Last month, a San Pedro man who threatened a group of protestors calling themselves the “Good Trouble Brigade,” was charged with criminal threats by the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.
Timothy James Carroll, known around town as “Yo” faces six felony counts of criminal threats alleged to be hate crimes as well as one felony count each of possession of a firearm by a felon: .357 Magnum, unlawful possession of ammunition and possession of a leaded cane.
Deputy District Attorney Paul Kim of the Hate Crimes Section said Carroll also faces one misdemeanor count of possessing a controlled substance, hydrocodone.
The defendant pleaded not guilty to the charges last week and is scheduled to return on Nov. 13.
Carroll allegedly threatened the small group of peaceful protestors holding a memorial on a public San Pedro sidewalk this past Sept. 4 and 11, the prosecutor said.
Bail is set at $190,000. If convicted as charged, the defendant faces a possible maximum sentence of more than 12 years in state prison.
