Most Portland riot suspects will not be prosecuted: US attorney

David Bouchard admitted he put a Customs and Border Protection officer in a chokehold. Charles Comfort was indicted by a grand jury of civil disorder for twice charging at Portland Police Bureau officers and hitting them with a makeshift shield then kicking a third officer while being arrested. Both men faced federal charges stemming from their actions during a summer of more than 100 straight nights of often violent protests in Portland. But Bouchard and Comfort are among dozens of Portland federal arrestees whose cases were dismissed or are being deferred without so much as a day behind bars. 

Between May 25 and Oct. 7, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Oregon filed federal charges against 97 people connected to the Portland unrest. Since then 58 of those cases have either been dismissed outright or are on track for dismissal through a deferred resolution agreement. Thirty-two cases are still pending, with many likely to also end in dismissal according to sources. Seven people have entered guilty pleas.

What a shithole.

The article gives almost zero information. It could easily be interpreted as this guy had an accomplice in the murder. With that said, this is why I have conflicting views on the death penalty.

It could definitely be interpreted as establishing reasonable doubt yet they killed him anyway coz you never want to waste a perfectly good batch of poison

Right. That’s why I said I have conflicting views on the death penalty. That is a very final outcome. Kind of hard to undo

Good.  Find the other guy, and execute him too.

Great, another Lol Angeles nutjob.

Why do blacks hate Asians so much?

It's like they wanted to make sure this verdict would be overturned.

If this is accurate it's good evidence for any future appeals for Chauvin.

Appeals, or have the verdict thrown out and a new trial issued?  One of the lawyers or Cals can probably answer better.

That will never happen. No way a court is going to put their lives and family's lives in jeopardy over this. At this point it has nothing to do with justice and the rule of law.

Well, he killed the guy, so there's that.

He gave him hypertension, forced him to smoke crack and made him resist arrest? Fuck, they didn’t tell me that on Fox News.

Did Chauvin give him Covid, too?

Of course not, but he still killed him.

Sign into one of the alt accounts next time. It's more believable.

I leave town for a week and it gets out of control. I specifically told the San Dimas sheriffs to shoot women who are using their cell phones while driving and twice if they can't produce a driver's license while waiting for paramedics.

The judicial system cannot support a juror lying during selection. Chauvin's constitutional rights were denied. The prosecution cannot benefit from fruit of the poisoned tree, whether that be by illegally obtained evidence or jury corruption.

Oh you left town?  Where did you go?  Why is this the first we are hearing about it?

It was a needs to know basis. You weren't on the list.

Is there a reason you quoted me?

I like you more than Cals.

I remember  a few people questioning the process of this trial a few weeks ago. Did we really need a picture of a lying jury member to change opinions? I mean we spent a year with panties on our head with nothing but a video game as evidence. People still want to wear the panties now that mortality data suggest no real advantage. 

[Kotchman]

We could at least make a game out of it. Everyone should have to wear the set of the last person you banged.
