Art Laffin’s participant report individually names Lenore Yarger among seven people arrested at the Pentagon on December 28, 2017, after trying to deliver the nuclear-weapons prohibition treaty and refusing orders to leave a restricted checkpoint. They were taken to the Pentagon Police center, charged with disobeying a lawful order and released. The report does not individually establish jail admission or a precise physical release day; the announced February 1 hearing is not a verdict or imposed sentence.
