Arrests of Straight Pride Parade counter protesters in Boston turns into courtroom battle
"BOSTON — A decision to drop charges against left-wing protesters arrested at Saturday's Straight Pride Parade has turned into a courtroom fight, pitting a newly elected district attorney who ran on reform-minded platform against a Boston judge.
In an unusual move, Municipal Court Judge Richard Sinnott this week refused to follow Suffolk County DA Rachael Rollins' request to dismiss charges against many of the 36 counter protesters arrested for disorderly conduct during the parade and rally."
How DARE he make protestors responsible for their actions?
