A staffer from Sen. Rand Paul’s (R-Ky.) office has been attacked in Washington, D.C., according to a statement from the congressman’s office.
In a statement to outlets, Paul said that a member of his staff “was brutally attacked in broad daylight in Washington, D.C.,” over the weekend.
“I ask you to join Kelley and me in praying for a speedy and complete recovery, and thanking the first responders, hospital staff, and police for their diligent actions,” he added.
In a statement on Monday, the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia (MPD) said the attack took place on March 25 and police were dispatched around 5:17 p.m. to 1300 block of H Street, Northeast, in response to a reported stabbing.
The victim was taken to a hospital for “treatment of life-threatening injuries.”
There has been no update as to the staffer’s condition as of late Monday.
Glynn Neal, 42, was arrested on the same day of the attack. He was charged with assault with intent to kill with a knife, according to the MPD statement.
Neal had been sentenced in 2011 to more than 12 years in prison for compelling two women to engage in prostitution, according to a release (pdf) from the Department of Justice.
“Neal had been sentenced in 2011 to more than 12 years in prison for compelling two women to engage in prostitution, according to a release (pdf) from the Department of Justice”. Another criminal that should never have been in society. The liberal way is to leave criminals on the street and look what it gets us, complete chaos in a society.
That’s their goal. TOTAL CHAOS so we beg for UN Intervention, i fear.
