I don’t see how they can get a fair trial. I don’t think this will be granted, to do so might spark more riots. Even with a new attorney the “jury of their peers” is going to be composed of members of the mob of looters, their family and friends.
Histories most famous capital case, the crucifixion of Jesus, was the result of a a mob serving as jury. I expect about the same outcome here.
Sad, some of the police charged may, in fact, be guilty of some crimes. However the process know underway is not designed to determine that, but rather to serve as part of leftist narrative building.
It will be interesting to see how this is handled.
Special prosecutor and change of venue or better yet, dismissal of all charges. This is George Zimmerman writ large, whereas a long, thorough investigation might have found some real evidence.
It’s pretty frequent that once a case like this is examined, criminal charges do not stick but civil ones either still do or are settled. This is for a reason; the standards of proof are different. The folks howling for a lynching might not be so happy with the concept when it comes sailing their way.
to quote bill clinton, “they have no evidence”
there is a corpse but no evidence of how the transition from life to death was made
