in a Hennepin County courtroom last month that he believed Chauvin was justified in his use of force against George Floyd during his fatal arrest on May 25, 2020.
