DC: The New Mexico judge overseeing the case against five alleged Muslim extremists essentially accused prosecutors of discriminating against Muslims in her Monday court order granting bail to the defendants.
The defendants, Siraj Wahhaj, Hujrah Wahhaj, Jany Leveille, Subhannah Wahhaj, and Lucas Morten, are accused of training children to conduct school shootings. All were granted release on a $20,000 “signature bond” by Judge Sarah Backus on Monday, allowing them to avoid paying any money unless they violate their release terms.
In coming to her decision, Judge Backus wrote that the State of New Mexico “apparently expected the court to take the individuals’ faith into account” in determining whether or not the defendants were a danger to the community.
“The defendants are apparently of the Muslim faith,” read the order. “The Court was asked by the State to make a finding of dangerousness and a finding of no conditions of release could ensure the safety of the community. The State apparently expected the court to take the individuals’ faith into account in making such a determination. The Court has never been asked to take any other person’s faith into account in making a determination of dangerousness. The Court is not aware of any law that allows the Court to take a person’s faith into consideration in making a dangerousness determination.”
“The state alleges there was a big plan afoot but the state has not shown to my satisfaction by clear and convincing evidence what in fact that plan was,” Backus said Monday. MORE
Evidence be damned, eh judge?
Ok. When these people kill a bunch of innocent Americans in a terrorist attack you need to stand trial with them as an accessory to murder and terrorism.
They were squatters so
they can take up and leave
at any time.The muz got compounds
in NY & TX.I like the stacked tires
for a wind break.
To a leftist, not giving special, favorable treatment to their protected groups and races (i.e., treating everyone equally– a.k.a. “justice”), is actually discriminating against those groups and races. Leftists are not smart enough to see the irony in that.
Unbefuckinglievable ! So by this idiot judge’s “logic”, Cops could never arrest and prosecute anyone of a protected class because it would be “biased”. Holy shit!
Edit: Sorry PBunyon, I missed your post.
How come the Anti-muslim Backlash never comes as predicted, but the Pro-muslim frontlash is as regular as clockwork?
I was under the impression that these muslim terrorists were caught a few days ago, hardly enough time for the prosecutors to start the paperwork, much less the muslim-railroading. Has this compound been under investigation for far longer than the public was led to believe? Is there an ongoing hidden battle between the judge and prosecutor which we are not privy to? None of this makes any sense under the current MSM narrative.
It’s ok Tony R, I do that a lot too.
Governor Martinez, who appointed Backus is not happy with the ruling on bail (https://tinyurl.com/ybwur4el). Judge claims she has received death threats. I can’t imagine why……
Sometimes you don’t even have to read the story to see that the judge was a dumb cunt. It is stories like this that lead me to question the 19th Amendment as a good thing.
The real tragedy will be that this insufferable bint is highly unlikely to be among those inevitably killed by the musloids she “freed”. But maybe that’s part of the “plan”…
They don’t have to pay any money unles the defendants violate the terms of the agreement.
So when does the court collect the money?
dangerousness ???????
Meanwhile, twits just banned Bosch’s backup account.
Overall, this really won’t end well.
Release them to where, the compound? … they’re already gone
WAIT… WAIT… WAIT! So I can move to New Mexico, kill my undesirable son, declare myself a… um… Satanist, train kids to kill… uh… Firemen (because they put out fires… Hell, Hello!) and Prosecutors doing their job detailing the facts of the case to this judge will focus on my religiously held beliefs & intent, decide I can “WALK” because they focused on my religious beliefs? Honey, pack my bags! (Shorts & T-shirts) And pack some warmer clothes for my flight to northern States after free BAIL! West Virginia, can you teach New Mexico about impeaching judges?
