A USA TODAY reporter asked Cranston about the name outside a court hearing for the case last year. Asked if Eva was her real name, Cranston stated Yes, didnt you see my press pass?
My name is Eva Knott, she continued.
Knotts press pass was revoked by the San Diego Police Department in October. (While a press pass is not required in California to attend court hearings, it can be helpful to access areas from which the public have been prohibited.)

HFS! EVERYBODY needs to read this. The article goes on to say:

The case is extraordinary not just because prosecutors chose only to charge one side involved in the days violence but also because it seeks to define Antifa as a criminal enterprise that uses force, fear, and violence to further their interests and suppress the interests of others, according to the district attorneys office.
In recent years, Antifa has been portrayed by far-right-wing media, commentators and conspiracy theorists as a shadowy bogeyman intent on destroying America. Experts told USA TODAY that, if successful, the San Diego case could create a powerful precedent for prosecutors across the country especially prosecutors looking to make a name for themselves with conservatives aligned with Trump.
