Somali refugee and director of the Equitable Development Division of Seattle's Office of Planning & Community Development announces that she is running for the King County Council in the Seattle area.
On Jan. 12, 2010, Gardheere boarded a school bus that was in process of transporting children to the Chinook Middle School.
Gardheere demanded the driver tell his dispatcher "that a national security incident was going on”
Gardheere, who is a Somali immigrant, began yelling at the children about America’s relationship with her home country, Somalia.
The school bus driver instructed Gardheere to exit the vehicle, but she retaliated by saying that she may have a bomb and a gun.
When students attempted to escape out the back of the bus, she called them "white cowards" and told them they would be responsible if something happened to their classmates. Several students believed she had a weapon of some kind and many feared for their lives.
The political candidate was eventually arrested and charged with multiple felonies but via plea deal Gardheere only ended up pleading guilty to misdemeanors 😉🤝😉
