#Prosecutor

1 post1 participant0 posts today

The #Prosecutor's Office in #Russia has requested 18 years of strict #prison regime for Alexander #Skobov.

Do you know who Skobov is? A 68-year-old history teacher.

Do you know what he was accused of?

1. Opposing the #war with #Ukraine.
2. Calling Russia a regime of #murderers.
3. Calling Russia an #aggressor.
4. Criticizing #Putin.

In other words, 18 years for the #truth.

Remember the #Republican outrage over the #affair between #Georgia #DistrictAttorney and #Prosecutor in the #2020 #ElectionInterference case?

Yeah, they'll sweep this under the rug.

Death Row Case Offers Window Into Prosecutors' Gender Bias
As she stood trial for orchestrating her estranged husband's 2001 murder, Brenda Andrew faced an uphill battle convincing an Oklahoma jury of her innocence. The evidence was stacked against her, but perhaps the most powerful weapon in the prosecutors' arsenal wasn't the evidence itself — it was their ability to portray her as a deviant, unfaithful woman who deserved to be executed.

People, even #MAGA people, have to ask why #Trump wants to dismiss charges without prejudice* in this high profile #corruption case against a #Democrat running a #sanctuarycity & why a #prosecutor who was awarded two bronze stars for #MilitaryService & served as a #lawclerk for #Republican #ChiefJusticeJohnRoberts is willing to loose their job trying to continue the #prosecution.

*a dismissal without prejudice means the charges can be filed without invoking #doublejeopardy.

#FredThiel shared details of a #blockchain initiative his company had launched earlier that day w/ #MikeJohnson, an effort designed to symbolize the intersection of #crypto & #US #politics.

“We minted a block on the blockchain with a portrait of President Trump, created entirely from transactions,” Thiel said.

#TracyHoyosLópez, a former California #prosecutor & one of the people credited w/ turning #Trump pro-#bitcoin, was also at the event.
