tate's Attorney Marilyn Mosby's prosecution against the six officers charged in the death of Freddie Gray, is getting off to a shaky start. One of the main pillars of her case is that the officers made an illegal arrest because Gray was not carrying an illegal knife. But the Police task force determined that the knife does violate a Baltimore code.
Mosby also badly botched her announcement of the charges in the case at her press conference, Friday afternoon. Of the six Baltimore PD officers who were charged, "two of them were charged under the wrong names, the wrong dates of birth, and wrong address," Sheriff Mike Lewis alleged on Hannity , Monday night.
"When Miss Mosby stood up in front of the world with her theatrics at her press conference last Friday she charged two of the wrong people. Now, when I say she charged two of the wrong people, I don't mean she charged two of the wrong officers. I mean she charged the wrong people. Innocent people. Of the six police officers that were charged, two of them were charged under the wrong names, the wrong dates of birth and the wrong addresses.
And because of that, reporters went to the wrong addresses of these innocent people, these private citizens and whose lives have now been invaded. They went to their homes, knocked on their doors. They harassed them. They went to their neighbors and attempted to get interviews. And it wasn't until these innocent people these private citizens contacted their local state's attorney's offices that this problem was rectified."
Lewis concluded that the embarrassing blunder was the "direct result of a hasty prosecutor who wants to charge these individuals." Sounds like a hasty witch trial to appease the masses? Coverup to protect higher ups? Incompetence all the way down?

The hasty indictments were more about crowd control than justice. It worked. The can has been kicked. Yes, it will eventually unravel down the road and the riots will reboot, but then we can blame the White Man's legal system for the chaos.

The real kicker's yet to come, as in the fact that the "local jokester" was going about his regular business at the pusher's corner. The knife was the probable cause to take him into custody. The possession charge was supposed to come later, but Freddie screwed his own pooch.

And political ambitions of the fresh new attorney general who oh-so desperately wants to make a name for herself.
And later on when the charges are dropped or reduced or they are aquitted and the city is literally burning around her. She can say "I did my best! It was the corrupt system which let these murderers go free! Vote for me to fix it!"
Never mentioning that Baltimore, Detroit, Chicago, and other crime-ridden cities are the de-facto Model Cities of Democrat Rule.
When charges were announced Friday against Alicia White for the death of Freddie Gray, her phone started buzzing from journalists and bail bondsmen. The problem was, they were calling the wrong Alicia White. The elementary school cafeteria manager from East Baltimore was not the Baltimore Police sergeant charged with manslaughter in the high-profile police custody death - even though court records listed her.
On Friday evening, Tammy and Brian Rice of Brunswick, Md. said they were receiving multiple calls from reporters looking for the lieutenant. Brian Rice of Brunswick is a plumber, they said.

No surprises. The Baltimore PD is, after all, nothing more than one part of a deep blue city government which is broken and corrupt from one end to the next.

Only Lady Marilyn Mosby
Knows how out of joint her nose be:
The blade that by right should've dubbed her
Is brandished by those who have snubbed her.

I'll be charitable and chalk it up as a rush-job.
That said, how in blazes did a cafeteria manager and a plumber's personal information ("...address... height... weight...driver's license number...") end up in the public domain without someone in the Marland County Sheriff's Office, or the State's Attorney's Office, checking on it first?
At least they had the sense to modify the cops' addresses to the general mailing address for the Baltimore Police Department...

Bravo! I vote for the blatant snub direct, as the lady deserves nothing less.

The FBI has a fundamental belief that the citizenry serfs exist to serve the state. Anything to make the masters duties easier overrides those old fashion 'rights' written up by a bunch of old white males.
What do they want to do? Be able to say they had (anyone) people under observation again before said people did something despicable? They got it now with dangerous people and do absolutely nothing till after the fact. Their problem isn't date collection, it's the internal processes to act upon what they already have.

What happened to the 4th Amendment? You know, the one that says:
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
The Feds having unrestricted power? All the more reason for Constitutional protections. It is not obsolete or passe but more important than ever.

Whenever there's a domestic terrorism incident, for some reason the FBI confirms they were monitoring the perp and that they did nothing.
I am reassured (That a suburban TX traffic cop can properly execute a headshot under duress).

I'm beginning to suspect most of the security apparatus is there to protect the interests of the state AGAINST the people. It's just sold as protecting the people.

The tragic events of Waco convinced me of that BP. Everything since is just additional confirmation.
I'm still trying to fit the Benghazi pieces together, your Blue Mountain Security, Aegis, the Turkish connection, etc. It will all surface eventually I suppose.
It's interesting how we don't hear this phrase as much anymore.
Probably because no one's having kids anymore.
Also interesting to note that today's Millenial neckbeards and neon coiffed SJWs are the "children" for which all the protections of the Eighties/Nineties were put in place.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
