Prosecutors Will Not Charge Capitol Police Officer in Death of Ashli Babbitt
Legal Insurrection ^ | 04/14/2021 | Mary Chastain

Posted on 04/14/2021 11:30:50 AM PDT by Rusty0604

The Capitol Police officer who allegedly shot and killed Ashli Babbitt during the January 6 riot will not face charges:

An investigation conducted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia determined “that there is insufficient evidence to support a criminal prosecution,” the department said in a statement.

“... can you file a John doe type of name listed in a civil case?”

I’m not a lawyer, but I work for a law firm, and cases are filed like that all the time. Almost certainly someone will sue.

So he gets away with murder of an unarmed citizen with zero consequences. Democrats don’t do time for any crime.

Very True. “Laws are for little people.” Remember that one.

You think our side could burn down a Footlocker and loot a dollar General? LOL

White liberal ‘elites’ would NOT be ‘oh so tolerant’ if we tried half the stuff their pets do. Nope, white liberal ‘elites’ would have the capital police pull out machine guns and murder us.

All of us... and our kids and our families.... and no one would be charged... It would be just like what happened to Ashli Babbitt, but on a larger scale.

Then, why is the media demanding charges be filed against the officer the shot Duante Wright? Babbitt was far less of a threat to public safety than a someone that broke free while being handcuffed, got into his vehicle and tried to lead police on high speed chase.

Babbitt was even warned before she was shot.

In the video I saw, I never heard any warning given to the crowd to disperse and there was definitely no warning given from the door way where the officer with the gun was standing. Can’t understand how the officer was justified in firing his weapon

Maybe, and I’m being darkly cynical, the incident was set up so that “somebody” would get killed to fulfill the pre-planned media narrative of a “deadly insurrection”. It didn’t need to be anyone specifically.

Maybe the Powers That Be thought that by shooting someone they’d kick off return fire from the “insurrectionists”, and this went awry because as the FBI showed, nobody in the capitol was carrying.

Making the shooter’s identity a state secret seems like a bad idea. Eventually though it will leak out.

Sad to watch. There was a report out awhile back that the shooter said he was afraid she might have explosives or weapons in her backpack. I can’t tell on the video if he even had a good look at her backpack.

He sure didn’t look like one in the video.

If we could get SOROS type funding like BLM and ANTIFA does, we could hire protesters like they do.

Dear Police Officers in the USA, follow the suspect’s car until they are in front of the US Capital and then pull the suspect’s car over. You will be safe no matter what happens.........

I don’t understand either. It’s political.

Anything is possible.

Capitol Police Told to ‘Stand Down’ Ahead of Jan. 6 Uprising

A new inspector general’s report further shredded already debunked leftist narratives about the Jan. 6 uprising at the US Capitol.

Capitol Police Inspector General Michael A. Bolton submitted the 104-page document titled “Review of the Events Surrounding the Jan. 6, 2021, Takeover of the U.S. Capitol” in advance of testimony before the House Administration Committee on Thursday.

Even the New York Times was forced to acknowledge after reviewing the report that the mostly peaceful protest was not spontaneously incited by President Donald Trump.
