John David Rice-Cameron, president of Stanford College Republicans (SCR), is pressing charges against a female student who he said physically assaulted him on Oct. 9 at an event the group was holding in support of Brett Kavanaugh’s recent confirmation.
The SRC students were promoting a debate table that read “Kavanaugh is innocent until proven guilty,” when Melinda Hernandez, a student, allegedly hit Rice-Cameron, who subsequently called police.
“Nobody should be assaulted on campus,” he added.
Stanford Department of Public Safety spokesman Bill Larson told the Stanford Daily there was no apparent physical injury to either party.
“Violence is unacceptable and we will not let anyone get away with it,” the post read.
In a statement to Fox News, SCR wrote: “Yesterday’s events are yet another example of the violence and thuggery that is increasingly common from the unhinged left. ... People willing to resort to any means necessary to achieve their political objectives must be kept out of power.”
