Dear Friend,
I am BOILING MAD right now — and every American who believes in law and order should be too.
A good, brave police officer, Officer Chance Bretches, is facing 99 YEARS in prison for the “crime” of preventing Austin from being burned to the ground by violent rioters.
His trial was supposed to be December 8, but it has just been pushed all the way back to June 2026.
That’s not justice. That’s PUNISHMENT.
Punishment for being a cop. Punishment for doing his job. Punishment for refusing to let a mob destroy his city.
And I refuse to stand by while this evil happens.
DONATE NOW TO DEFEND OFFICER BRETCHES
Let me tell you exactly what happened—because the media will never tell the truth.
In May 2020, Austin exploded into chaos.
At first, a crowd gathered outside the Austin Police Department’s Eighth Street Headquarters. It was calm…for a moment.
But as night fell, the mob turned violent.
They hurled:
-
Rocks
-
Frozen water bottles
-
Fireworks
-
And anything else they could weaponize
Police officers were getting injured. The crowd was out for blood.
And yet the Austin Police remained restrained. They carefully identified the violent agitators.
They used nonlethal beanbag rounds — the EXACT tools they were trained to use — to stop the worst offenders and restore order.
But the next two days? The city descended into full-blown riots.
Buildings were vandalized, looted, and destroyed.
Police and civilian vehicles were set on fire.
A rioter was caught with a Molotov cocktail, ready to throw it. Dozens of violent criminals were arrested.
Austin was moments away from becoming another Seattle, another Portland — another city sacrificed to radicals.
Then came Sunday, May 31st. The third night. The most dangerous night of all.
A massive mob gathered again — larger, angrier, and more violent.
They targeted police headquarters.
They blocked a major highway.
They pushed the city to the brink of collapse.
If the police had lost control that night, Austin would STILL be burning.
But officers like Chance Bretches refused to surrender their city to the mob.
Chance followed his training.
He used nonlethal beanbag projectiles to stop the aggression.
He and his fellow officers held the line.
And the mob eventually melted away.
Bottom line: Officer Bretches helped keep Austin from burning to the ground.
DONATE TO CHANCE BRETCHES
He did EVERYTHING right.
He protected lives.
He protected property.
He prevented anarchy.
His supervisors have praised him for taking guns, drugs, and dangerous criminals off the streets…and for saving his fellow officers’ lives.
This man is a HERO.
But then… the radicals took power.
A socialist, anti-cop District Attorney — a man who prosecutes police instead of criminals — came into office.
And now Officer Bretches is paying the price.
He has been indicted on outrageous charges for using approved, nonlethal force against a violent mob.
His trial has been pushed into 2026 — because the prosecutor knows he doesn’t have a case, but he DOES have political ambitions.
This is what they do when they can’t convict a cop:
They drag the case out to financially ruin him.
They torture the officer’s family with years of fear and uncertainty.
They weaponize the justice system to destroy law enforcement.
Chance is staring down:
-
A mountain of legal bills
-
Years of emotional torment
-
And up to 99 years in prison
For WHAT? For STOPPING a riot. For PROTECTING the innocent.
For keeping Austin from burning.
My friend, this is a moral outrage.
And it’s why I’m asking — begging — you to help this good officer fight back.
DONATE NOW TO DEFEND OFFICER BRETCHES
Police officers don’t make the kind of money it takes to fight a years-long political prosecution.
Without us — without YOU — Chance Bretches will be swallowed alive by this corrupt system.
Please make an urgent contribution of $10, $15, $25, $50, $100, or more.
He’s a good officer. He’s a good man. He’s being targeted for destruction by a bad prosecutor.
We MUST stand with him.
Sincerely,
Sheriff Joe Arpaio (ret.)
