“It concerns me deeply that we are still seeing an upward trend in our state and we are rushing to reopen businesses,” Bottoms told CBS News on April 22, adding, “What I’ve said is I hope the governor is right and I’m wrong, because if he’s wrong more people will die.” “People who respect peaceful and powerful protests are doing it during the day, before curfew, and the people who want to wreak havoc, the cowards who want to wreak havoc, are coming out under the cover of darkness,” Bottoms told Yahoo News in an interview last month.
