She alleged that he “repeatedly attempted to assault me and other members.”
On Friday night, Greene’s spokesman Nick Dyer told The Daily Beast that after their office called local police about the whistleblower protester, police “did not arrive until” the whistler had left the area.
“No one from the prison tried to arrest him,” he added, while citing a DC criminal code on disorderly conduct. “We waited over four minutes on hold for a 911 call.” The Metropolitan Police Department did not return the Daily Beast’s emailed request for comment and did not comment by telephone on Friday evening.
