No one can say what this was. Factual info is sparse. Those who know are not sharing. Wonder why?
What is known that continues to trouble me is the mass roundup and the excessive bail.
115 of those arrested showing no convictions on their records.
“What is known that continues to trouble me is the mass roundup and the excessive bail.”
That can and will be discussed and litigated (writ of Habeas Corpus and bond reduction hearings). When these are held we will have a much clear picture.

This info will go into the above stated hearings. But it is irrelevant right now. Maybe some are innocent of overt actions that day but have records. Should we treat them with higher bail than those that committed overt actions but have no criminal convictions?
It is a mess to sort out the details. Was the roundup and detention extreme? Probably. But a gang war in a family plaza on a Saturday afternoon is extreme. Nine were killed but it could have been much worse.

Aren’t you equally as skeptical of that, as you are of other items you seen posted on the internet?
