The San Francisco gallery owner who was recorded in a viral video spraying an unhoused woman with a hose will appear in court next month.
Prosecutors on Friday said that Collier Gwin will be arraigned on Feb. 17 at 9 a.m., about a month after the 71-year-old was arrested on a misdemeanor battery charge.
After community leaders called upon him to do so on Sunday, he apologized in a video shared with KGO-TV hours later.How a law backing overdose prevention sites could block them San Francisco supervisors may soon repeal a 2020 law that requires The City’s Department of Public Health to approve and permit any safe injection site
As the video circulated last week, the San Francisco Police Department said only that it was continuing to gather evidence in the case. Police said that both Gwin and the victim"declined further police action" when officers responded to a possible assault just after noon on Jan. 9. If convicted, Gwin faces a maximum sentence of six months in county jail and a $2,000 fine. He was no longer in San Francisco Sheriff's custody as of press time. A department spokesperson told The Examiner that they can't disclose any information, including bail amounts and when they were posted, about a person who is no longer in their system due to state privacy laws.
