#3  Equal Justice Under the Law, trifecta exemptions clauses, Melanin Exemption, Muslim immigrant Exemption, and of course, Marxist, feminist LAWYER exemption. So of course, nothing to see here rubes.

#2  And they bitch about white juries in the south (pre-WWII to the 1970s) dealing with the acts of real white supremacists. Why don't sharks eat lawyers - professional courtesy.

Just Saying

Usually when such drastically reduced plea deals are accepted it because the person(s) are ratting out their fellow cohorts in crime and mayhem in exchange for wrist slaps.

I sure would hate to be in the lawyers shoes when the American Fascist Klan and BLoM Rioters figures this out and starts visiting their offices and homes.
