Peaceful Resolution Sought in Mosque Case
On March 4, Tahnee Gonzales, 32, and Elizabeth Dauenhauer, 51, who described themselves as "patriots," drove to the Tempe Islamic Community Center with two dogs and three children and ridiculed Muslims for nearly 25 minutes.
When they arrived at the mosque, they went through unlocked gates, past a no-trespassing sign into a courtyard, where they took devotional pamphlets from a drawer and posters from a bulletin board. Gonzales narrated, interspersing her account with slurs against Muslims and allegations that they use the Constitution against American citizens. They encouraged the children to help take pamphlets and brochures.
The women were arrested and charged with burglary (which in legal terms refers to entering a premise with intent to commit a felony) and aggravated criminal damage — defacing a place of worship. They also face misdemeanor counts of child endangerment and disorderly conduct.
The incident was noted nationally, amidst a rise in anti-Muslim sentiment.
On July 12, at a routine hearing in Maricopa County Superior Court, attorneys for the women said they were personally negotiating a settlement with Montgomery.
The Attorneys For Freedom Law Firm hopes to broker a peaceful settlement that is a win-win-win for all parties in the case.
Thumbing through the phone book or surfing the internet for legal help is not the best way to select an attorney. Don’t trust your legal problem to an attorney you know nothing about.
The Attorneys on Retainer program at the Attorneys For Freedom Law Firm is an opportunity to both secure a trusted law firm and to avoid paying outrageously high legal fees.
Happy Thanksgiving! Steem on with patriko!
