William Nietzche, 35, walked through his childhood bedroom on December 8, and pointed out the places where he said officers rifled through his belongings. Nietzche and six others were arrested to officers who arrived at the home early Tuesday morning. ”It’s devastating,” said Nietzche, who said his family is Upper Skagit. “It’s almost like a dream.

Boise, Idaho health district meeting canceled by police after armed protesters threaten board members’ homes
At the insistence of the Boise, Idaho police chief and mayor, the Central District Health (CDH) board shut down its meeting Tuesday night before it could vote on a new public health order imposing limited COVID-19 restrictions. Roughly 600 anti-mask protesters had gathered outside the barricaded office building to oppose any measures to curtail the spread of the coronavirus, while separate groups of protesters, some carrying weapons, threatened the homes of board members.
While it did not appear that anyone inside the building where the members were meeting was in physical danger dozens of police had surrounded the building police insisted that the meeting be called off in the interests of “public safety.” After it was announced that the meeting would be canceled, the crowd packing the parking lot erupted in cheers.
