Prosecutors Now Backing Away from Statements and Charges Against January 6th Protestors

Thoroughly corrupt and weaponized DOJ is still using the same tactics to attack political enemies.

Should this surprise anyone?

The rule of law is being destroyed. (for long time)

[Red Badger]

But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted - and you create a nation of law-breakers - and then you cash in on guilt. Now that’s the system, Mr. Reardon, that’s the game, and once you understand it, you’ll be much easier to deal with.” ― Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

[Libloather]

Hard to prove insurrection when there wasn’t any.

[eastsider]

... walk-backs ...

... walks-back ...

[TiGuy22]

Fair, but how does one respond to people about protestors marching the capital, entering and looting? How do we say what this was if not an insurrection?

[Lurker]

The process is the punishment.

If the Cap Police let them in, the prosecutors don’t have a case. Democrats did the same thing in North Carolina many years ago and nothing happened to them

"The rule of law is being destroyed."

Down goes the Republic.!! Now the rise of the communist...

The United States surrenders, without even a fight.... :(

Prosecute for destruction of property or theft, whatever applies. This is not complicated.

[palmer]

If the Cap Police let them in, the prosecutors don’t have a case.

Doesn't really matter. If someone vanadalized they need to be prosecuted. If they stole something they need to be prosecuted. If they attacked officers in way they especially need to be prosecuted.

Pointing out people who were let in and just walked around is a red herring.

[Alas Babylon!]

A prosecutor in Florida read those words aloud in February in a bid to convince a judge to detain two of Caldwell’s co-defendants. Prosecutors now acknowledge..

Can we get names for this prosecutor and judge?

[dfwgator]

The damage has been done. Mission Accomplished.

[Manly Warrior]

Agreed. Now apply the law equally.

Yes, the difference is this is feds, the minions elsewhere were/are city/state level.

“Fair, but how does one respond to people about protestors marching the capital, entering and looting? How do we say what this was if not an insurrection?”

Just ask the following question: When has there been in insurrection in the past 500 years without ANY firearms, or even any weapons to speak of? How credible was that unarmed rag-tag group of people in taking over the government when 100,000 military and civilian well-armed US troops/police were within 10 miles?

Leftists, in the 1970s, set off bombs in the Capitol - that was far closer to an insurrection than this non-event (all we managed to do was hang a picture of some black guy sitting on a bed in the Capitol Rotunda). Why wasn’t the bombing called an ‘insurrection’?

Anyway, if that’s not enough, the MEDIA is now backing away from the term ‘insurrection’ and has quietly replaced it with ‘riot’ now. They can’t even say ‘insurrection’ with a straight face anymore.

[Alas Babylon!]

Pointing out people who were let in and just walked around is a red herring.

Maybe, but many were.

Should they be prosecuted?

Called "insurrectionist"?

Lose their jobs?

I agree to prosecute, convict and jail ANYONE who used any violence that day, but how does one sort the wheat from the chaff?

Certainly not by the DNCMedia or social media.

But anyone who was there that day for the purpose of supporting Trump has been branded all of those things.

A prosecutor in Florida read those words aloud in February in a bid to convince a judge to detain two of Caldwell’s co-defendants. Prosecutors now acknowledge that Caldwell was not even a dues-paying member of the Oath Keepers and that they lack evidence he ever entered the Capitol.

And the Judge is just as CORRUPT, this should have landed the Lawyer a $10,000 Sanction, Referral to the BAR for Permanent Disbarment, and a Referral for Criminal Prosecution for Defrauding the Court.

[HollyB]

Yes, but the people who were let in and just walked around, should not be prosecuted.
