“Unfortunately, it was determined that there were insufficient grounds to appeal the ruling and without the ability to use the evidence that was suppressed, the State's Attorney's Office could not move forward with this case in the good faith that the law requires.”

This is where our legal system (we don't have a justice system) has gone off the rails and punishes the victims and their families twice.

If cops error in an arrest then the cops must be taken to task, fined, fired, whatever is appropriate, while KEEPING the evidence. The evidence is not bad but it is treated as such because of official misconduct or incompetence.

The pendulum has swung way too far towards the criminals.

Miranda is in need of a review but given the "get out of jail free card" to be exploited by trial attorneys it is doubtful their lawyer buddies in congress will change the law.

well I was just reading how those Liberian “boys” who gang raped the 8 yro girl are all getting charges dropped or having probation only....I suppose the little girl can just forget the whole thing happened because apparently to the law, it didn’t happen...
