Federal authorities released mugshots Thursday of Nekima Levy Armstrong, Chauntyll Louisa Allen and William Kelly after arresting them on January 22, 2026, for their roles in a January 18 anti‑ICE protest that stormed Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced the arrests, citing 18 U.S.C. §241 (conspiracy against rights). The demonstration accused a pastor of ties to ICE and disrupted worship. Prosecutors briefly sought charges against journalist Don Lemon for his livestream coverage, but a magistrate declined to authorize a complaint. Civil‑rights groups condemned the arrests as violations of First Amendment protections and sparked nationwide political debate.
