Continuing the discussion from How can Donald Trump win at this point?:
I’m no legal eagle, but here is the Haitian Bridge Alliance complaint:
It is summarized here:
Haitian immigrant group calls for arrest warrants for Trump and Vance in Ohio
I am unfamiliar with the law allowing a private citizen to “file charges”.
Usually, a person has the ability to file a criminal complaint with law enforcement, but it’s within the discretion of the police whether to arrest, and the prosecutor whether to pursue a criminal case.
In Ohio, it appears that a private citizen can seek to initiate a charge. If I’m reading this correctly, it would still go before a judge or prosecuting attorney to decide whether it should be pursued.

I doubt this goes anywhere. But it does bring ongoing publicity to Trump’s atrocious debate performance.
Here’s the case:
Guerline Jozef, on behalf of the Haitian Bridge Alliance, Inc., respectfully offers this bench memorandum in support of the attached affidavit under R.C. 2935.09(A) and (D). The affidavit-which is properly submitted under the plain language of the statute to a judge of this Court for review and not the prosecutor’s office charges Donald J. Trump andJames David (JD) Vance with the following criminal offenses:
• RC. 2909.04(A) and (B) (Disrupting Public Services),
• RC. 2917.32(A)(Making False Alarms),
• RC.2923.03(4)(Complicity),
• R.C. 2917.21(A) (Telecommunications Harassment),
• RC. 2903.21(A) (Aggravated Menacing),
• S.C.0. 537.08 (Telecommunications Harassment),
• SCO. G501.10 (Complicity)
The Haitan Bridge Alliance and Ms. Jozef respectfully request that this Court make independent findings of probable cause based on the facts presented-and issue warrants for Trump’s and Vance’s arrests
