Woman arrested during protest outside of former Rock Hill officer's home following verdict

After a jury found former Rock Hill police officer Jonathan Moreno not guilty of misdemeanor assault in the arrest of Travis Price last June, Moms Against Racism says they will continue to protest for change. "Moreno was exonerated by an almost exclusively white jury, a jury which did not represent the racially diverse makeup of Rock Hill's population," Natasha Witherspoon, founder of Moms Against Racism, said. "It is therefore obvious that our justice system in Rock Hill is both biased and broken. Until it is fixed, innocent citizens will continue to be harmed by the very people sworn to protect us." On Thursday, Witherspoon was arrested after protesting outside of Moreno's home in Rock Hill. Witherspoon was reportedly using a loudspeaker. In a statement, the Rock Hill Police Department confirmed the arrest. "There has been an arrest made tonight regarding Violation of the City Noise Ordinance," according to the statement, "One person was given a warning by officers regarding violating the Noise Ordinance by using a sound amplifying device. There was repeated use of the device after the warning and the person was arrested." READ MORE: https://www.wcnc.com/article/news/cri...
