That there wasn't crazy pressure on the prosecutor from and via Rahm from every person who is invested in the phony-racial strife industry? I wouldn't be surprised if The Messiah himself didn't lob in a phone call seeking this resolution. The cops usually have strength to say "***** you" and do their own thing. Prosecutors are just pawns of the politicians. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the facts, it should take a jury about 20 minutes to convict him as he's clearly guilty of the charges. Of course it's not really a big deal if this particular idiot is punished or not, but it is kind of a big deal that powerful underlying forces worked to push a false narrative in this case for their own benefit and once uncovered, were able to successfully sweep it under the rug. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. As much as people like to cry about the criminal justice system being racist, for the most part it's really just classist. Of course, there is the small detail that Kim Foxx is a Kamala Harris acolyte. But hey when it benefits the narrative who's really paying attention? I guess this is what criminal justice reform looks like in Crook County. Welcome to our bankrupt system, where veterans get rolled into paying $5M in legal fees over a witch hunt and scumbag actors walk thanks to their political connections. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeviF Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 (edited) Remember when the people who said that Trump wouldn't accept the conclusions of the Mueller report ended up being the exact same people who can't accept the conclusions of the Mueller report? Fun times. Fun times. But back to the task at hand: Chicago politicreeps managed to get this guy off the hook, but why? Could it be that he's in a group that prides itself on providing group members with old-fashioned privileges because of some sense of superiority? They had him dead to rights on at least one charge. What about money? Who got money, from whom, when, and for what purpose? And don't forget that Chicago PD basically called it when it was revealed Kim Foxx was going to handle the case (at first).
