Protester Removed After Calling Hayward “Criminal”

HeadlineJun 18, 2010

Hayward’s appearance was briefly interrupted by protester Diane Wilson of the group CODEPINK, who called for Hayward’s criminal prosecution.

Diane Wilson: “This is what it looks like on the Gulf! This is what it looks like in the marshes! This is what it looks like for the people on down there! And I think you need to be charged with a crime! You need to go to jail! Matter of fact, I’ve got some chains, and I’m going to do a citizen’s arrest! You need to be charged with crimes! You need to be charged with crimes!”
