Russell Orlando Courtier, 38, pleaded not guilty Tuesday to charges of irst- and second-degree intimidation in the death of Larnell Malik Bruce, court documents say. Colleen Hunt, 35, who was in the passenger seat, pleaded not guilty to a charge of irst-degree intimidation. Under Oregon law, a charge of intimi- dation means the defendants are accused of acting based on their perception of the victim’s race, color, religion or disability. The two had previously pleaded not guilty to a charge of murder in the death of 19-year-old Bruce, of Vancouver, Washington. Last month, The Portland Mercury raised questions about Courtier’s possible afiliation with a white supremacist group after inding pictures on his Face- book page that show him with a tattoo Hunt Courtier of “EK,” which stands for European Kindred. At the time, authorities had not charged him or Hunt with a hate crime, but were investigating. Gresham police said Tuesday the defendants’ “clear ties” to a white supremacist gang were initially not enough to charge them with a hate crime. The Mercury reported that Courtier became involved in the group while serving a sentence at Eastern Oregon Correctional Institution in Pendleton. “Anything like this, we have to be very careful in looking at motive before we just assume something that may seem very clear to other people,” said Oficer John Rasmussen, a spokesman for the Gresham police. “We have to be sure to tie it in correctly to where it could with- stand a court trial.” Additional investigation, including Corrections The Pendleton Safeway store will not be hosting the Round-Up and Happy Canyon Hall of Fame barbecue Thursday.

Attorneys for Courtier and Hunt did not return phone calls Tuesday. According to court documents, Bruce and Courtier got into an argument that turned physical outside a Gresham 7-Eleven on Aug. 10. Bruce was armed with a machete. It still isn’t clear what the two were ighting about, but moments later Courtier jumped in his 1991 Jeep Wrangler and chased down Bruce as the teen ducked and wove through the parking lot on foot, according to an afidavit for probable cause. Surveillance video shows the Jeep turning around rapidly and accelerating toward Bruce as he tries to lee. The video did not capture the moment Bruce was struck, the afidavit said, but a responding oficer found him unconscious on the ground with blood streaming from his head and ears. The oficer also spotted a red Jeep speeding away. Hunt shouted “Get him, baby, get him” during the ight, but has denied any involvement in Bruce’s death, according to court papers.

Kate Brown has received a $250,000 campaign contribution from New York billionaire Michael Bloomberg. The Register-Guard reports that Bloomberg’s donation marks the largest single contribution she has received in recent years. The donation comes after Brown, a Democrat, publicly announced support for three pieces of gun control legislation, including a ban of high-capacity ammunition magazines, which the Legislature will consider in 2017. Bloomberg has a history of donating to pro-gun control candidates. At her mid-summer press conference in Portland, Brown said she hopes to get the state legislature to take steps to curb gun violence. Earlier this year, Bloomberg made a $250,000 contribution to state Rep. Val Hoyle, a Eugene Democrat, in her unsuccessful run for secretary of state. At the time, a Bloomberg spokesman said the donation was the result of Hoyle’s “leadership” in helping to pass a 2015 expansion on gun sale background checks in Oregon. Bloomberg’s contribution brings Brown’s total fundraising for the election cycle to $3.7 million. Republican challenger Bud Pierce has raised $2.6 million this election cycle. Grand Ronde appeals ruling to allow casino SALEM (AP) — Oregon’s Grand Ronde tribe is appealing a decision to allow the Cowlitz tribe to build a casino in La Center, Washington, to the U.S. Supreme Court. The Statesman Journal reports that the Grand Ronde tribe has decided to appeal the decision to the federal high court after the U.S. Circuit Court of appeals denied its request on July 29. Tribal members were informed of the iling decision at an Aug. 31 council meeting. The tribe is contesting a lower court’s ruling to allow the Cowlitz tribe to establish a reservation in Clark County, Washington. The Cowlitz tribe plans to build a 368,000-square-foot casino there. The Grand Ronde tribe estimates it will lose 41 percent of its revenue if the Cowlitz tribe’s Ilani casino is permitted to open.
