“if Mosby’s case fails, if Baltimore will burn to the ground. “
What touched off the LA Riots was the acquittal of the cops involved. They had been way overcharged and the jury just didn’t think it was warranted. Had tehy been charged with assault they probably would have been convicted, and no riot.
Now, if you WANT to follow a recipe for riots and flames, you’d follow the one that led to LA burning. I wonder if that’s what she’s cooking up here, is the release before trial, or acquittal in a trial. With the right chanting from the media and a few statements from Obama, it would make a big riot.
And if these dysfunctional losers in the streets don’t get the verdict they want, watch out. The rioting will be way worse.
Mob rule.....fast becoming commonplace in Obama’s America.
From what I have seen and heard of Baltimore if it burned to the ground America would not lose much.
Grand Juries take their business pretty seriously for the most part. If there’s nothing there, and I don’t see any clear proof of illegality, then this will end like the Brown case. No charges. or minor ones.
I do not think she knows her charges are largely baseless. She really believes in the “Civil Rights” Rhetoric and that fact coupled with a basic stupidity will run up against reality.
She doesn't know these charges will fail. She isn't that smart. I'm sure she still believes she is going to become some sort of civil rights hero.
I was willing to give her the benefit of the doubt in early days... a "wait and see" approach. But as more information comes to light, it is clear that she, like the mayor, is in over her head.
Obviously, something went wrong during the arrest... not necessarily criminal... but we will never know what it was. I think she's blown it right out of the gate.
Oh well...that explains all the adult illiteracy there.....from Cong Cummings, the Police commissioner, the Prosecutor, her councilman hubby, the Mayor, the Chief of Police...... who all blamed the cops for the looting and burning.....
.....and unless Baltimore minorities are given brand new Cadillacs, govt credit cards, free liquor and meals at top restaurants......nothing will change.
GMTA. See my post immedately after yours.
We basically agree.
yeah.......the coroner apparently did not venture a guess on that as it’s not normally his job.
What he said was homicide, which only means that it was not suicide or natural causes, in his opinion.
I would venture a guess that he made up his mind as to the homicide when he became convinced that because of the lack of seatbelt restraints, the death was caused by a broken neck/back due to being thrown against the side of the van while being transported.
My understanding is that this would be difficult but not impossible to occur, because there was very little room in the back of the van to have gained enough momentum to accomplish the severity of the injury.
That coupled with the witness info about the guy throwing himself about in the van, leads me to believe that the victim may have contributed greatly to his own injury.
This the thing I feared most. Stupid dweebs from the public education system coming into positions of power.
So much of what is reported changes from day to day. The witness reportedly recanted. This is a situation that has a pox on a multitude of houses.
I heard the CVS store was stripped clean before being burned. About the only this left was father’s day cards.
First the verdict......then the trial.
Not only has Baltimore jumped the shark...
...they also jumped through the magic mirror.
I agree. not gonna be an easy GJ case.
more riots when the cops get off.
The Mayor ordered the police to go to CVS only AFTER it started burning. She didn't want any of the looters or arsonists to get hurt after the fire started. But what about teens getting their hands on illegal and dangerous prescription drugs DURING the looting? NO PROBLEM!
Agreed. My comment was directed more to the “why did they rush to make an arrest”?
Are you kidding? She’s just doing what Team Odungo orders her to do.. Her overcharging ASSURES more riots, and they hope next time a nationwide race war. They only hope CVS rebuilds their store before THAT happens. More goodies! And let’s see how ‘Jade Helm’ plays into this. There could be a master plan here involving many players.
