Prior to her arrest, Priola voiced concerns about pedophilia and child sex trafficking conspiracies in her January 6th resignation letter from her job as a school therapist, according to the New York Post.
In the letter, Priola listed her union’s supposed funding of “people and groups that support the killing of unborn children” and her objection to “taking the coronavirus 19 vaccine in order to return to in person learning” among the reasons for her exit according to a report by The Hill.
“I will be switching paths to expose the Global evil of human trafficking and pedophilia,” wrote Priola in the letter.
Priola was charged with unlawfully entering/remaining on restricted grounds, violent entry, disorderly conduct and unlawful parading. according to The Hill.
A spokesperson for Priola’s school district said, according to the Associated Press, “The right of peaceful protest, as protected by the first amendment, is a foundation of our democracy. The forcible takeover and willful destruction of our government is not.”
Priola’s union president, Shari Obrenski told WKYC “It is the exact opposite of what we teach our students… Anyone who participated must bear the very serious consequences of their actions.”
ABC News‘ Cleveland affiliate reported Priola was later released on a $20,000 bond.
