A Democratic prosecutor backed by George Soros faces a recall effort after an angel mom urged voters in her county to remove him from office "before another family pays the price."
Earlier this year, Stephanie Minter, 41, was stabbed and killed at a bus stop in Fairfax County, Virginia. An illegal immigrant from Sierra Leone, Abdul Jalloh, is accused of killing her. Jalloh had a lengthy criminal record, including convictions for malicious wounding, identity theft, trespassing and assault. He also had a prior charge of forcible rape.
The case comes as violent and sexual crime has increased in Fairfax County and has renewed scrutiny of Democratic Commonwealth’s Attorney Steve Descano. Descano won office with significant financial backing from the Soros family’s Justice and Public Safety PAC. So far, the recall effort led by the victim’s mother, Cheryl Minter, has collected more than 12,000 signatures.
In an interview with Fox News Digital, Minter said she is calling for Descano to be removed from office because she believes "had they actually prosecuted these people, then Stephanie would still be alive."
Under Virginia law, organizers must gather valid signatures from registered voters equal to 10% of the votes cast in the last election, file a detailed petition alleging specific legal grounds and prove those grounds in circuit court before a judge can remove the prosecutor.
Speaking with Fox News Digital, Minter explained, "Stephanie was my world. She was my only daughter. She was so much to me."
Minter said her grief motivated her to take action. She said her daughter’s killing opened her eyes to what she sees as a broader problem, saying Stephanie's death is "not an isolated failure." She believes Descano’s prosecutorial leadership is a common thread in the stories of many victims in Fairfax County.

A Soros-backed prosecutor in Fairfax County is facing recall effort after a grieving mother says he let an illegal immigrant with 30 prior arrests walk free — before the man allegedly stabbed her daughter to death at a bus stop.

What happened to “3 strikes, you’re out”?
As usual when the leftists name something the exact opposite is the result.
If they’re letting them walk free, then we can follow them freely. After a while they will want to be locked up.
Bureaucracy only rewards failure, and they reward it big.
What happened to ICE rounds up criminal illegal and send him to BFE?
Jalloh had a lengthy criminal record, including convictions for malicious wounding, identity theft, trespassing and assault. He also had a prior charge of forcible rape.
Has. The word you are looking for is has. These ass-clowns in robes, and crooked DAs have to be reined in
“Bureaucracy only rewards failure, and they reward it big.”
It is not a failure. It is working as designed.
I can’t imagine what truly goes on in Soros’ head. He’s hurt so many people.
Fairfax County doesn’t cooperate with ICE, I bet.
What great diversity was achieved importing this piece of melanated crap.
I’m #12,743.
That didn’t work out too well for us in Hillsborough County, FL when Soros’s pick for U.S. Prosecutor Andrew Warren was rightfully removed by Gov. DeSantis who replaced him with Suzy “Bondi Lite” Lopez. So now we have an oxymoron as our chief prosecutor. I don’t think anyone living in Hillsborough County even knows her name. This has got to be the bluest and most corrupted county in the entire state. All the lawyers are on the take and arrogant as hell. You can’t get anyone sued even if you have the money to do it with. The lawyers run away from you, tell you there’s no merit to your claim. Tell you the statutes allow what the defendant has done to you. Too many of them do it for it to be just a coincidence. Risk aversion amongst members of the bar seems to be a disease which pays very well to contract nowadays.
I will use a simple Memphis example. The utility company bills you for "mosquito control" every month. This was for the trucks that would fog neighborhoods. The agency then had to hire drivers certified in pest control application. They had to have CDL's. These requirements are due to new regulations. The drivers were now in charge and had authority. The city instead stopped running the trucks and now study mosquito vectors. This is great! It rewards failure to perform services. You are still billed for "mosquito control", but they have no intent on controlling mosquitoes. The more they fail to, the more the complaints, the more they increase fees. They now have an entire wing in the county office to study mosquitoes. I now know we have over 15 species of mosquitoes in Memphis thanks to their diligence. They just don't actually control any of them. Singular or collective.
Soros his supporters and acolytes need the protection and peace of mind only achievable through the covid vaccine and boosters.
“pays very well”
Serious bodily injury + deep pocketed corporation (or big blue city)
Serious money gets serious work.
“lawyers are on the take and arrogant as hell”
Doctors are generally arrogant.
Lawyers are generally lazy.
Some will do an honest day’s work for big money, if you get lucky. The percentages might be as high as 5% for lawyers and 25% for doctors.
This Descano bum has really made a bad name for himself in NOVA, him and some other Soros lackey out in Loudon County
