A Multnomah County Circuit Court judge on Friday sentenced a well-known Portland-area street brawler to an additional 2 years in prison for his role in a violent melee outside an abandoned Kmart in east Portland in 2021.

Tusitala “Tiny” Toese already faced a mandatory minimum sentence of five years and 10 months in prison after he was convicted in March of 10 charges – including two counts of second-degree assault and riot – for egging on his fellow Proud Boys during a street battle with left-wing protesters on Northeast 122nd Avenue.


Toese was one of three men, all known as right-wing activists, originally charged in the Parkrose neighborhood clash. Miles Farrow, of Oregon City, pled guilty as part of a plea deal and was sentenced to probation. Charges were dropped against the other man but may be reinstated in the future, Senior Deputy District Attorney Nathan Vasquez said in court Friday.

Judge Amy Baggio sentenced Toese to the additional 25 months for the riot conviction, to be served back-to-back with the mandatory 70-month sentence for second-degree assault. The additional sentence could be reduced by up to five months if Toese is credited for good behavior while incarcerated.
