Suspended Anti-Vax Cop Refuses To Leave Restaurant

The Boston Herald reports:

Embattled Boston Police sergeant and founder of an anti-vaccine mandate group, Shana Cottone, sparred with officers over her refusal to show proof of her vaccination status in a restaurant Saturday as the city’s new vaccination requirements took effect.

During a nearly hour-long video, Cottone and several other women sit and eat two large pizzas in violation of the city’s new vaccine policy. “History has shown, goose steppers like you trample on the rights of the innocent,” Cottone said.


Cottone is claiming a religious exemption and face three administrative charges regarding incidents involving the mayor.

She posted a video of the incident on her youtube channel but I'm not sharing it - she doesn't deserve the attention she desires. In fact, I reported it for promoting abusive behavior.

Are the remaining LE willing to do their jobs - or not?
The time honored response here? "Tell it to the judge."
