Authorities have filed federal charges against a Phoenix woman accused of throwing a shoe on stage while Hillary Rodham Clinton gave a convention speech. The trespassing and violence charges lodged Sunday against Alison Michelle Ernst in U.S. District Court in Las Vegas come as local prosecutors consider a misdemeanor disorderly conduct charge in state court. Ernst didnt respond to a phone message Monday, and it isnt clear if she has a lawyer. The 36-year-old faces a June 24 court date on the local charge, which could get her six months in county jail stemming from the incident Thursday. A court date in the federal case wasnt immediately set. Clinton wasnt struck by the shoe. She continued her speech to a recycling industry conference at the Mandalay Bay resort.
