Bynes told reporters that members of the Lost Voices beat up a fellow protester, Chris Schaefer, 24, after accusing him of sending out unauthorized video of the meeting.

Schaefer was hospitalized.

The Lost Voices, based in an office building in the heart of the West Florissant Avenue protest zone in Ferguson, have denied involvement in the attack.

However, Bynes said that, when she next attended a protest in Ferguson on Nov. 10, about 25 members of the Lost Voices surrounded and threatened her over her comments to reporters.

“It was frightening. I was prepared to get hit in the head at any moment,” she said.

Bynes said she left the protest out of fear for her safety.

“What’s most upsetting is that there were enough other protesters who, if they had acted, could have stood up to the Lost Voices,” she said.

“Instead, they were frozen with fear.

“If you don’t have the courage to stand up and call out the bad elements in our group, how can you demand that good cops call out the bad cops amongst themselves?” she asked.
