I don't know why you'd attribute this to politics.

If you read the story, there's no getting around this damning fact: One of the alleged perpetrators cooperated with police and testified against the other one for a crime that neither one of them apparently committed.

Not "apparently", and who do you think coerced that cooperation and why?

That happens more often than not, even when the accused has done nothing to warrant an arrest.

Many people don’t have the means to fight the state and will often agree to take a plea because of their inability to fight, because they are up against a prosecutor with an unlimited ability to prosecute.

Indeed something stinks.. and it starts top down.. from Holder’s office..

Maybe they are innocent, MAYBE NOT..
The Justice Department is not really INTO justice..

Same could be said for LITERALLY All Executive Branch Agency’s..
AND I’m not all that confident of Congressional oversight either..

THEN..... you got you’re Supreme’s with the Cretin John Roberts...
Oh! the Federal Buttocks of Investigation has been “Packed” as well...

Hard to know what to believe... WHICH seems to be according to plan... from the White Hut..
Tribal America is well and thriving..

And just how did that happen? It happened because one or both of them were manipulated by the police to say something that wasn't true, but enabled the police and the prosecutor to bring a charge designed to convict innocents.

I don't consider that to be justice, it is politics masquerading as justice. Thanks for helping to make my point.

And the PUBLIC SERVANTS probably KNEW that they were innocent, or that the case against them was pathetic but went for the easy win and hashmark for politickin’-n-campaignin’.

Corruption it is. The police lied to get false convictions. All lies are the work of Satan period. Also it is political because re-elections are often campaigned with conviction rates for DA’s.

Political expedience?

****
Then, last year, the right shred of evidence came along in the form of a DNA sample from
a rape-murder committed in 1999.

It matched DNA found under the fingernails of Yarbough’s mother, indicating that
the same killer probably committed both crimes. In 1999, Yarbough and Wilson were
in prison and couldn’t have committed the second murder.

**********

Apparently the DNA couldn’t and didn’t matched either of the convicted but yet they were found guilty.

The DA is looking at some other convictions apparently for some reason.

-—Thompson came into office in January with promises to restore justice to the wrongfully
convicted. This case is part of a review of Brooklyn killings from the 1980s and early 1990s.—
