Occupy County Posts Wrong Mugshot for Arrested Protester
Posted by Sarah Mirk on Mon, Aug 6, 2012 at 1:44 PM
Whoops! Due to a "computer glitch," the county jail posted the wrong photo for the squatter arrested last night as an anti-foreclosure group attempted to "liberate" a duplex for sale in NE Portland.
The mugshots for protester Derek Zika was replaced with the mugshot for a man named Josh Lipka, who was booked a few minutes after Zika for domestic violence and parole violation. Lipka's face—complete with bloody nose—ran in multiple media stories this morning about the protest and arrest.
The actual Derek Zika looks not quite as intimidating.
