Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky) assaulted on his property by retired osteopath (Guess-Ky)
2017-11-05
A Bowling Green man was arrested Friday and charged with fourth-degree assault after an incident at the Bowling Green home of U.S. Sen. Rand Paul.

Rene Boucher, 59, is in the Warren County Regional Jail in lieu of a $5,000 bond, according to online jail records available Saturday afternoon.

Paul suffered minor injuries, according to a news release from Kentucky State Police Post 3 in Bowling Green.

Paul told police the suspect tackled him from behind & forced him to the ground. Sen. Paul is also a currently licensed MD in Kentucky. The suspect, Rene A. Boucher, D.O. is listed as an "inactive physician", "retired" with KY license having expired 2/28/2015. Other sources indicate Boucher's specialty had been anesthesiologist / pain management.

#8  The Daily Caller adds:

Kentucky State Board of Election voting records list Boucher as a registered Democrat. A person with the same name also works as an anesthesiologist in Bowling Green.

A Facebook account that appears to be maintained by Boucher contains numerous anti-Donald Trump postings.

#7  One of OUR Representatives could have died today. It is important they maintain awareness.

There are always people that may want to kill you. I should know.

#6  The Latest: APNewsBreak: Paul recovering from 5 broken ribs
Unprovoked premeditated assault and only 4th Degree Assault (!!). *Boggle* Penitentiary time would seem more appropriate.

#3  Well with the Left stating that disagreement is punishable by violence, how is this a surprise? Anyone to the right of Mao Zedong is a Nazi.

#2  Would a James Hodgkinson, Kathy Griffin, or Antifa photo assist in the understanding of what is taking place here ?

Anything more on Stephen Paddock's motive from Sheriff
Lombardo, or the Feds ?
