You're giddy?

Apparently you can assault law enforcement in DC now and it's not a crime.

Even the criminal judgement system finds Subway to be unworthy.

The incompetent Trump administration has weaponized the DoJ, but fortunately the system still has life in it to prevent this kind of corruption.

Pay Wall.

The article confirms that it’s just Dems on the jury refusing to enforce the law, due to their own “moral objections”.

Jury nullification is when a juror refuses to find guilt or indict someone due to moral objection to the law or charges in question, regardless of whether the defendant is guilty or not.

So this means conservatives should then dismiss any case against a right winger if they feel it’s political or if the law isn’t fair.

Overharging by a corrupt, incompetent prosecutor

18 U.S. Code § 111 says, “whoever forcibly assaults, resists, opposes, impedes, intimidates, or interferes with any person (or formerly served) designated in section 1114 of this title who are engaged in the performance of official duties, shall be fined and imprisoned for up to one year for simple assault, and up to eight years where such acts involve physical contact with the victim of that assault or the intent to commit another felony, and use of a deadly or dangerous, or inflicts bodily injury shall be fined and imprisoned not over 20 years ”

And they jury found that tossing a sandwich
was none of those things.

Actually it is, they chose not to convict.

Then they would get a whiny MAGAt on every jury.

So you can probably shelve that dumb talking point.

Stupid Bondi is empaneling a GJ for Brennan in Florida.

Which is the same stupid talking point, since trial juries have to be unanimous.

So dumb. How many times do we have to go over this?

I would submit the jury thought, since the officer was feted with a fake award etc. That they didn't find this constituted assault.

Frankly guilty with damage assessed at cleaning costs x3 would have been appropriate.
