Col. Christopher Hoffman, 51, faces charges of operating a vehicle<b> <\/b>under the influence of liquor, negligent operation of a motor vehicle, possession of an open container of alcohol in a motor vehicle and disorderly conduct, Falmouth police Lt. Michael Simoneau told the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capecodtimes.com\/story\/news\/2022\/10\/19\/joint-base-guard-tour-bus-migrant-mistake-summons-charges-clerk-magistrate\/10532185002\/\" target=\"_blank\">Cape Cod Times<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Information concerning the date of the hearing has not been given, but the charges against Hoffman will be heard in a private clerk magistrate\u2019s office, Simoneau said. Under Massachusetts state law, magistrate hearings and connected records are not public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In September, Hoffman followed a bus carrying senior citizens on a trip to Martha\u2019s Vineyard for nearly 10 miles after assuming South American migrants were on board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The incident came just days after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis flew almost 50 Venezuelan migrants to the vacation spot under false pretenses. More than 100 National Guard troops were activated in response to DeSantis\u2019s move and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2022\/09\/22\/migrants-in-marthas-vineyard-given-shelter-at-joint-base-cape-cod\/\" target=\"_blank\">migrants were given shelter on Joint Base Cape Cod<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hoffman followed the bus after he saw a Florida sticker on it. He was upset thinking more migrants were coming to the area, Falmouth Police Department Det. Christopher Bartolomei said after the incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHe spoke about a friend that he could not get over from Afghanistan and he got emotional about this and was mad that the migrants were here and not his friend,\u201d the detective reported. The Cape Cod Times reported that Hoffman deployed to Afghanistan in 2010 and 2011.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The incident terrified everyone on the bus, driver Michael Vaughn told the Cape Cod Times last month.<b> <\/b>Hoffman also harassed hotel staff once the bus made it to Admiralty Inn &amp; Suites, according to hotel staff who spoke with the Cape Cod Times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The incident was live-streamed to Hoffman\u2019s Facebook page, but that video has since been taken down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe criminal charges against this service member are very serious,\u201d Massachusetts Guard officials said in an unsigned email in response to an Army Times query about the latest developments in Hoffman\u2019s case. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cDue to the civilian nature of these alleged crimes, the civilian criminal justice system holds jurisdiction over this matter and it is anticipated that Christopher Hoffman will face legal proceedings in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts,\u201d the email reads. \u201cOnce the civilian proceedings are complete, the Massachusetts National Guard will take appropriate action.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hoffman followed the bust after he saw a Florida sticker on
