I think Trump is going to treat this as a civil rights issue and prosecute Brown federally.
Another crime is down politician. Useless!
Yep. Already charged with a federal crime.
He’s has no authority in the matter. This is a State and County Governor, Attorney General and Mecklenburg District Attorney’s issue, and their failure at doing their job. They are all RATS. The State Attorney General’s office needs to be investigated as to why they never tried Decarlos Brown under the three strike felony law. The county needs to be investigated for the handling of criminal cases, the leniency of charges, cases that have been tried, those who have not been tried, and why. Mecklenburg was given $3.3 million by an NGO run by the McArthur foundation to reduce their jail population, specifically focusing on black and Hispanic inmates.
If the Charlotte city government is unwilling or unable to run a safe light rail system, regardless of whether deaths and injuries are caused by mechanical, electrical, or psychological conditions, dismantle the entire thing.
Leave not even one bolt or speck of paint on the ground.
Charlotte, North Carolina would probably benefit from locking up the City Council.
Then the councilman just outted himself as Deep State for nothing.
Good.
This is Newsweek's title, "Charlotte Republican Rejects National Guard Deployment Idea After Stabbing."
This is from within the article -- "...Edwin Peacock III said, 'not at this time'."
See the game?
Charge him with a hate crime since he said twice “I got the white girl” give him the death penalty that is what he deserves..not sitting on death row for 20 yrs eating our food and enjoying the good life, convict him and string him up that night
Yep. Hope he doesn't have plans to run for Federal Office.
It is Federal now. They are using the DOT angle.
Once the National Guard is sent into more dangerous cities, the mayors and officials aren’t going to have much choice. And support will just grow as cities become safer and locals of these dangerous cities realize that it’s not just a pipe dream to dream of being able to go to the local store with a strong probability that you’ll get home safely with your purchases intact.
And democrats cannot figure out why people would rather drive a car than take Mass Transit.
The city SHOULD have a Security Guard on every light rail train in the city...Patrol each car...
I hope the presecute a lot more than Brown for deprivation of rights, like uh the idiot judges who kept letting him out and maybe the mayor and oh how about du guvnor.
