That may be, but it still doesn't explain how the cops can charge him with intimidation of cops. Charges like that should only come from a prosecutor.

I agree that there may be a case of cops going beyond the law. I only looked into this since the Canada feed has about 4+ articles talking about this guy with very little details. A 2 second search shows he's basically a Russian agent.

Then cops can recommend charges be laid by the feds.

In no way, shape or form do the cops have any right to charge him with anything at this point.
