Four people on a Biden campaign bus accused police of ignoring requests for help as they drove on Interstate 35 surrounded by Trump supporters. They alleged that officers “joked about the victims and their distress.' A second lawsuit related to the incident remains pending.
Four people in a Biden campaign bus say the city did ignored their calls for help when surrounded by Trump supporters on I-35.
surrounded by the Trump supporters who allegedly drove dangerously close to the bus while honking and shouting, forcing it to slow to a crawl. The Klan Act bars groups from joining together to obstruct free and fair federal elections by intimidating and injuring voters, or denying them the ability to engage in political speech.
According to the settlement, police training must start by July 20, 2024 and attendance is mandatory. Any police department staff hired within 18 months of the training must also participate. In one transcribed recording, Daenzer, a San Marcos police corporal on duty the day of the incident, refused to provide an escort when recommended by another jurisdiction.
The amended filing also stated that law enforcement officers "privately laughed" and "joked about the victims and their distress." "I am so annoyed at New Braunfels for doing this to us," the dispatcher tells Daenzer, who answered the call and began laughing, according to the transcribed recording in the filing. "They have their officers escorting this Biden bus, essentially, and the Trump Train is cutting in between vehicles and driving — being aggressive and slowing them down to like 20 or 30 miles per hour. And they want you guys to respond to help.
The transcription shows that Daenzer said the Biden bus should "drive defensively and it’ll be great."According to the transcription in the complaint, the dispatcher gets back on the phone with the Biden staffer and tells him there would be no escort. One of the plaintiffs, Cervini, alerted Cole Stapp, a deputy in the city marshal’s department who was at the campaign stop in San Marcos, that the event was canceled and told him the bus "could really use your help," the filing stated.
