Three Christians were arrested in Moscow, Idaho for participating in an outdoor worship service. Was the arrest warranted?

The Latah County commission candidate Gabe Rench, who is also one of the co-hosts of “CrossPolitic” a conservative politics show, was one of three who were arrested by police during a “Psalm sing” event that took place in a city parking lot, the Moscow-Pullman Daily News reports.

“You guys should not be doing this,” Rench said while he was being escorted away in handcuffs. “Doing this kind of crap for the mayor, this is embarrassing.”

According to other reports, two others were arrested and charged for resisting and obstruction. While Rench was arrested, he was not charged.

During the event, five people were cited by police for being in violation of Moscow’s mask mandate, Faith Wire reports. They were also cited for violating social distancing orders during the coronavirus pandemic.

Rench later told officers, “You guys are stronger than this.”

The conservative host gave more detail about the incident in a recent episode of his show.
