Donald Trump, JD Vance Get Ruling From Ohio Judges
Story by Rachel Dobkin • 13h
In response to a criminal complaint filed by a nonprofit, an Ohio judicial panel on Saturday decided not to issue arrest warrants for former President Donald Trump and his running mate JD Vance after they spread false claims about Haitian migrants eating pets in Springfield, Ohio.
During his debate against Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, last month, Trump, the GOP nominee, repeated a claim that Haitian migrants in Springfield were "eating the pets." Vance, a U.S. senator from Ohio, has also spread the false claim. Meanwhile, ABC News moderator David Muir fact-checked Trump during the September 10 debate and Springfield authorities have repeatedly denied such claims.
These false claims have threatened the safety of not only Springfield's Haitian community, but the entire city. Bomb threats were made in Springfield following the false claims, leading to the closures of schools and municipal buildings.
