I knew little about this story till I looked it up about 20 min ago. Is that twitter guy being objective? The attorney says Jordan has confessed to nothing about being the killer.
Jordan was released from prison in 2014, according to Jones' clemency petition. An attorney for Jordan, Billy Bock, told ABC News in September that "Chris Jordan maintains his position that his role in the death of Paul Howell was as an accomplice to Julius Jones. Mr. Jordan testified truthfully in the jury trial of Mr. Jones and denies 'confessing' to anyone."
I'm so blind that I couldn't find any of the reports that it was a cell phone.
Granted all I did was search Rittenhouse cell phone and didn't find anything.
It's pretty pathetic that this is the case that would cause anybody to think think our judicial system is becoming draconian. As far as injustices go, this is a nothing burger. He shot people and we had a trial to see if he was justified. Big fkn deal. God, do you guys even know what happens every day in the CJS? Innocent people go to prison all the time. We make criminals out of thin air by limiting basic freedoms. But bc Rittenhouse shot people and had to face a trial, we have a banana republic all of a sudden. You can't make this **** up.
the guys he shot are viewed as "selfless heroes"?
guess that's as nuts as the people who think KR was some sort of hero

Julius Jones is scheduled to be executed today and Oklahoma's governor has still not decided if he will commute the death sentence - CNN
Oh yay, a lecture on law from the former cop who didn’t know what felony murder was.Are you insane? People decline to prosecute all the time in domestic cases, robberies, rapes etc. this isn’t some new thing
Yeah but it's really tough to get a conviction without the victim. That's why the detectives assigned to cases like that need to be good with victims.Oh yay, a lecture on law from the former cop who didn’t know what felony murder was.
This post is basically false. Once the charges are brought, it’s not the victim’s call. There are situations where it can work out that way (which is why your post isn’t entirely false) but it’s not something they are entitled to and there are definitely ways for prosecutors to work through it.
Also, more importantly to this situation, they still prosecuted him for a charge against the same victim.
It depends on the other evidence, which is the salient point.Yeah but it's really tough to get a conviction without the victim. That's why the detectives assigned to cases like that need to be good with victims.
You can certainly pressure without the victim but a full conviction is very difficult.It depends on the other evidence, which is the salient point.
If you’ve got a rape kit with a DNA match and images of injuries, especially to the face, then you maintain the charge and leverage it. You don’t get a rape conviction but you can probably get a plea with jail time.
If you don’t have anything other than the withdrawn accusation, you leverage the guy’s desire to get out of jail and send him home on misdemeanor probation and disqualify him from owning firearms.
If you’re calling that guy a rapist then stfu about “Kyle Rittenhouse shouldn’t have even gone to the grand jury because there wasn’t enough evidence.” You’re just taking positions based on tribal politics at that point and don’t give a **** about the justice system.
I never called him a rapist nor have I said Rittenhouse shouldn't have gone to a GJ.
In regards to the guy that's being called a rapist, is this in reference to Blake?

It's not close to the same at all lol. Didn't Blake have a restraining order for the ordeal? Not pinning him as a rapist but they aren't on the same level at all. That's asinine, RT.I didn’t say you did, but that’s the genesis of this conversation.
Could be Blake, could also apply to a certain Supreme Court justice. The evidence is basically the same.

Kavanaughs accuser lacked any corroboration from her own named references, had zero recall to anything and didn't even confirm it was for sure Kavaunagh. That entire episode was an embarrassment to this country. That was a clear partisan attempt and it was gross. He got sent through and not a damn democrat cared about the Dr. after that.
Shot taking at people sending someone out in hopes to smear a nomination to spit in the face of every rape victim past present and future? Spare us your "iTz JuSt YeR pArTiSaN" on that.More tribal partisan flag waiving, as demonstrated by everything after the first sentence of your second paragraph, which is just gratuitous shot-taking that’s completely irrelevant to comparing the relative evidence.
Blake’s accuser lacks any corroboration as well, as I was just explaining.
