The Baltimore State Attorney, Marilyn Mosby, filed response motions today in advance of next month’s scheduled hearing. She does not want her investigative team questioned about their activity prior to her Direct Action Charges. In essence she is directly trying to avoid sunlight.
When you read the response motions you begin to understand why. Example #1)

[…]  In asking Circuit Court Judge Barry Williams to revoke the subpoenas, prosecutors expanded on their responses to past defense allegations, including a claim that prosecutors steered police away from looking into whether Gray had a history of “crash-for-cash” schemes to injure himself in hope of collecting settlements.

An America hating socialist and an America hating racist walk into a bar…. No, it’s not the 1960’s, it’s actually a 2015 replay reality:
(Story Via Politico)

Activist Deray McKesson has close ties to the White House.  McKesson has also traveled around the U.S. stoking the fires of racial animus in Ferguson, Madison, Baltimore, Charleston, Cincinnatti and McKinney Texas.

Despite video showing Tyrone Harris shooting a handgun in Ferguson, and despite the CCTV video showing Tyrone Harris holding the handgun just prior to the shooting, and despite Alderman Antonio French seeing the shooting, activist Deray McKesson claims Harris, aka “Ty_Da_Shooter”, was not shooting.

Follow up to THIS STORY – Confirming the Alabama cop didn’t protect himself against the beating by the suspect because he didn’t want to be the next Darren Wilson.

…”A lot of officers are being too cautious because of what’s going on in the media.” “I hesitated because I didn’t want to be in the media like I am right now.”…

(CNN)  A Birmingham, Alabama, police detective who was pistol-whipped unconscious said Friday that he hesitated to use force because he didn’t want to be accused of needlessly killing an unarmed man.
“A lot of officers are being too cautious because of what’s going on in the media,” said the officer, who asked to remain anonymous for the safety of his family. “I hesitated because I didn’t want to be in the media like I am right now.”
Details of last week’s incident in the Birmingham enclave of Roebuck remain sketchy — such as how did the suspect get the officer’s weapon — but the six-year police veteran said he didn’t shoot the man who attacked him during a traffic stop because of the outcry surrounding a spate of police shootings nationally.

I never quite understand the position of affording illegal aliens U.S. constitutional rights, when they are illegal to begin with.  Seriously, what makes the protection of U.S. constitutional law applicable to an illegal entrant.
CALIFORNIA – A California toddler fighting for her life Thursday after a brutal beating at the hands of an illegal immigrant with a long criminal record is the latest case to rile California sheriffs and police against a U.S. immigration policy they say is forcing them to release dangerous criminals out on the street.
Francisco Javier Chavez, the live-in boyfriend of the unidentified two-year-old’s mother, is out on bail after being charged in the late July attack, which left the San Luis Obispo County girl with two broken arms, a broken femur, a compressed spine, a urinary tract infection and a fever of 107 degrees. Chavez’s criminal record includes assault and drug convictions and arrests for violent acts including kidnapping, car jacking and cruelty to a child. (more…)

Last night on Megyn Kelly’s Fox TV show she announced a 1.5 week vacation returning on 8/24.  Lil Miss stated she hadn’t taken a vacation in six months.  Of course the 8-day memorial day break, and 6-day July Fourth break, don’t count as vacation for the intense 4 day work-week schedules of a princess pundit, or something.
However, given the scope of the fallout from Megyn’s intentional set-up of candidate Donald Trump, and the severity of the backlash therein, it’s not difficult to see why the outline of this NY Magazine article is essentially correct.
Unfortunately for Ms. Kelly, the reality of her position has slapped her in the face like a cold fish.

NY Mag […]  Having backed down to the GOP front-runner and all but sacrificed one of his biggest stars to appease the conservative base — a.k.a. Fox viewers — Ailes has set a dangerous precedent. The message is clear: Fox reports, but the audience decides.  (link)

LOL, only in the mind of a progressive publication would listening to your customer be considered “a dangerous precedent“; I digress.   Alas, egos the size of Princess Megyn’s need respite, from the fish.  And princesses never eat crow. (more…)

Within the politically expedient reaction in the North Charleston Walter Scott shooting, SLED moved instantaneously to charge Officer Micheal Slager. As we said at the time, the speed of their investigative decision seemed weighted more to avoid a Ferguson-like reaction than a prudent investigative approach.
As we have seen numerous times – within such a quick response, the construct of full investigative inquiry is almost always lost. As a direct consequence – any fallibility within the case then becomes a risk to the previous assertion. To avoid sunlight upon such a risk, the prosecution maneuvers to make follow-up investigation more difficult. [*note the picture contained within the article – look familiar?]
South Carolina – Defense attorneys for a North Charleston police officer have asked state investigators for a chance to inspect clothing that the lawman and Walter Scott were wearing as they fought moments before Scott’s shooting death.
Former officer Michael Slager remains jailed on a murder charge after he fatally shot Scott, 50, in the back on April 4. (more…)

He DinduNuffin – Tyrone Harris Sr. told The Associated Press his son was a close friend of Michael Brown and was in Ferguson on Sunday night to pay respects.
Harris said his son got caught up in a dispute among two groups of young people and was “running for his life” after gunfire broke out. He said his son had no weapons.
“My son was running to the police to ask for help, and he was shot,” he said. “It’s all a bunch of lies … They’re making my son look like a criminal.”
The father said he spoke with two girls who were with his son. (link)

The St. Louis County Police Department is releasing surveillance video pertinent to the investigation of the officer involved shooting of Tyrone Harris that occurred on August 9, 2015.

Twice last year the business owners within Ferguson Missouri begged the police to stop their stores from being looted, torched and destroyed.  Both times their pleas fell on deaf ears.
The second time the Missouri governor promised to use the National Guard to protect them; but when it really mattered the National Guard were told to stand down – the town was torched, businesses lost.
Today a desperate community pleaded with Saint Louis leadership to protect them.  Perhaps, the third time is a charm?  Ongoing….

Cornel West and dozens of professional anarchists were arrested today in downtown Saint Louis as the Communist groups, Occupy Wall Street groups, Black lives matter groups, and other professional provocatuers take their place again to create chaos in the streets and advocate for various anti-Law and Order issues.

As a consequence of the multiple shooting events last night in Ferguson Missouri another state of emergency has been declared.

Activst Deray McKesson (pictured above being arrested) and Communist activist Lisa Fifthian can be seen (below) coordinating today’s confrontation with police.   (more…)
