Conservative influencer Nick Sortor cleared from charge after Portland protest
- On Monday, prosecutors in Multnomah County dismissed a misdemeanor charge of second-degree disorderly conduct against conservative influencer Nick Sortor, who had been arrested during a protest outside the ICE facility in Portland last Thursday night.
- Authorities arrested Sortor and two others following a heated confrontation sparked by an anti-ICE protest, where Sortor was filming demonstrators and became involved in a physical altercation.
- According to video footage and court records, Sortor took an umbrella from a protester, Angella Davis attempted to strike him with a stick, and Yi is accused of shoving him into a stormwater bioswale during the altercation.
- The district attorney’s office stated that, based on their thorough assessment of the evidence such as reports and video footage, they could not establish beyond a reasonable doubt that Mr. Sortor committed disorderly conduct.
- The dropped charge ended plans for Sortor's arraignment that day and prompted broader political scrutiny of police and prosecutorial actions surrounding Portland demonstrations.
