The steep bonds were for the trio's alleged actions during the violent protests, including one of them being accused of jumping on a police vehicle. Wilson is accused of striking an officer, the Atlanta Journal Constitution reports.

Castillenti was affiliateed with the group CopWatch East Atlanta, an organization that monitors police activity, WAGA-TV reports.

The vigil, put together by the Pride Alliance of Georgia Tech and the GT Progressive Student Alliance, began peaceful but the university's president said "outside agitators" that did not attend the school caused chaos, including the burning of a police car.

Wilson is charged with three counts of criminal trespass (misdemeanor), and two counts of aggravated assault against an officer (felony).

Castillenti is charged with willful obstruction of a law officer by use of threats or violence, and aggravated assault on an officer of court while officer is engage or account of performance. She is the only one of the trio that is a student, according to news reports.

Monden was identified as Andrew Xavier Monden by the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office. Monden is charged interference with government property, and inciting to rioting (misdemeanor).
