[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 2662306, member: 1132"] So long story short, black gang members carjack, kidnap and later murder a reserve police officer. DoJ takes over the case from VA (which has the death penalty) under the auspices of RICO and/or murder of a law enforcement officer statutes. Holder personally decides to remove the death penalty from the prosecution. Press release from the U.S. Attorneys Office back in May: [url]http://www.fbi.gov/richmond/press-releases/2014/eight-indicted-on-federal-racketeering-charges[/url] Announced last week by USA Heaphy, AG Holder took the death penalty off the table in the prosecutions. No explanation as to why is given, but locally some media outlets are trying to claim that it could be because death penalty cases are unpopular and as a result, more difficult to win. WTF??? The worst that could happen is the jury recommends LWOP, right? Stupidest. Excuse. Ever [url]http://wtvr.com/2014/11/16/suspects-in-kevin-quick-slaying-will-not-face-death-penalty/[/url] P.S. Anyone else remember the national media frenzy over this case the way they're covering Ferguson? Yeah, me neither... :( [/QUOTE]
