Here's your reminder that the judges are out of control:

The Vigilant Fox 🦊 @VigilantFox A 19-year-old charged with stabbing a man in Pittsburgh so badly his intestines were hanging out was released the SAME DAY without posting a dime.
Eight days later, he’s the prime suspect in ANOTHER stabbing.
District Judge Dan Butler let Delvin Dobbins walk on a non-monetary bond. Just a promise to show up to court.
Pittsburgh Police Chief Jason Lando couldn’t believe he was out.
“How can that be? I mean, he just stabbed someone in the stomach a week ago.”
And it’s happened before.
Two years earlier, Dobbins was let go after a burglary arrest because the juvenile detention center had closed. Two months later, he was charged with SHOOTING a convenience store clerk.
Two stabbings and a shooting. The man keeps racking up victims because the judge keeps SETTING HIM LOOSE!

The judge, probably:
"Oh, you are accused of severing a man's intestines so that his bowels protruded from his body? And you have prior charges for burglary and shooting a store clerk while he was taking out the trash?? I see no problem here. You are free to go!"
More from TribLIVE about the suspect's argument with his coworker last Thursday on the Martin Luther King Jr. busway:
The two had both worked at the Home Depot in East Liberty before Dobbins was fired weeks earlier after threatening the man during a dispute over a female coworker, the complaint said.
Dobbins had reportedly threatened to 'fold him like an armadillo,' according to the complaint.
Pittsburgh police identified Dobbins from his clothing, photos and prior contacts with him, the complaint said.
For Thursday's incident, he is also charged with aggravated assault, possessing an instrument of crime and recklessly endangering another person.
You will be happy to know that the suspect has been arrested and denied bail.
Finally.
Dobbins was denied bail after his Sunday arrest and remains in the Allegheny County Jail.
Anyone want to take bets on when they release this guy again?
Six months? A year?

When are women going to stop voting for more rapists and murderers on the street?
If he could only injure judges, I wouldn’t mind him being released with his knife.
Indict the judge as an accessory before the fact.
I’ve got that old fatiguey feeling again...
Shoot first arrest later
Death penalty for the perp and the pervert judge.
He has been arrested for violent crimes beginning two years ago but there is no mention of him ever being prosecuted. He’s been charged but why has he never been tried?
Judges have to be held accountable for their decisions when they release hardened criminals.
Never, they are women. They shouldn’t be allowed to vote, period!
public hangings WILL become common again in the USA
leftist/marxist corruption of “civil rights” is becoming overt, Americans increasingly can’t be propagandized on this, and America’s urban areas being dirty, violent sh**holes will become an overriding political issue.
Even in democrat cities being caught for enough stabbings and murders will eventually get you in trouble.
When Oprah and other Stars TELL THEM TO! They are all SHEEP!
There needs to be accountability for judges.
