From the link: "various videos captured her wearing protective goggles and gloves, taking a flaming piece of wooden police barricade from the rear window of the sedan that was already on fire, and then shoving the flaming wood into the SUV that was not on fire." Having protective goggles and gloves?

Did you forget about pandemic?

  Good point. Blood samples of corona virus disease patients frequently show markers of neurological damage. The defense attorney could try the "Infectious toxic encephalopathy" gambit .

pandemics + police brutality means protective gear is a must!

Pandemic and police use of chemical weaponry makes googles and gloves a pretty standard precaution for attending a protest these days.

That was a rational premeditative act. It wasn't "caught up" in the moment.

I went to a protest with goggles after reading about my friends in Philly getting gassed. You don't have to be doing anything illegal for police to gas you. https://whyy.org/articles/eyes-blistering-crawling-on-highway-what-it-felt-like-to-be-tear-gassed-on-676/ https://whyy.org/articles/eyes-blistering-crawling-on-highwa...

Pretty standard at protests that have teargas.
