I think the bigger issue may be that some of the media may have been clued into the fact that something was going to happen in 4th St at that particular time.

Some of the camera shots and film footage would have been very hard to capture on the spur of the moment.

And, still, no one knows, or appears to care, why the state police chopper went down.

>I read where the girl who died succumbed to a heart attack, and not from being hit by the car, if she was hit by the car.

She was hit by other people knocked out of the way of the car. She was very overweight, smoked and died from a heart attack triggered by the trauma. It’s still at least manslaughter against the driver.

It’s probably manslaughter against the driver if his car wasn’t attacked. If that happened, acquittal seems likely.

And, I have yet to hear anyone question why the police were operating a chopper. Unnecessarily endangering officers?

How about the others injured in the cruel mayhem? how many have life changing injuries?

Investigate McAuliffe’s participation in setting up the conflict.

Thanks for posting this, it needed to be posted again.
For one simple reason: I didn’t see it yesterday.

The story needs to be kept alive. I believe McAwfull is guilty. An investigation is called for.

What decisions did he make for the command center regarding crowd control (or crowd management)? What knowledge does he have, or what did he do to promote a conflict? What does he know about how the two “sides” were transported to the event? Did he have a role in that transportation? Does he know who did have a role in transporting the two sides to the city that day?

By the felony murder rule McAuliffe should be charged for all three deaths that occurred that day.

Conservatives probably not welcome. Only perverts and evil doers.

Don’t know. But I think the tiki torch marchers were only a subset of the crowd that came to Lee Park the next day to protest the removal of the statue.

And carrying the torches was provocative, but not an act of violence unto itself.
