Portland Antifa 'ringleader' Alissa Azar sentenced to jail over felony conviction

An Oregon judge has sentenced a violent Portland Antifa ringleader to jail time and probation following a trial last month. A jury of mostly women convicted Alissa Eleanor Azar, 33 (b. Feb. 12, 1991), of felony riot and disorderly conduct on Aug. 14 following a five-day criminal trial at the Clackamas County Courthouse in Oregon City.

Azar, who became a self-styled chief propagandist for Antifa in the Portland area, was sentenced on Monday afternoon by Judge Todd L. Van Rysselberghe for the 5th Judicial District Circuit Court of Oregon. He sentenced her to 14 days in a local jail, followed by 36 months of supervised probation and GPS monitoring. -- More...
