Occupy ICE protesters plead not guilty to misdemeanor charges

Seven Occupy ICE protesters Monday pleaded not guilty in federal court to misdemeanor charges alleging they created disturbances and failed to comply with federal officers' orders to leave the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in Southwest Portland.

The seven appeared separately with defense lawyers before U.S. Magistrate Judge Jolie A. Russo.

A three-day trial is set for March 11.

The defendants are Cameron M. Cruscial, Lauren M. Halcomb-Hudson, MacKenzie G. Hilmes, Emma C. Mavros, Anna V. Moklayk, Kathryn A. Pyland and Stuart W. Tanquist.

They initially appeared in federal court facing citations stemming from the June 28 demonstrations outside the ICE office that started on Father's Day.
