As Gossip Cop reported, George Clooney was arrested on Friday for civil disobedience in front of the Sudanese embassy in Washington, D.C.
The movie star and 17 other protesters – including his father Nick – were taken into custody for demanding action against Sudan’s president, Omar al-Bashir, whom they accuse of triggering a humanitarian crisis.
After posting $100 bail, the Clooneys gave a press conference to discuss their efforts to bring attention to the bombing of civilians and other horrors underway in the African nation.
