Obama Intervened, Repeatedly, in Ongoing Trials and Investigations
Breitbart News ^ | 2/13/2020 | Joel B. Pollack

“There was greater controversy when President Barack Obama weighed in on the arrest of a Harvard professor in 2009.

Obama said that Cambridge, Massachusetts, police “acted stupidly” when arresting Professor Henry Louis Gates, Jr. in July 2009. Gates had locked himself out of his home and forced the door open; a neighbor called police, and a confrontation ensued after Sgt. James Crowley arrived and asked for ID.

In a press conference several days later, Obama admitted he did not have all the facts, but still accused the officer of racism.”

If she’s doing what I think she’s doing, she’s going to have a wet patch on her skirt.

Yes it was only a state case.

The FBI investigated for hate crime IIR but no case was made.

Now, if your argument is that Obama was referring to the case because of the FBI investigation, then you may have a point that he had every right to speak up.
HOWEVER, IIR, he spoke about the case before it was adjudicated as a murder trial and before the FBI started looking for a hate crime.

But I could be mistaken in my memory.

But to say I don’t know what I’m talking about when say Zimmerman trial was a state case, is just flat out wrong.
