Criminal charges against Robert Paul Rundo for allegedly recruiting and training others to commit violence at rallies in Huntington Beach, San Bernardino, and Berkeley were dismissed by U.S. District Judge Cormac J. Carney, who accused the U.S. Attorney's Office of selective prosecution for pursuing suspected far-right, white supremacist nationalists but not Antifa and other extremist, far-left groups.
He was also accused of violently confronting people at a San Bernardino anti-Islamic law rally in 2017 that included violence and acts of vandalism and at a rally in Berkeley. Rundo touted the violent acts on social media in order to recruit prospective members to the Rise Above Movement, prosecutors alleged.
