Oregon state Rep. Mike Nearman, the Polk County Republican who
allowed far-right demonstrators to breach the state Capitol in
December, now faces criminal charges.
According to court records, Nearman has been charged with first-
degree official misconduct, a class A misdemeanor, and second
degree criminal trespass, a class C misdemeanor.
The decision to charge Nearman follows a monthslong
investigation by state police that began Dec. 21. As lawmakers
met in a special legislative session to take up COVID-19 relief
that day, surveillance footage showed Nearman exiting the locked
Capitol building into a throng of protesters who were trying to
get inside the statehouse. In doing so, he appeared to
purposefully grant entrance to far right groups demanding an end
to ongoing restrictions related to COVID-19.
