Gov. Nixon Calls For ‘Vigorous Prosecution’ Of Darren Wilson
The Daily Caller ^ | 8-20-2014 | Chuck Ross

Posted on 08/20/2014 5:08:39 AM PDT by servo1969

Not content with a regular prosecution or a vigorous investigation, Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon said he hopes that Ferguson, Missouri, police officer Darren Wilson will receive a “vigorous prosecution” in the shooting death of Michael Brown on Aug. 9.

“A vigorous prosecution must now be pursued,” Nixon said in a five minute video address posted to his website Tuesday.

“The democratically elected St. Louis county prosecutor and the attorney general of the United States each have a job to do,” said Nixon, a Democrat.

“Their obligation to achieve justice in the shooting death of Michael Brown must be carried out thoroughly, promptly, and correctly,” said Nixon of investigators.

Wow, stupid people make stupid statements.

How nice to know that the moron nixon has already decided the the officer is guilty without having all the facts, but then again he is a dumb-o-crat and the facts, if they are not what he decided, are meaningless.

Shades of the Duke Boys and Zimmerman all rolled into one.

How many blacks killed blacks in Chicago this year?

YUP.
Doesn’t matter that the cop is injured, he’s “Obviously” a “hate driven raaaaaaacist” who they must crucify...
They failed to get their martyr with Trayvon, so they’ll try to manufacture one out of Mikey here.
Video could show up of Mikey raping a nun while eating a kitten alive, and they wouldn’t bat an eye.

This era will be seen as the “Anything for Votes” era later with the most corrupt politicians to have ever existed in U.S. history if the earth is still around after all this...

I'd go to some country that does not have an extradition treaty with the U.S. and begin a new life.

West Sahara, Kazakhstan, North Korea, ...

Good luck with that!

I remember when Richard Nixon got a lot of flak from the left when he said Charles Manson was obviously guilty. This Nixon will be lauded by the left for pushing prosecutors to proceed with what looks like a weak case.

I predict that Sharpton and The Dream Team will say that the D.A. Cut a deal with Johnson to tell a lie for a reduced sentence. Tell me I’m wrong. You know how these guys roll...

Yep...any lawyer worth his salt can now argue that “A vigorous prosecution must now be pursued” is prejudicial. Get the popcorn.

The Governor just guaranteed himself a trip to court.

Prosecution or persecution? And this disgraceful governor was the former attorney general, so ignorance of the law is not an excuse.
