In 2020, Matthew Dolloff, an unlicensed security guard contracted through Pinkerton, shot and killed Lee Keltner, a conservative protester, in Denver, Colorado. Dolloff had been contracted by Pinkerton to guard a camera-crew working for 9News. The camera crew had been assigned to cover rival political groups protesting in Denver. Keltner had told a cameraman to stop filming him; Dolloff then approached Keltner. Keltner slapped Dolloff before spraying him with bear spray, and moments later Dolloff shot Keltner. Dolloff was arrested, investigated for first-degree murder, and charged with second-degree murder. The charge was later dropped
I’m mandela’d on this one, I thought he wasn’t actively employed as a pinkerton at the time, and that he got killed in a shoot-out at a house with the pigs a day or two later, I’m probably conflating it with another event from around then if anyone knows anything that would fit?
On August 29, 2020, Aaron Danielson, an American supporter of the far-right group Patriot Prayer,[1][2] was shot and killed, allegedly by a far-left activist, after participating in a caravan which drove through Portland, Oregon, displaying banners and signs supporting President Donald Trump,[3] and clashing with participants in the local George Floyd protests.[3][4]
On September 3, 2020, Danielson’s suspected killer, Michael Reinoehl, an American anti-fascist[3][5] activist[6][7] was shot and killed by a federally led fugitive task force near Lacey, Washington.[8][9]
