“And Noor will not be prosecuted for anything if the Muslim politicians and supporters in Minneapolis have their way. Sharia law endorses what Noor did.”

My guess is that Noor will be charged and prosecuted and that case will be before a Minnesota state court and not a Sharia court.

“By contrast, a White cop who shot an innocent Black woman under similar conditions would already have been fired and arrested. And the riots would have already started.”

It’s just been a week, and the fastest I’ve recall a cop being fired after a bad shoot was Michael Slager who was fired a little less than a week after a questionable shooting.

Give it time, the firing of Noor is not relevant, the investigation and likely prosecution are relevant.

And if the defense is at all competent, they will try to get a number of Muslims on the jury. Noor will certainly walk in that event.

But the Minneapolis political authorities badly want this case to go away. The longer the prosecution takes to make the indictment, the better the chances that will happen.

How long do you think that witness to the event will last before he is threatened by local Muslims and clams up. Or is killed by a "lone-wolf" assassin? Or by another police officer while "being uncooperative" and "assaulting an officer"?

I would like to believe your assessment that a careful DA is making a diligent case for prosecution and that will take more time that people would like.

But I have seen too many inflammatory political cases where the prosecution drags their feet, places a gag order on the whole proceeding, and then quietly plea-bargains an abominable felony down to a minor misdemeanor with trivial penalties after enough time has passed for things to quiet down.

The Muslim rape case in Idaho stands as a recent example.

This case has all the earmarks to be another example. The prosecution had better move quickly and carefully.
