The thug who stomped on a Moveon.org member’s head at the Kentucky U.S. Senate debate last night has been identified by the Lexington Police Department:

The Lexington Division of Police has identified a suspect in connection to the October 25, 2010 assault of a woman at 600 Cooper Drive…

Officers responded to the scene of the assault and made contact with the victim. She identified herself as a member of MoveOn.org and stated she was assaulted while attempting to take a picture with candidate Rand Paul. Division of Police patrol officers took an assault report and forwarded the case to the Division of Police Bureau of Investigation.

Today, October 26, 2010, detectives identified the suspect, involved in the assault, as Tim Profitt. Mr. Profitt is currently being served with a criminal summons ordering him to appear before a Fayette County District Court Judge.

Profitt is an unpaid official for the Paul campaign:

Tim Profitt from Paris, Kentucky is the Rand Paul for Senate Bourbon County coordinator and is being sought as the head stomper by the Lexington police. In a statement sent to the Associated Press, Profitt has admitted placing his shoe firmly on the face of a Lauren Valle outside a Senate debate on Monday night, but insisted that the camera angle of the footage that captured the alteration made the scuffle look worse than it was. The fact that Profitt is an official coordinator of the Rand Paul campaign opens Paul to potential civil liabilities.

Profitt was well known to the Paul campaign and touted the endorsement of Tim Profitt at the bottom of an ad they had taken out in a Bourbon County paper.

The identity of the man who shoved Valle to the ground has not been confirmed but a source inside the Kentucky tea party mob organization anonymously reports that he is Mike Pezzano, a member of the Lexington Ron/Rand Paul Meetup Group.
