It was only a reporter, after all. *bada*boom*kisk*
Innocent until proven guilty by a court of law.
This is one of the ways a Democrat gains “street cred.”
Why let a charge of murder slow down your political career?
So, what happens in ....
Why not? He is a Democrat and will be reelected in a landslide the next election. Plus at the end of the month, he will be released from jail.
The government in works.
It is really hard to fire government worker.
In 2006, Phoenix was ravaged by serial killer(s) named highway shooter.
It turned out to be a couple of detrained individuals who just cruised around and hunted people who looked like homeless, just for sport.
The guys were arrested, indicted, convicted, sentenced to death.
One of them worked as a janitor in Phoenix airport.
Even after sitting on death row, he was still working there. It took them about 4-5 years to fire him eventually!
Fixed it.
One problem - he was video taped driving away in his own car, with his license plate in full view.
What is the mental process involved that makes otherwise reasonably intelligent people think they can get away with crimes like murder?
Remember all the outrage about Trump’s supposed threat to the free press?
Where is the outrage about this Democrat elected official actually murdering a journalist who was investigating him?
That’s incredibly sick.
Ought to be a mechanism to prevent it
Viva Las Vegas.
OMG!! TWO JUSTICE SYSTEMS!!!
Why isn’t he running for president yet?
Sounds like a solid Democrat to me.
Real people working real jobs get fired for not showing up.
If there isn’t a method of impeachment/removal of an elected official in the LV city charter, and he doesn’t resign his office, then he will still hold office and receive pay. He obviously doesn’t care about his official duties, since he can’t execute them from jail which tells one a lot about his character.
But right now, he’s got much bigger problems on his mind. As I’ve read it, the case against him is pretty solid—his DNA is at the murder scene so he’ll likely be spending the rest or a big part of his life ‘away’.
Well elected, not appointed, and not found guilty. Actually seems pretty legit.
Democrat party takes care of their own.
