Authorities dropped charges Thursday on six high school students involved in a brutal assault of a commuter and police officer on the Washington D.C. metro.
D.C. Attorney General Karl Racine said he could not comment on the case and why the charges were abruptly dropped, but he suggested there is not enough hard video evidence to identify the teens charged and prove they were involved in the January assault, reports NBC Washington.
The teens were commuting to Woodrow Wilson High School when the fight broke out. Police say a teen punched a 35 year old man on the red line, who swung back and ignited the massive brawl. Surveillance video captured the fight, which began on a metro train and spilled out onto the platform at the Gallery Place station.
The video showed a mob of juveniles exploding off the train onto the platform as onlookers scattered out of the way. The victim suffered cuts to his face, and police initially said he was targeted by the teens, who were said to have a wolf pack mentality.

I don’t get this.
There isn’t enough hard video evidence?? What are we saying?? That unless we have video surveillance of a crime, then it didn’t happen?? That if the pictures aren’t of good enough quality, then we have to doubt the seriousness of the crime???
Isn’t there evidence besides the video? Like witness testimony, evidence if injury to the man who was assualted, etc???
These wolf pack members who are high fiving now, because they got off this time, will continue their lives of crime. They will get in prison eventually.
So a cop was unable to identify who brutally assaulted him?
Damned shame. The other victims were of no help either.
Tsk tsk.
It’s a shame the cop didn’t put a few “unarmed black youths” in the ground. If the courts won’t convict predators, society needs to solve the problem outside the courts. When the cop was being assaulted, he knew who was attacking him.
Got a call from Obama telling them to make it go away is my guess.
I only had a 5 shot revolver. This is a good argument for a 15 round magazine.
Or even, hopefully, they’ll get something they’ll even more richly deserve, and save us long-suffering taxpayers for footing the bill for yet one more useless waste of oxygen and free food, healthcare (even to “change their gender”, should they choose), worthless college degress, etc.
Bernie Goetz was a Nostrodamus like hero.
pressure from the Justice Dept maybe?
Black privilege.
Utter bs.
Haven’t you heard ?
No more putting negro criminals, or Mexican Criminals, or Terrorists in jail. Only white people from now on.
Minorities who are presently in jail are being scheduled for release.
Self perjury?
You want to clear out the thugs and the gangs, you’re going to have to start with their protectors.
Feral jerks are the new protected class; however, if you are a tranny feral jerk, you might get a Medal of Freedom from Clown Prince nobama’s (IN)justice department.
Retarded feral wolf-packers all look alike on camera.
. . .there is not enough hard video evidence to identify the teens charged and prove they were involved in the January assault . . . .
They all look like Trayvon?
