Suspect Charged in Death of ‘Anarchist’ Baker in Robbery Gone Wrong as Victim’s Family Urges no Jail Time

A 19-year-old San Francisco man has been charged in the death of a popular baker who was dragged by a getaway car chasing after armed robbers — and the woke activist’s family has urged authorities not to jail her two assailants because it goes against her social justice beliefs.

SNIP

“As a long-time social movement activist and anarchist, Jen did not believe in state violence, carceral punishment or incarceration as an effective or just solution to social violence and inequity,” her loved ones wrote on a GoFundMe page after the brutal crime. Her family is “committed to pursuing all available alternatives to traditional prosecution, such as restorative justice,” the post said.

“We know Jen would not want to continue the cycle of harm by bringing state-sanctioned violence to those involved in her death or to other members of Oakland’s rich community,” the family added.

Me too. I feel like I have been deposited in a parallel universe where some things look the same, but...some very key and important things are completely whacked out.

Will the family take responsibility for any further crimes committed?

How about a GoFundMe page for sending the killers to a vacation in Hawaii? And when they get back, they'll burn the bakery to the ground?

I think it was a gut reaction on her part and she didn’t have time to think through her social justice leanings. She would probably blame her death on residual conservative thoughts from her past or whatever so ultimately it the fault of the right and Trump. That’s how they think I think.

How did this “anarchist” believe that reparations should be collected and then disbursed?

What happens when the “justice system” fails, or simply refuses to do its job?

We’re past that point in many jurisdictions.

Ok, they can stand as surety to the future victims of this criminal. Not just financially but with their bodies.

Anything he does to his victims will be done to them, four fold.

Step right up ladies and gents and sign on the dotted line. This is a one time offer.

It won't be pretty.

Folks forget that the legal system prevents vigilantes, private revenge, and blood feuds.

Certain jurisdictions are going to have to learn that all over again.

the mindset of these people is beyond my comprehension.

The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false, in order that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. —2 Thessalonians 2:9-12
The victim “couldn't handle the truth”, dear FRiend.
