With 4 groups plus others not yet indicted, prosecution may be playing for turning states evidence, immunity, or other mechanisms to make their cases against the worst offenders. I hate to judge by appearances, but after looking at the mug shots of those indicted, I find it incredibly easy to believe that some of them are hardened criminals capable of almost anything. With so many killed, so many involved, and so many potential witnesses, this is going to be an incredibly difficult and time consuming case to process forensics, interviews, background checks, and everything else to establish truth and maybe even justice.
Are you aware that 117 of the 177 have no criminal record? And that most of those with records have relatively minor offenses? Certainly, there are probably hardened criminals. But not 177 of them.
There’s no love lost in this situation either, the way it appears.
Gnarly bikers vs. mean Man. And the rubber stamping only amps this factor up.
Did a very large number of them have any idea that a rumble was set to go down. Color me a doubter. This was a venue and agenda which was not known for rumbles.
