U.S. Marine Corps reservists Alejandro Godinez and Luis Torres were touring historical landmarks in Philadelphia on November 17, 2018, when they were attacked by suspects Thomas Massey and Tom Keenan near the controversial “We the People” rally in Old City. The Marines testified that they had no understanding of the rally and were in town with their chopper unit to attend a Marine Ball later that evening.
According to court documents, suspect Tom Keenan approached the two with ten different Antifa members and asked the Marines if they were “Proud,” referring to the Proud Boys. Not understanding what that question meant, Torres answered, “We are Marines.” They were then mobbed by Antifa and were called “Nazis” and “White supremacists” while they were maced, punched, and kicked by the group.

Godinez testified that during the attack, he yelled out, “I’m not a White supremacist, I’m Mexican,” in which the group then started using racial slurs towards Godinez and Torres like “spic" and “wetback,” court documents reveal. Godinez was maced at least six times, kicked in the ribs, and hit in the head by members of the group who chanted “f*ck him up” throughout the brutal beating.
According to court records, Torres testified that Massey punched him “full force” repeatedly as he was attempting to shield his face with his arms to protect himself.
