What I think is happening is a deliberate destruction of the case so it can be retried as a civil rights case in a federal court.

I wish I could say that you’re mistaken... but I can’t.

You may be on to something.

You know the pimp Holder is chomping at the bit on this for a civil rights case.

It looks to me like they played the classic liberal game of going for a 10 when they really only wanted a 6. So when they get 6, the other side isn’t all worked up over it saying, “at least they didn’t get 10. We dodged a bullet there.”

I hope they’re just inept and he goes free.

I’m thinking along similar lines.

This went so badly for them that they are pulling out all the stops to keep this from going to the jury at all.
