Many criminals need further “trauma” to “process.”

I do not mean quick bail and off to the lawyer for a suit over the uncomfortable accommodations at the jail.

said the defendant "[b]eneath her surface functionality is gravely compromised." Rahman, she says, has two therapists, regularly attends meetings of Alcoholics Anonymous, and is prescribed an array of psychiatric medications.

Other thread said White House emptying out of several people. Keep this defendant in mind as a top prospect to join the team.

“Rahman has remained under house arrest with electronic monitoring since June 2020, when a former Obama administration intelligence official helped post her $250,000 bail.”

Yeah, Obama wasn’t stirring up racial violence...

From Rahman’s appearance, words, and deeds, I’d guess she attracted a lot of abuse. It’s no excuse for her crimes. Since she needs time to work out her “issues”, give her the maximum sentence, then deport her.

“ intoxication is NEVER a defense to prosecution.”

Wrong. Involuntary intoxication is a defense.

[StAnDeliver]

Disbarred for life. I don’t care about the rest.

[Cuttnhorse]

I will be pleasantly surprised if she and her turd partner get much more than a suspended sentence and a couple years of probation, maybe a fine that covers replacing the vehicle.

Our culture holds no one accountable for a crime if the cause is considered “just”.

They chose to not only throw but make and distribute Molotov cocktails. A witness testified that Rahman passed the explosives out earlier to rioters.

Prosecutors also revealed text messages between Rahman and Mattis showing they planned the attack.

“Bring it to their neck,” Mattis texted Rahman before sharing the location of police headquarters. “Molotovs rollin’,” Rahman responded. “I hope they burn everything down. Need to burn all police stations down and probably the courts too.”

Rahman also gave a video interview before distributing the explosives. “This shit won’t ever stop unless we fuckin’ take it all down,” she said. “The only way they hear us is through violence.”

[robel]

So she’s decided to wait until the charges are dropped before filing a multimillion lawsuit?

[Vision]

She needs to be in jail and disbarred. Good Lord people.

I pitty the fool that marries this wacko bit*h. Hag has some issues.

[Seruzawa]

Oh boo f***ing hoo.

[Seruzawa]

It’s all a put on. People pay shrinks to get excuses to use in court. Shrinks have nothing that actually helps people.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Good Lord, what a miserable, execrable litany of pitiful and lame excuses...

• ...drank vodka on "an empty stomach"
• ...it was an "aberrational" act meant to protect others from future police violence
• ...expressing anger at those police officers around the country for whom Black lives did not matter
• ...an act of protest intended to avoid exposing others to harm
• ...her conduct that night was a marked deviation from her otherwise exemplary life
• ...each diagnosed with anxiety and depression, for which they have received psychiatric care
• ...both have been treated for alcoholism
• ...beneath her surface functionality is gravely compromised

Disbar them, then STRING THEM UP! After a fair trial, of course.

“Your honor, my fraternity brothers poured that liquor down my throat. I swear!”

[sauropod]

Uh-huh.
