John Conyers III arrested but not prosecuted in domestic abuse case
NBC News ^

Posted on 12/06/2017 2:36:38 PM PST by ameribbean expat

LOS ANGELES — John Conyers III, a Detroit hedge fund manager named as a possible successor to his scandal-rocked father, Rep. John Conyers, was arrested in Los Angeles this year on suspicion of domestic violence, but prosecutors declined to charge him, according to documents obtained by NBC News.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office cited a "lack of independent witnesses" and their conclusion that it "could not be proven beyond a reasonable doubt that the victim’s injury was not accidentally sustained" while he was disarming her, according to case paperwork.

When the Fed is handing out free money, people closest to the bank win. Get close enough, you too can have your own hedge fund.

My first thought was why would a progg have a gun? I thought they did not like guns? And they do not like guns, when we have them.

“Why do all rappers have to wave their hand out in front of them while rapping?”

Well DUH..!

Law enforcement is almost always reluctant to prosecute the left-wing socialist political class!

Even more scary for law enforcement, this is a black dude from the left-wing socialist political class!

Its part of the two tier justice system the establishment uniparty has in place.

Police don’t like to lose their jobs over just violence or nothin!

THIS AIN’T ROCKET SURGERY !

"I'm sure it's a Chelsea Clinton type a job. Probably a payoff to Conyers Senior for some *******"

Kind of like someone who got a job in a Chicago Hospital for 300 large a year and then had to surrender their law license for playing both side of the table, not to mention any names....

Hedge Fund Manager? How did this guy pass a U-4 background check to get in the securities business, that is what I want to know...

...not to mention any names....

The explanation I read was that that person, a Harvard Law "grad", was unable to write a coherent brief that even a court janitor couldn't rip to shreds verbally, before physically shredding to line the bottom of bird cages.
