On Jan. 18, 2022, a federal grand in the Western District of Oklahoma returned a two-count Indictment charging both defendants, who are white, with physically assaulting a Black man — as well as the Black man’s white friend — in the parking lot of the Brickhouse Saloon in Shawnee, Oklahoma. The indictment alleges that the assault occurred because of the Black man’s race and color.
