A Princeton graduate and a human rights lawyer were both charged in an attack that left a police car dashboard charred. No one was injured.
Two lawyers were charged with taking part in a Molotov cocktail attack on a police patrol car over the weekend — a human rights lawyer and a Princeton-educated associate at a Manhattan law firm.

The attack during the Brooklyn protests left the dashboard of a blue-and-white police car charred after a night of violent clashes between protesters and police, a symbol of the chaos wrought over a weekend of sometimes peaceful and sometimes violent demonstrations.

The car was unoccupied when the Molotov cocktail ignited, and no one was injured, the authorities said.

The two lawyers involved in the attack were identified by federal authorities as Urooj Rahman, 31, the human rights lawyer, and Colinford King Mattis, 32, an associate at the midsize law firm of Pryor Cashman LLP, who graduated from Princeton.

Both were arrested shortly after the incident early Saturday during protests against the killing of George Floyd, federal authorities said.

Mr. Mattis and Ms. Rahman were charged with causing damage to a police vehicle by fire and explosives, according to a criminal complaint filed by federal prosecutors in Brooklyn.

The Brooklyn prosecutors on Saturday also charged a 27-year-old woman from Catskill, N.Y., in a separate Molotov cocktail attack against another police vehicle, about 10 minutes later and a mile and a half away.

A Princeton graduate and a human rights lawyer.......


Hairy-Assed Civil Libertarians- No bag limit. No closed season.
If the NY state Bar Association has any balls, that will be the end of their law licenses.

Mighty big If.
No doubt, they are probably Law abiding card carrying self serving members of the ACLU.


They make people like them JUDGE'S IN NYC

doesn't seem like a good career move
If that isn't domestic terrorism, using ATF controlled devices,
I don't know what would be.
Hope they get canned from whatever jobs they held.

They’ll plea out for community service, volunteering to represent other “protesters”, arguing they need to keep their law licenses to serve the greater good.
