This case revolves around the actions of Tiny Toese and others in the Parkrose neighborhood of Portland in August 2021, where they took over the parking lot of a closed K-Mart for a far right rally after being chased away from their original downtown location by a concentrated leftist counterprotest. The day eventually ended up with a urban battle on the streets of Parkrose while the police, at the Mayor's direction, stood back and merely surveilled.
Tiny was released from pre-trial custody in June 2022, but an affidavit filed in November 15, 2022 claims that he has let his GPS ankle monitor run out and is out of contact with pre-trial release offices. That day a nationwide warrant was issued for his arrest.
On January 19th, 2023, he was arrested on his failure to appear warrant. The next day, a new bail was set for $1M ($100,000 cash) with the prior $85,000 raised for him by supporters forfeit[1] by Judge Celia Howes. During the hearing, the defense claimed that Mr. Toese was homeless at the time the GPS ran out, and that the new bail of $1.5M the state was asking was excessive due to him working a minimum wage job. The state countered that he had been picked up on the warrant after a domestic violence call in Washington state (a similar DV call was responsible for his initial arrest in March 2022) and that he had accrued several new warrants in Washington state, but declined to explain what those warrants were for. They also explained that Mr. Toese hadn't raised the original $85K for bail himself, that it was spearheaded through Proud Boys, of which he is or was a member, and other like minded groups.
