“It sort of started, Paige was blowing the whistle then it looked like Miss Savanah, she kind of pushed her face,” stated James Cook, the legal professional for the family.
Cook claims the video exhibits Turning Point USA reporter Savanah Hernandez strikes first.
“What I’ll say is it looked like to me that she pushed Paige’s face or her head or something similar to that and then it seemed to escalate from there,” Cook stated.
Hernandez claims she was simply doing her job as a journalist, observing what was taking place.
“I was assaulted four times prior as I was trying to leave that event from behind, by the way, so every single time I tried to leave, I was assaulted, so the only time I actually tried to defend myself was after the fifth time when I had just gotten slammed to the ground by Chris Ostroushko,” Hernandez stated.
“They wish that they could turn back the clock, things would turn out differently,” Cook stated.
Parents Deyanna and Chris Ostroushko say they’ve since misplaced their jobs. The performing legal professional basic of the United States posted their names when asserting their federal indictment Wednesday.
The Ostroushkos stated they’re getting doxxed, even getting threats of sexual violence.
