The transgender daughter of House Minority Whip Katherine Clark, D-Mass., has been sentenced to just one year of probation after reaching a deal with a Boston court concerning a number of charges she faced stemming from her role in a violent protest.
According to Fox News, Boston police arrested Riley Dowell in January during a protest after allegedly spray painting a monument and assaulting a police officer.
Dowell was charged with assault and battery on a police officer, vandalizing property, tagging property, vandalizing a historic marker/monument and resisting arrest.ย
According to local Fox affiliate WFXT, Dowell, who was 23 at the time of the arrest plead not guilty to the assault and vandalism charges, will be required to write a letter of apology to the officer she is accused of assaulting as part of the deal.
The news of her daughter's arrest broke when Clark took to social media to address the incident immediately after it occurred. โI love Riley, and this is a very difficult time in the cycle of joy and pain in parenting,โ she tweeted. โThis will be evaluated by the legal system, and I am confident in that process.โ
Following Dowell's arraignment just days later, Clark condemned violence against police at an unrelated event in Boston. โI condemn violence against everyone, whether that is against police or against community members as a result of any person or government entity,โ she said.
Despite denouncing violence against police, it was later revealed that Clark scrubbed an anti-police article from her official website titled, โDefund the police makes some Democrats uncomfortable. That's the point, activists say.โ

Letter of apology? Why not have her clean up the damage? During working hours, not on a convenient schedule, like after work or on weekends!
Work? You think this person actually works for aliving?
Com-a-comm-ahhh- commune – ty – community – serrv – ah you know the thing.
wow – the innocent of Jan 6 paid the devil?
If ot was a republican they would’ve gotten 10 yrs
Jail for 6 months to a year then probation for 2years
and restitution for all damages+cost.
Hmmm, do you think that would be the punishment for your child? I don’t think so. IMO
My children were raised better, they were taught to have respect for police and their country.
23 years old is not a โchild.โ Fake news headline.
Just another sign of the leftist poor parenting and one that her mother shouldn’t be in government.
Good If I was cop Id sue the Dem, DNC & any allies to strike
Make em Pay
Could you just imagine if this had been Trump’s daughter?
There should have been more consequences. If this had been a republican’s child, there would be an outrage. So, of course this child of a demo got off lightly. There is a change coming.
We no longer have a Republic.
Our Government, all Three Branches, is Corrupt to the core.
I guess I’d better change my political leanings to Democrat, because if you’re a Nutburger Leftist you can get away with Murder.
