| Subject: ‘Blood is on your hands’: Anti-vaccine activist who tossed menstrual cup on senators released Sat Sep 14, 2019 10:52 pm | |
| An anti-vaccine activist who traveled to the Capitol to demonstrate on the final day of the legislative year threw a menstrual cup with blood at state senators on Friday afternoon, splashing several lawmakers and forcing the lawmakers to finish session in a nearby hearing room. The woman was among several protesters watching the waning hours of the legislative session for year from the upstairs balcony in the Senate at 5:14 p.m., when she hurled what the California Highway Patrol called “a feminine hygiene device containing what appeared to be blood” at several lawmakers. “That’s for the dead babies,” she yelled. Rebecca Lee Dalelio, 43, was arrested on suspicion of felony vandalism, misdemeanor battery and four other counts related to disrupting official state business. She posted $10,000 bond and was released from the Sacramento County Main Jail on Saturday morning, according to sheriff’s department records. Officers said that after the incident, Dalelio walked out of the gallery and did not resist arrest. A video posted on Periscope showed Dalelio, dressed in black, shouting dead babies’ “blood is on your hands” as she was handcuffed and led away. The CHP did not speculate on her motives in a news release, describing her only as a “demonstrator,” but officers did tell reporters late Friday the substance was blood.
