I hate to be the one to rain – or even sprinkle – all over the merry Tim Kaine parade.
But someone has to.
It’s time to shake off the he’s-so-much-nicer-than-Hillary-and-he-speaks-Spanish euphoria to ask Kaine to explain his conduct during his final days in Virginia’s governor’s mansion.
The issue concerns a convicted murderer serving life in prison and Kaine’s last-minute move to quietly spring him.
We’re going to talk about Jens Soering today.
Members of the national press corps ought to be asking Kaine about the Soering matter every day – at least until the veep hopeful from Virginia comes up with a sensible explanation for why he tried to set this man free.

Thank the LORD.
It’s hard enough getting victims justice, we don’t need these bleeding hearts releasing them.
We have issue with the RINO Tennessee Gov who won’t sign death warrants.
Ashley Nichole ‘Nikki’ Read (8yrs old, 67 lbs) March 16, 1990

Nikki was beaten, RAPED, strangled with her own shoelaces, wrapped in a green blanket, which was then tied, by David Keen, he dumped her body into the river off the old Auction Street Boat Dock in Memphis, TN. She drowned to death. Nikki was alive as Keen RAPED her. DNA proved he did and he eventually confessed to the crime. 2 juries, up held the Death Sentence. All State and Federals Appeals are done. Yet he still sits on Tennessee Death Row because Tennessee’s RINO governor won’t sign the Death Warrant for this Child Rapist/Killer.
It’s 2016 Nikki’s mother is still waiting for JUSTICE!

The more I read about Kaine, the more he strikes me as a clinton clone.
1990-2016 AND I thought CA was bad....
Where is the best link to get the facts on this case? I read Wiki and it is spotty.
I’d still like an answer as to why he closed the interstate rest stops and limited DMV hours blaming budget issues when McDonnell was able to do a 180 on both as soon as he got in. Even McAuliffe hasn’t really done anything like that yet.
There’s one thing about Kaine that isn’t getting much airplay....yet. When he ran for the governor’s office he campaigned as a conservative, touting his pro-life credentials, a strong pro 2nd amendment stance, and a sense of fiscal conservatism.
There are still artifacts from his campaign on the net.
Why did Hellery select such a decidedly non-progressive “old white guy” to be her veep and why aren’t these fact being broadcast?
This Soering case is another ghost that (I hope) will haunt Kaine all the way through his flustercuck campaign with the hildebeast.

Thanks
It’s a variant of the Washington Monument syndrome. When you face the threat of budget cuts, close down or cut back the most visible and popular or necessary public services.
Per the New Yorker:
Recently, a curious political drama erupted in the wake of this old case. Soering has long held that he’s innocent. Like Haysom, he has never been paroled. Seeking avenues of redress in the late two-thousands, he found another possible option. An obscure agreement of the Council of Europe meant that he could be repatriated to Germany, with the approval of Germany and Virginia. Because Soering had already served the maximum German prison time for his conviction and record, this repatriation could allow for his release on European soil.
Tim Kaine, who was the governor of Virginia at the time, balked. He told Soering’s associates that he’d sign off only if additional conditions were met. Instead of a standard repatriation deal, which could mean Soering’s release in Germany, this would have to be a repatriative prison transfer, in which he was moved from a cell in the U.S. to a cell in Germany. Soering would need to stay behind German bars for at least two more years, regardless of the German sentencing norms. When these requirements were met, six years ago, Kaine authorized Soering’s repatriation. Four days later, a new governor, Robert McDonnell, took office, and he quickly repealed Kaine’s approval. Terry McAuliffe, who succeeded the now-disgraced McDonnell, is in a position to repeal the repeal, allowing Kaine’s original order to go through.
AND
Legally speaking, Soering’s case was a mess of exceptions and irregularities—starting from the moment when he, as a German citizen in British custody for a British crime, was interrogated by American officials without a warrant (and without a lawyer), confessing to the murders in a liminal zone of jurisdiction and national rights. Whether he would even be extradited into Virginia’s criminal-justice system was less than certain for a couple of years. Once there, he was tried by a judge who declined to recuse himself despite having attended a party for the victims and announcing a theory of the case before the trial.
They try and blame lack of the proper drugs, any Veterinarian has enough painless drugs to put down a horse or cow, which weighs much more than a man. Then all those assisted suicide drugs could be used. No they are afraid of aclu law suits.

We just don’t have all the ‘goodies’ CA has. They still have their own Sat dish, easy chairs, oil painting lessons, education, medical, lawyers, radios, and some jewelry. Females have curling irons, etc.
