Tense library meeting in Ozark leads to undercover cop confrontation with LGBTQ speaker
A tense meeting at an Ozark library in Alabama, where residents debated moving LGBTQ+ books to the adult section, spilled into the parking lot when an undercover cop confronted a bisexual speaker. The speaker, Julia Carroll, had just delivered an emotional plea when the cop approached her aggressively. Carroll's boyfriend, Eric Braswell, intervened, and the situation escalated. The cop refused to leave, leading to a heated exchange. Eventually, a police commander de-escalated the situation, and all parties left the parking lot.
