October Protest Wrapup
Protesters in Antofagasta placed barricades in the region of Cachimba, burning tires to demand the resignation of Chilean President Sebastian Piñera and amnesty for all political prisoners of the 18th of October Uprising.
Dozens of protesters in Santiago gathered at the Courts of Justice during the trial of 3 young men accused by police of burning down the Principado hotel, who if found guilty could serve multiple years in prison, more than they have already served in brutal pre-trial detention.
Around 100 protesters in Rochester marched after no officers were charged in the murder of Daniel Prude, a black man suffocated by police who put a hood over his entire head, causing him to die a week later. Demonstrators marched to the Rochester Public Safety Building, pushing aside barricades and pushing on the front door before dispersing.
