Fury as New York prosecutors DROP looting charges against HUNDREDS arrested during riots last summer – with Manhattan DA ‘too busy building his case against Trump’

Daily Mail-

Business owners and residents in New York City are expressing fury at the revelation that prosecutors have dropped looing and rioting charges against hundreds arrested during chaos that swept the city last summer. 

After 603 were arrested in Manhattan and the Bronx during the most intense days of looting last June, 295 of the cases have been dropped completely, according to NYPD data reported by WNBC-TV on Friday. 

Now Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr and Bronx DA Darcel D. Clark are facing tough questions about why hundreds walked free after the looting rampage caused an estimated tens of millions in damages. 

Business owner Jessica Betancourt, whose Bronx eyeglasses shop was destroyed last summer, vented her outrage at the situation.

‘Those numbers, to be honest with you, is disgusting,’ she told the NBC affiliate. ‘They could do it again because they know they won’t get the right punishment.’ read more

  1. All part of the plan. George Soros is very happy with his picks for District Attorneys. There was never going to be prosecution for setting police cars on fire or destroying businesses.
    But don’t you dare do a burnout on a multi colored crosswalk, they are now calling them monuments and want to make doing that a felony.
    Only from the mind of a liberal.

  3. Meanwhile, from fake news news network:
    FBI nears 500 arrests stemming from pro-Trump riot at U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6
    So far, 60 of the more than 440 people arrested by the FBI have been charged with assaulting police.
    riot that injured approximately 140 members of both the U.S. Capitol Police and Washington’s Metropolitan Police.
    The bureau also continues to offer a $100,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction
    The ongoing arrests come as Trump has looked to reassert his claims that the 2020 election was stolen from him

  4. Dynastic legacy white woke elites, in alliance with racist black marxists…That’s the minority which seeks to rule over the rest of us.

    Somebody here mentioned that African countries tend to be ruled with brute force by a minority tribe. I think that is true, and it is probably a holdover from colonial times, when dynastic white elites bestowed their favorites with power in order to control the rest.

    We appear to be following an anti-Constitutional, neocolonial model in the US now. And do not for one minute think your small town is safe from the colonizers.

  5. The concept of vigilantism DEMANDS that in order for legitimacy of the government monopoly on dispensation of justice to hold that govt make a good faith effort to seek justice on behalf of the aggrieved. W/o that it’s “The Law of the West” or might makes right I guess.

    Watch a few of the better old western movies and this dynamic is laid out in spades. The unfortunate message all too many take away is that a “white knight” is going to drift into town and save the day. More often it ended more like the Battle of Athens with the capable townsfolk taking charge and running the bastards out of town… or sending them off to a dirt nap.

  6. A few of you are familiar with this quote, it is in the signature line on my personal email:

    If a state, or nation, has laws it will not enforce for political reasons, it mocks both the law and politics, to say nothing of the cultural order.
    -Cal Thomas

  7. This is the way it is when every society goes totalitarian. They let their brownshirts riot and act as enforcers and they prosecute the hell out of their political enemies.
    And it is only going to get worse because there is no political party to stand in the way of it.
