Riley Gaines says dismissal of case against protesters shows 'double standard'

Former University of Kentucky swimmer Riley Gaines said police are playing into a “double standard” by dropping her case against protesters.

Gaines appeared on Hannity Thursday to offer further details about the incident last April, when Gaines was giving a speech at a Turning Point USA event at San Francisco State University. Suddenly protesters stormed in, interrupted the event with chants, and flicked the lights on and off. Gaines was led away by a police officer, and she told authorities that she was held for hours in a room while protesters demanded a ransom. San Francisco police have since informed Gaines that they are dropping the case because her allegations are “unfounded.”
