Suspect Garret Doty's release is a requirement by law after former SFFD Commissioner Don Carmignani missed his opportunity to testify. Here's the latest:
But eyes remain on the case after a bombshell allegation by the public defender's office.
They're accusing Carmignani of being the aggressor, claiming Doty was actually acting in self-defense when he attacked Carmignani with that metal rod -- further linking Carmignani to at least eight attacks on unhoused people. The public defender's office released video from a Nov. 2021 incident, claiming the person appearing to spray a homeless man with bear or pepper spray appears to be Carmignani.Another video reportedly shows a confrontation between the suspect and victim before the attack.Public defender Kleigh Hathaway says Carmignani "has a pattern of spraying and assaulting homeless people."
ABC7 News checked with SFPD about those eight alleged attacks being pinned on Carmignani by the public defender's office. The DA and police say they don't have any police reports filed specifically connecting Carmignani to those incidents.Prosecutors say he was unable to make a court appearance because of the severity of his injuries, saying he is still not well enough to be in court.
