‘This was no accident’: Haitian group now accuses Trump and JD Vance of felony ‘inducing panic’ with ‘unrelenting lies’ about immigrants ‘eating the cats’ and pets of Springfield

A panel of judges on a local Ohio court has not only declined to issue arrest warrants for Donald Trump and JD Vance over “eating the cats” rhetoric directed at Haitian immigrants, but also stated flatly the nonprofit group accusing the Republican ticket of political speech crimes did not establish probable cause in an affidavit that may not have been filed in “good faith.”

The en banc Clark County Municipal Court’s ruling on Friday included a majority opinion and a concurrence concluding that the Haitian Bridge Alliance, the group’s executive director Guerline Jozef, and lead attorney Subodh Chandra ran into a brick wall — the First Amendment — and were only entitled to a referral to the Clark County Prosecuting Attorney, meaning prosecutors, not a court fielding a citizen affidavit, will have to decide “whether any prosecution is warranted.”
