UPDATE, 3:36 p.m.: The Lexington police confirm it in a statement, adding that Profitt is now a suspect (I've edited the above to clarify):

The Lexington Division of Police has identified a suspect in connection to the October 25, 2010 assault of a woman at 600 Cooper Drive.

On the 25th, at approximately 7:00p.m., officers were alerted to an active assault at 600 Cooper Drive (Kentucky Educational Television Studios).

Officers responded to the scene of the assault and made contact with the victim. She identified herself as a member of MoveOn.org and stated she was assaulted while attempting to take a picture with candidate Rand Paul. Division of Police patrol officers took an assault report and forwarded the case to the Division of Police Bureau of Investigation.

Today, October 26, 2010, detectives identified the suspect, involved in the assault, as Tim Profitt. Mr. Profitt is currently being served with a criminal summons ordering him to appear before a Fayette County District Court Judge.

Only covers from 3/15/10 to 9/15/10, but it's intriguing:

15. Thanks! n/t

23. Woa!

There's something to hand to jerk-offs who say "oh but the left does it too...."

[A-Schwarzenegger]

3. But he apologized already!

Kind of.

[dixiegrrrrl]

4. Memo to Profitt: when you assault , do not do it on camera.

Hope there is follow up as to what his sentence will be.

[golddigger]

5. Fuckin Aye! Lock up that sorry piece of maggot

infested shithead.:mad:

[enough]

6. There was more than one person involved. Others were clearly shown shoving her down

to the ground and holding her there for the convenience of the foot-guy.

12. The victim had already been subdued when headstomper attacked her. Even if they were RP's security

the notion that 3 or 4 men needed to use such force to protect "Dr" (I use the term loosely) Paulbot Jr. from such a petite lady is just absurd. Their actions are clearly beyond the pale. I have no sympathy for these fucknuts and I I hope the judge throws the book at them.

7. W00T!

Charge every last of of those thugs!

[yourout]

8. He should be being booked and bailed.

[Erose999]

9. Any word on whether the victim is pressing charges? I hope she does and sues RP and the Bourbon

County Tea Party for everything they have.

10. good to hear

glad to see this asshole going down

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

11. ...

[Blue Owl]

13. Ta ta, Timmy

Let those true colors shine through...

[Hassin Bin Sober]

16. What about the other one? There were at least two assailants.

[Heywood J]

17. As I said in another post, fuck the idea of a summons.

Send two deputies out there to cuff him and drag his ass back to Lexington! None of this voluntary surrender bullshit.

If we send the SWAT team after a nonviolent drug offender, we can send deputies to pick up a violent thug.

[AsahinaKimi]

18. about time...

[Scurrilous]

19. Great news.

:thumbsup:

[donheld]

20. Let's hope he get's what he deserves

[kath]

21. What about the other ones?? There were at LEAST 3 men involved.

24. Please, a HUGE civil lawsuit. Amen. nt

25. Wow, criminal summons, eh?

If it had been one of us stomping on the neck of a rand paul supporter:

26. Summons!?!?

He savagely attacked a 23 year old woman while 2 other men held her down on the ground and he gets a SUMMONS?!?

The fact that he is not in handcuffs along with the animal who tackled her to the ground infuriates me.

[herbm]

27. Why no perp walk?

[BobbyBoring]

28. But what about

All the left wing violence!!
