KOOTENAI COUNTY, Idaho — Just one week after its recommendation, the Coeur d'Alene City Attorney's Office has filed charges against six men involved in the forced removal of a woman at a Kootenai County town hall in February.
As Idaho News 6 has reported, Teresa Borrenphol was removed from the February meeting by men in plain clothes, after repeatedly interrupting speakers.
Days later, the business license for a private security firm, Lear Asset Management, was revoked for violating City ordinances regarding security agencies, according to the Coeur d'Alene Police Department.
