I wish WPXI the best of luck in finding out why Magistrate Judge Leah Williams Duncan dropped so many charges of violent crime that had been filed against this suspect in Pittsburgh. Was he innocent? Or was there some other reason?

On February 9, 2023, WPXI, the Pittsburgh affiliate of NBC News, published this this article, which is called, “Man linked to multiple violent crimes across Pittsburgh.”

The article includes the following text. I am redacting the name of the suspect in case he is innocent:

“Channel 11 dug into his background and determined that he is facing charges in other violent and armed attacks on people in Pittsburgh.”

“(Name redacted) has been named as a suspect in a case from Nov. of 2022, wherein a Jitney driver was threatened and forced to flee a traffic stop…”

“(Name redacted) has also been named as a suspect in a violent home invasion and robbery reported in July of 2022 on Tacoma Street. In that case, court documents claim three suspects held a woman and her young children at gunpoint.”

“… records show that Magistrate Judge Leah Williams Duncan last month dismissed all of the charges against (name redacted) in both cases. Channel 11 contacted Judge Duncan’s court to ask why that decision was made. At the time this article was published, we had not received a response.”

This WPXI article is primarily about one very recent case. The article says that last month, Magistrate Judge Leah Williams Duncan dropped the charges against this suspect in two other, earlier cases. WPXI says it asked Judge Duncan’s office why she dropped the charges, but there was no response. I hope WPXI will report those reasons in the future. If the guy was innocent, the public should know. If the charges were dropped for some other reason, the public should know what those reasons were. I wish WPXI the best of luck in finding out this information.

The judge is a Black female so I’ll guess 13 inches.

If an NBC affiliate is reporting on this you can bet it’s not for a reason that anything to do with public safety.

Because Soros told her to keep violent people on the streets.

“Magistrate Judge Leah Williams Duncan” was voted into office. Pittsburgh is a majority white city with a long history of stupid white unionists voting for socialists. “You have to give to get”.
