Unbelievable - UCLA mob attacker Eyal Shalom, who received a complete joke of a plea deal from the District Attorney, has not even complied with those conditions. More detail in thread below.
I went in this morning to give my victim's impact statement and it seems to have had an impact. But first, I was informed by the DDA that Eyal Shalom was not completing the counseling sessions that are required to complete the R.E.A.C.H.H program and the judge was not happy about that.
Yep, tomorrow is the day where I get to go confront the scumbag who used tear gas on me, a journalist, while I was trying to do my job at the UCLA attack in 2024. They already gave Eyal Shalom diversion but now I get to give them hell.

The emails have Summers reporting to Epstein about his attempts to date a Harvard economics student & to hit on her during a seminar she was giving.
