A Massachusetts woman is facing multiple assault and battery charges for allegedly releasing a swarm of bees on a group of sheriff’s deputies, some of them allergic to bee stings, as they tried to serve an eviction notice, authorities said.
…
The Hampden County Sheriff’s Department deputies went to a home in Longmeadow on the morning of Oct. 12 and were met by protesters, according to the official department report.
Woods, who lives in Hadley, soon arrived in an SUV towing a trailer carrying beehives, the report said. She started “shaking” the hives, broke the cover off one, causing hundreds of bees to swarm out and initially sting one deputy, according to the report.
Woods, who put on a beekeeper’s suit to protect herself, was eventually handcuffed but not before several more sheriff’s department employees were stung, including three who are allergic to bees, the report said.

This woman just jumped to the top of the list of people who I want to recruit for my anarchist commune
She has pollinators and she hates cops. Great addition.
This woman is awesome. Also, fuck the police.
Edit: fuck landlords too.
Assaulting police officers for doing their jobs? I guess I don’t get all the police hate around here. Seems like everyone here has been raped by a police officer at some point in their life.
A few rotten apples spoils the whole barrel.
Cops are the spoilt barrel, they’re all bastards and can get fucked.
Also fuck anyone who thinks one needs to be personally affected by an issue before they can take issue with it. Selfish pricks really.
Yes. Thank you. I am so tired of the. No it doesn’t work like that!! Oh wait now that it happened to me you are right….
Fucking imbeciles ruining our lives.
Lol ok I guess keep continuing the sweeping generalizations.
The job of police from their inception has been to protect the wealthy and their interests. The police are oppressors of the people. Always have been and without enormous systemic change they always will be.
One of the greatest scams was turning police, which started as private forces hired by businesses and wealthy individuals into something the public pays for through taxes.
Fuck the police.
Spoken from someone who has likely never interacted with them.
I have interacted with them many times. They tend to harass me and many others for fighting for basic human rights.
Lol sure
You should really open up your mind to other world views and start piercing the veil a bit bud.
I guess I don’t get all the Gestapo hate around here. Seems like everyone here has been sent to a concentration camp at some point. I haven’t had any problems so I just don’t get it
And before some literalist fuck chimes in, yes this is hyperbole, no I don’t think all cops are as bad as the Gestapo (weeeell… not quite as bad at any rate.) It’s exaggeration and sarcasm to make a point
Take a couple gallons of your own medicine fuck puppet. 🤣
Direct action bees 💪🐝
Where is her legal defense fund? This woman’s a goddamn American hero.
Well, I found this. It’s paused. And it leads to a weird video on Rumble if you read the description…
Good for her. Let the gang members get stung.
What a bad ass
WWCD? (What would Candyman do?)
This sounds like part of a Disney movie.
People come on, the police got stung. It really hurts.
YOU CAN DO IT WOODSIE!
This is the best summary I could come up with:
— A Massachusetts woman is facing multiple assault and battery charges for allegedly releasing a swarm of bees on a group of sheriff’s deputies, some of them allergic to bee stings, as they tried to serve an eviction notice, authorities said.
Her lawyer did not immediately respond to a voicemail left by The Associated Press on Wednesday.
Woods, who lives in Hadley, soon arrived in an SUV towing a trailer carrying beehives, the report said.
She started “shaking” the hives, broke the cover off one, causing hundreds of bees to swarm out and initially sting one deputy, according to the report.
Woods, who put on a beekeeper’s suit to protect herself, was eventually handcuffed but not before several more sheriff’s department employees were stung, including three who are allergic to bees, the report said.
Hampden County Sheriff Nick Cocchi said Woods could have faced more serious charges if anything worse had happened to those stung.

Why the hostility?
They were acting as armed thugs for a landlord?
