Multnomah County Circuit Judge Heidi Moawad said the assailant, Blake D. Hampe, will remain under her supervision for three years and is banned from possessing weapons or participating in unlawful assemblies or riots during that time. He may attend lawful demonstrations.
Hampe, now 46, was caught on video stabbing right-wing activist Andrew Duncomb, 28, outside the graffiti-smeared barricades surrounding the federal courthouse just after 2:30 a.m. on July 25, 2020, according to court documents.
"Right wing activist" = Journalist who was trying to film the riots.
Defense attorney Alicia Hercher said prosecutors struck a plea deal after seeing evidence that Duncomb’s injuries weren’t life-threatening.
That's fucking bizarre.
he said the knife entered his back and narrowly missed his spine.
Hampe pleaded guilty to attempted second-degree assault under the terms of the deal. He was previously convicted of possessing child pornography in federal court in Maine in 2008, according to court papers.
LAST LINE OF THE STORY.
I won't link it but the local Portland subreddit is essentially calling this guy a hero and supporting his actions. It is one of the more disgusting things I've seen in this shithole of a city.
After reading the 2nd parent comment, I watched the 49 second clip to verify. First, that gives no context as to whether the overalls stabber was following beforehand. Second, Duncomb wasn't carrying the knife or bear spray in his hands, which that comment and a few others were too eager to emphasize. Probation is too light a punishment, even if Duncomb was being a shithead.
