Horowitz: MN gov paroles child-killer while threatening single mom with prison for opening restaurant
The Blaze ^ | December 17, 2020 | DANIEL HOROWITZ

Posted on 12/19/2020 7:10:52 AM PST by lowbridge

Larvita McFarquhar is America embodied. An African-American single mom with four children to support, Larvita never asked for handouts. She opened Haven's Garden, in Lynd, Minnesota, a family-oriented restaurant with an attached gymnasium for kids to have a good time. She is the ultimate entrepreneur and family woman, but in Walz's Sodom and Gomorrah, she is now a criminal. She had the audacity to pursue the rights spelled out in the Declaration of Independence and kept her business open at great expense with full compliance with all the unscientific distancing restrictions.

The twisted irony is that Walz is all in on the de-incarceration agenda. Just last month, he stated that "incarceration is a failure of the system." But what he really meant was only incarceration for dangerous criminals should be shunned. On Wednesday afternoon, Nathan Hansen, Larvita's attorney, posted on Twitter that "Assistant Minnesota Attorney General Kaitrin C. Vohs filed court documents to have Ms. McFarquhar potentially imprisoned to force her compliance with Governor Tim Walz's executive order."

On Tuesday, Gov. Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison, as part of the state's Board of Pardons, voted to immediately commute the life sentence of Myon Burrell after he served 18 years for the murder of 11-year-old Tyesha Edwards in 2002. He intended to kill someone else in a gang fight that day, but a stray bullet hit Edwards in the heart while she was in her home doing schoolwork. Burrell's cousin and jailmate testified in 2002 that he confessed to the killing, and Timothy Oliver, the intended victim of the shooting, testified that Burrell pulled the trigger. But, of course, Burrell and his lawyer maintain that he is an innocent man.

Why did Walz release him? The "science" of teenage killers!

I bet it won't be on a regularly scheduled election day.

When newsly-elected Obama bragged he was the “change” that would remake America......this topsy-turvy world is what he meant.

Took the nincompoop Halfrican 12 years to get what he wanted.......a reflection of his Progressive incompetence.

It will only be reported herr. People on MN will never know or hear the story.

They’ve rigged the elections so that only they and their cronies can win, while the GOP bickered, ignored warnings, and ate their own.

I am from MN, and you are largely correct, but now I know about this story. There are several other nonsensical enforcement’s of the law here (selective and politically motivated), so this is just another example among many.

It really boils down to a perverted worldview vs. liberty and justice.

This is why we need to use death sentences much more often and much more quickly. He should have never been released.

There is no way to know any more what votes were counted for whom, and how, and for how long. It is possible that fewer than 10% of American office-holders nationwide were legitimately elected by a canvass of actual ballots cast by real people. Trump's billions and celebrity got him past the gatekeepers - once - but how many "real" Republicans can match that in down-ballot races?

Thief River Falls, but descended from the St. Olaf McFarquhars.

BTW, did you know that 'Larvita' is Latin for 'tiny larva'?

We are smack dab in the middle of those days where good is called evil and evil is called good.
