Abstract Note

Portland, OR, December 7, 2011 — Injured Occupy Portland protester Justin James Bridges will testify at Thursday’s City Council hearing on police accountability at 2pm at City Hall. Bridges was a victim of police brutality during the eviction of Chapman Square on November 13. He remains in a wheelchair, unable to feel or move his right hand and right leg. He has lost his livelihood as a professional guitarist and his avocation as the volunteer sign language interpreter for Occupy Portland. Bridges does not have health insurance and supporters have established a recovery fund to pay for his medical care and therapy.
