Sunny Isles Beach City Commission candidate arrested for assaulting teenagers
A candidate for the Sunny Isles Beach City Commission, Georg Badmesser, made headlines after being arrested for assaulting two teenagers at a campaign event. The incident, which was caught on camera, took place at a restaurant in Sunny Isles where Badmesser was hosting a campaign event.
Video footage shows shocking behavior
Surveillance footage from the day of the incident clearly shows Badmesser choking one teenager and slapping another. The video also captured the moment when he was dragged away in handcuffs by authorities. One of the teenagers who was attacked recounted the experience to Local 10, stating, "When he was choking my friend, he let go of my friend and then he slapped me."
Badmesser’s first appearance at City Council meeting
Despite the controversy surrounding him, Badmesser attended the Sunny Isles Beach City Council meeting for the first time since his arrest.

It remains unclear what his intentions were for attending the meeting as a resident.
In conclusion, Badmesser’s actions have raised serious concerns among residents of Sunny Isles Beach. It is crucial for political candidates to uphold ethical behavior and set a positive example for the community.
