Georgia Senator Colton Moore Arrested, Released on $1,000 Bond After House Chamber Confrontation
Jan 16, 2025, 07:16 PM
Georgia State Senator Colton Moore, a Republican from Trenton, was arrested after attempting to enter the state House chamber during Governor Brian Kemp's State of the State address. Moore had been previously banned from the House chamber following his critical remarks about the late House Speaker David Ralston in 2024. Despite the ban, Moore insisted on his right to attend the joint session, leading to a confrontation with House employees. He was physically pushed to the ground by Keith Williams, a lawyer for the speaker's office, before being handcuffed and taken to Fulton County Jail. Moore was charged with misdemeanor willful obstruction of law enforcement officers and was released after posting a $1,000 bond. Following his arrest, Moore received medical attention for injuries to his hand and stated his intention to return to the legislature the next day.
