A notorious Portland Antifa activist has been sentenced to jail and probation over a brutal assault he committed outside the Clackamas County Courthouse in August, leaving a male victim bloodied and brain injured. John Colin Hacker, 41 (b. 2/18/84), of Portland, pleaded guilty to charges on Wednesday. He attacked a man in a fit of rage after his comrade Alissa Azar, a violent ringleader of Portland Antifa, was convicted of felony charges following a five-day jury trial in Oregon City last summer.
Hacker, who has a history of violence, pleaded guilty to one count of misdemeanor assault. He has been sentenced to five days in jail and 24 months of supervised probation. The defendant has also been ordered to complete an intensive anger management course, pay a $300 fine, and have no contact with the victim, according to a plea agreement obtained by The Post Millennial.
Clackamas County Deputy District Attorney Benjamin Klassen prosecuted the case for the state of Oregon.
On August 14, 2024, John C. Hacker aggressively confronted a mentally disabled man, identified as Paul Pawlowski, outside the Clackamas County Courthouse, resulting in a heated verbal exchange that occurred just moments after Azar's criminal conviction. The two have a prior history stemming from their political activism in Oregon and are on opposing sides of the political spectrum. To put it simply, they are not fond of each other and have had previous court disputes, records show.
