In the Purge movies, any and all crime is made legal for a 12-hour period. That would be an improvement on New York, where crime is practically legal all the time — so long as the criminals qualify as juvenile:

The New York teen driver accused of fatally crashing his BMW into a police sergeant’s car will be prosecuted in juvenile court, authorities said Thursday.

The unidentified Yonkers boy was unlicensed when he plowed his out-of-control sports car into the police vehicle of Yonkers Detective Sgt. Frank Gualdino, cops said.

He drove the car into oncoming traffic. Kids these days.

His case was moved to family court in Westchester County on Wednesday due to a state law passed in 2017 that raised the age of criminal responsibility to 18.

That’s what we need. Less criminal responsibility. That way, we can reduce incarceration rates.

Assistant District Attorney Nadine Nagler said in court Wednesday that while the teen’s conduct was “egregious,” prosecutors could not provide enough factors to keep the case in criminal court, The Journal News reported.

The teen was 16 at the time of the crash.

By the time he is 20, he will be back behind the wheel. Frank Gualdino will still be dead though.

Peter Cahill, the leftist judge discussed below who presided over Derek Chauvin’s show trial, has something to be extra thankful for this holiday weekend. The innocent man he threw to the mob has predictably been stabbed in prison, requiring “lifesaving measures”:

The Bureau of Prisons confirmed that a man was attacked around 12:30pm on Friday, inside the Federal Correctional Institution in Tucson – a medium-security prison that has been plagued by security lapses and staffing shortages. …

Keith Ellison, the attorney general of Minnesota – who oversaw Chauvin’s prosecution – told the Star Tribune on Friday night that he was notified that Chauvin had been stabbed but survived, and was in stable condition.

Considering that Chauvin’s only crime was to have been a white police officer, his survival must have been bad news for Ellison, a black nationalist, alumnus of the rabidly anti-white Nation of Islam, and open supporter of violently anti-police Antifa. He typifies the kind of people who run liberal Minnesota, which is why Chauvin was in prison instead of defending civilization from the savages he was handed over to with a giant bullseye painted on his back.

As was documented in the recently released The Fall of Minneapolis (which readers are strongly encouraged to watch for free), Cahill denied Chauvin his Sixth Amendment right to a fair trial before an impartial jury. Conspiring to deny an American his constitutional rights is a serious crime; if death results, it warrants capital punishment. It is Cahill who belongs in prison, not Chauvin — who did nothing wrong, media/Democrat lies notwithstanding.

On tips from Varla, Ed McAninch, and ABC of the ANC.

The deification of career criminal George Floyd and the immolation of police officer Derek Chauvin marked various milestones in America’s decline, pushing to grotesque extremes the glorification of lowlife by the liberal establishment, hatred of local law enforcement, the willingness of the media and Democrat Party to push a destructive narrative they know to be false, and the collapse of our justice system into mob rule, so that a verdict can be determined not by evidence but by political considerations and to placate rioters. Also worth noting is an example of liberal hypocrisy so massive as to warp time and space.

No one knows that Derek Chauvin is an innocent man better than Peter Cahill, the leftist judge who presided over his show trial. Cahill knew the jury was biased in favor of the Black Lives Matter mob, but denied Chauvin his constitutional right to a fair trial before an impartial jury.

Cahill must have been aware that the maximal restraint technique used by Chauvin to restrain the much larger, drug-crazed Floyd was by the book; all Minneapolis police officers had been trained in it, despite perjury to the contrary by Chief of Police Medaria Arradondo, a political tool without shame or honor.

This information was deliberately kept from the jury by Cahill, reducing the proceedings to a kangaroo court. He also kept from the jury information regarding misdeeds by EMS that might have prevented Floyd’s resuscitation. Nor would he allow the jury to be informed about Floyd’s multiple drug arrests.

Then, as he inflicted on the innocent Chauvin a sadistically harsh sentence, Cahill proclaimed:

“This is based on your abuse of a position of trust and authority and also the particular cruelty shown to George Floyd.”

Too bad it isn’t a crime to abuse a position of trust and authority. We could lock up Cahill before he cruelly sacrifices more innocent men to his sick ideology.

If you want to know the truth about the George Floyd spectacle, watch The Fall of Minneapolis for free at the soonest opportunity. Keep your jaw supported when you get to the part about Cahill; it might drop hard enough to cause dislocation.

Cahill also abused his position of trust and authority by exhibiting the same cruel vindictiveness toward Tou Thao, an officer who never touched George Floyd but was thrown in prison for doing his job by holding the crowd back.

The admirable Thao quoted Scripture rather than kowtowing to Cahill’s ideology. This enraged the tyrannical judge, who then threw the book at him:

It is not tolerable for decent people to be ruled by the likes of Peter Cahill and the other ringmasters of the George Floyd circus (i.e., Arradondo, Jacob Frey, Keith Ellison, Tim Walz, the rest of the Democrat Party, and the liberal media that keeps it in power).

Evidently bail reform did not subject law-abiding citizens to a sufficiently stratospheric level of preventable violence, so Kathy Hochul and the rest of New York’s liberal rulers will now inflict the Clean Slate Act:

Hochul is expected to sign the Clean Slate Act on Thursday, which will automatically seal records after three years for anyone who committed a misdemeanor and after eight years for anyone who committed a felony (except Class A felonies) and is not a registered sex offender.

If you killed someone and accepted a plea deal or were convicted of manslaughter, you get a “clean slate.”

If you committed a rape alongside armed robbery and the rape wasn’t prosecuted to spare the victim (it especially happens with child victims), you get a “clean slate.”

A few people actually benefit from liberal rule — like Kim Crawford:

Crawford beat her 5-year-old because he broke the TV and then watched him suffer and die slowly for five days instead of getting him help so she did not get in trouble.

She got a manslaughter plea deal.

Clean slate for Crawford. She won’t be the only beneficiary:

Also getting a clean slate is a man who lured a cat in so he could punt it like a football — and taunted animal-rights supporters when he left the courtroom…

These two evil people and the many more like them will now be able to work around your home, your pets and your children without you or their employer ever knowing what they are capable of.

Unless they find out the hard way.

Local media supports the Clean Slate Act because its beneficiaries will tend to belong to the favored racial group that is most likely to have criminal records, like the examples given above:

Removing barriers to opportunities for formerly incarcerated New Yorkers is a matter of racial justice.

Meanwhile, Hochul squawks that New York needs to grow its own Stasi to monitor people’s opinions because she cares so much about public safety.

They say no good deed goes unpunished. With progressives ascendant, it is equally true that no evil deed goes unrewarded.

It would be hard to imagine an eviler deed than the rape of Central Park jogger Trisha Meili, who was beaten so severely that she lost 80% of her blood and went into a coma.

Among those convicted of the horrific crime was a thug named Yusef Salaam. Alarmingly, the conviction was vacated on dubious grounds. Despite having confessed along with the rest of the Central Park 5, the evidently guilty Salaam was not only unleashed on the public but handed a massive settlement; he and the rest of his wolf pack were awarded $41 million of the wealth people like Trisha Meili work to create.

Because Meili is white and her attackers sacred BIPOCs, liberals deified the wolf pack. Salaam even received a Lifetime Achievement Award from Barack Obama.

For the cherry on top, Salaam ran for City Council, campaigning in part on “safe streets.”

Given what moonbattery has reduced New York to, no one will be surprised to hear that Salaam was actually elected. He may well look smug.

Presenting Yusef Salaam’s résumé, which ought to take him at least to Gracie Mansion if not farther as he glides along the blood red carpet of Racial Justice:

One group actually benefits from liberal rule — namely, sexually perverted felons.

In California,

Taxpayers in California have been rolling out the red carpet for prison inmates by splashing out on expensive cosmetic surgeries, that were once exclusive to Hollywood elites, for criminals.

Since 2017, the state has blown $4 million in tax dollars on transgender treatments such as sex changes, cosmetic surgery, and more for prisoners.

California residents even paid for death row prisoners to have expensive transgender surgeries.

The benefits of being a criminal in California include having artificial breasts and vaginas installed at taxpayer expense. The libs running the Land of Fruits and Nuts can find no better use for other people’s money.

No expense is spared when it comes to pandering to felonious perverts:

Two men in the prison system got what were described as “facial feminization surgeries,” totaling $184,141.

Laser hair removal was also given to 69 male inmates, costing $224,000.

Work hard, law-abiding citizens. Someone has to pay for this as the number of transgender convicts shoots through the stratosphere. In California, it has gone from 131 in 2014 to 1,847 this year — and for good reason:

Male inmates who claim to be “female” are often placed in women’s prisons, despite the nature of their crimes.

Meanwhile, up the Left Coast,

The morally depraved are calling the shots. Society’s sickest benefit from this state of affairs, even if no one else does.

As part of a campaign to escalate urban violence and politically destabilize the country, in hopes of creating a situation that will enable gun confiscation followed by authoritarian rule, George Soros has spent massive amounts of money helping into office pro-criminal district attorneys throughout the country. Examples include Alvin Bragg (New York), George Gascon (Los Angeles), Kim Foxx (Chicago), Kim Ogg (Houston), Larry Krasner (Philadelphia), Chesa Boudin (San Francisco), Kim Gardner (St Louis), Marilyn Mosby (Baltimore), Monique Worrell (central Florida), Jason Williams (New Orleans) — and Pamela Price of Oakland, who on Friday afternoon had her work laptop stolen from her car during a smash-and-grab robbery outside a “family justice center.”

Price foolishly tried calling the police, who tend not to exert themselves in places like Oakland because they know the DA won’t prosecute anyway.

ABC7 reported her bodyguard parked the $90,000 county Tahoe SUV just outside the Family Justice Center and came back to find the windows smashed.

Imagine how much worse life in Oakland is for those who don’t have presumably armed bodyguards.

A source from the Oakland Police Department reported that Price waited an hour for authorities to arrive before she decided to file a report online.

At least the culprits might get prosecuted, in the unlikely event they are apprehended.

Price had some help in her rise to power, as a story from last August reminds us:

Alameda County district attorney Pamela Price, who took $130,000 from [George] Soros for her failed 2018 bid, secured the position for her boyfriend Antwon Cloird, the San Jose Mercury News reported Sunday. Cloird joined Price’s office as a “senior program specialist” in 2023, with a $115,502 per year salary. Price brought him onto her team without disclosing their relationship, although it is an “open secret” in the office, according to the report.

Since becoming district attorney in 2022, Price has presided over a massive crime surge in Oakland…

Crime in Oakland has been skyrocketing across the board. Business owners recently held a strike to protest rising crime and inadequate protection. Lifelong residents have been escaping. Even the Oakland NAACP is fed up:

The Black advocacy group wrote a letter that was aimed directly at Price.

‘Failed leadership, including the movement to defund the police, our District Attorney’s unwillingness to charge and prosecute people who murder and commit life-threatening serious crimes, and the proliferation of anti-police rhetoric have created a heyday for Oakland criminals,’ the letter said.

‘If there are no consequences for committing crime in Oakland, crime will continue to soar.’

That’s the point of installing tools like Price, who has pushed for less prison time even for murderers. She responded to the NAACP with disappointment that “a great African-American organization would take a false narrative on such an important matter.”

Devout liberals know there is only one True Narrative, according to which criminals are the good guys because racism.

In other Oakland crime news,

Less than 24 hours after launching, Oakland Police Department has ended the social media crime reporting program.

The announcement went out Friday night, soon after Price lost her laptop.

Witnesses to car break-ins should call 9-1-1 instead of sending messages to those deactivated accounts.

No reason was given for the sudden termination.

If you don’t want to be a crime victim, stay out of towns where George Soros backed the DA.

The liberal media and the Democrat pols it installs in power whipped up hundreds of politically advantageous race riots based on the narrative that black career criminal George Floyd was “murdered” by white police officer Derek Chauvin. Here is more confirmation that this narrative is a lie:

Tucker Carlson just published a new episode of his show in which he reviews the death of George Floyd on Memorial Day 2020, for which former Minneapolis PD officer Derek Chauvin was convicted of murder and sentenced to forty years in prison. A recent lawsuit, incidental to Floyd and Chauvin, unveiled sworn deposition excerpts from a conversation with County Medical Examiner Andrew Baker, indicating that Floyd’s passing was not due to asphyxiation or strangulation. Instead, factors including drug use and a fatal concentration of fentanyl were significant contributors.

Click here to see the toxicology report. It confirms that Floyd took more than enough fentanyl to kill him.

Chauvin is a political prisoner who is rotting in a cage because of his race. His immolation has served its purpose for Democrats. Can we please let him out now?

Even in a country run by moonbats, justice is sometimes served. From New Orleans:

[Jason] Williams was walking his 78-year-old mother to his car when two suspects approached the pair, pointed a gun at them and demanded the DA’s car, according to WVUE. The suspects then jumped into the car and drove off before abandoning the vehicle in an undisclosed location and carjacking a young woman in the area 30 minutes later, the NOPD confirmed.

Sounds like a typical day in a typical diverse Democrat-run city. This increasingly ordinary event makes the news because Williams is the district attorney. He was put in office to enable the criminals who robbed him.

The DA was elected in 2020 after George Soros donated $220,000 to the Louisiana Justice and Public Safety PAC to run campaigns against Williams’ opponent, according to the Capital Research Center. Williams campaigned on a platform of social justice reform, promising to find “alternatives to incarceration” for some criminals and to reform the “ineffective and unfair money bail system,” according to his campaign website.

Soros has used his ill-gotten $billions to install pro-criminal DAs throughout the country, including Alvin Bragg (New York) George Gascon (Los Angeles), Kim Foxx (Chicago), Kim Ogg (Houston), Larry Krasner (Philadelphia), Chesa Boudin (San Francisco), Kim Gardner (St Louis), Marilyn Mosby (Baltimore), and Monique Worrell (central Florida). The apparent objective is to create enough violence to set the stage for gun confiscation, without which the leftist agenda cannot proceed much further due to the public resistance it would engender.

Before the Long March Through the Institutions got ahold of DA’s offices, their purpose was to prosecute criminals. Williams has a different objective. He proclaims that “we must root out all vestiges of white supremacy in our systems and institutions.”

He has attempted to advance this agenda by letting criminals run amok:

Williams declined to prosecute 65% of all criminal cases in New Orleans in 2021, but slowly began to prosecute more cases as crime in the city rose, according to data from the New Orleans government’s office. The DA still continues to prosecute, on average, only 44% of the criminals who have been charged by police.

Sometimes you have to turn the gas down slightly or the frog jumps out of the pot.

New Orleans was named the “murder capital of the United States” in 2022, and violent crime was the leading cause of death for children in the city that same year. Auto thefts in the city have increased 104% since 2022, and total crime has increased 8% since the start of the year, police data showed.

Elections have consequences, especially when the results are bought and paid for by George Soros.

Due to ethnocentrism and Christofascism, we once frowned on the quaint practice of cannibalism, which was celebrated by sacred indigenous peoples throughout the world until colonialism spoiled the fun. But we are more enlightened now. From deep blue Connecticut:

Tyree Smith … was found not guilty of murder by reason of insanity following a trial in July 2013 and ordered committed to a state psychiatric hospital for 60 years.

As we have known at least since John Hinckley exploited it to escape justice after shooting Ronald Reagan, the insanity defense is even more insane than the maniacs it benefits.

[T]his week, the state Psychiatric Security Review Board, ruled that Smith, after spending 10 years in the state’s most secure psychiatric hospital, is ready to be transitioned into the community. He has since been released…

The board says Smith “has continued to demonstrate clinical stability.” So we’ll let bygones be bygones regarding homicide and cannibalism.

The defense’s case rested mainly on the testimony of Yale University psychiatrist Dr. Reena Kapoor, who said at the time Smith retained his lust for human flesh after his arrest, even offering to eat her.

That’s how you get away with killing a guy with an ax and eating his brain and eyeballs. Tell a psychiatrist you want to do the same to her.

Kapoor claimed Smith suffered from psychotic incidents since childhood and heard voices that told him to kill people. She said the voices ordered Smith to eat the victim’s brain so they would get a better understanding of human behavior and the eyes so that they could see into the “spirit realm.”

Just the kind of guy the liberal establishment would turn out onto the streets. Ideally, he’ll get hold of a gun and head for the nearest grade school; then the media can exploit the incident to attack the Second Amendment.

Tyree Smith is on the right side of history, assuming liberals prevail.

If you want more of something, you subsidize it — or in the case of murdering police officers, punish it as mildly as the public will tolerate. As Chicago succumbs to the Democrat Death Spiral, the public will tolerate even this:

A Chicago man who was charged over the murder of police officer Ella French has been offered a plea deal that will see him jailed for just seven years.

That is, 7 years maximum. The system is run by sympathetic progressives. Eric Morgan will be out much sooner, possibly as soon as people stop paying attention.

French, 29, was shot dead in the West Englewood neighborhood on August 7, 2021 during a routine traffic and cop Carlos Yanez was severely wounded but survived his injuries.

Morgan is racially correct. In contrast, French was white. Thus the extra soft kid gloves.

Morgan was accused of handling the murder weapon allegedly used by his brother Emonte and was charged with aggravated unlawful use of a weapon, unlawful use of a weapon by a felon, and obstruction of justice.

Eric Morgan was on probation at the time he participated in the murder. Not that it matters in Chicago.

The moonbats in charge have spat on Ella French’s grave before. Readers may recall that they suspended her after she had been murdered over technicalities in a separate incident with racial implications. Everything a white police officer does in a place like Chicago has racial implications.

The liberal establishment tolerates cop killing because it is consistent with woke orthodoxy. Why Americans tolerate liberal rule is harder to explain.

Sex offenders have a friend in the liberal establishment. This is especially true in deep blue states where social engineers have no significant resistance — like Washington:

Washington’s Sex Offender Policy Board is working with the state’s Sentencing Guideline Commission in an attempt to roll back restrictions and sentence guidelines for sex offenders…

This is on the heels of community blowback from Washington Democrats including Governor Jay Inslee and Attorney General Bob Ferguson, releasing level 3 sex offenders, those deemed the “worst of the worst” and most likely to re-offend from high-security facilities to halfway houses in unsuspecting neighborhoods.

Additionally, at the end of the last legislative session, Democrat Governor Jay Inslee line-item vetoed a provision that would have informed neighbors if such an individual was to be placed in their community.

In 2020, Jay Inslee ran for president as a single-issue candidate hyping the global warming hoax. Looks like he’s branching out.

As always with progressives’ sexual agenda, children are in the crosshairs:

A draft of the recommendations for the Model Penal Code obtained by The Post Millennial from a Sept. 21 meeting reveals that the entities are claiming that “those convicted of a sex offense have some of the lowest recidivism rates compared to individuals convicted of a non-sex offense” adding “This is also true for individuals convicted of sex offenses against children.” The document did not cite the pertinent data.

This is likely because the pertinent data has not yet been fabricated. But it will be, just as it has been in support of other liberal causes like the fictional climate emergency and the transsexualization of children.

Brad Meryhew is the chair of the committee and a defense attorney who represents people who have been charged with sex crimes.

Under Democrat rule, criminals and their representatives are in charge.

Our ruling class is morally degenerate to the point of criminality, making a road rage incident that happened amid stopped traffic in Tampa on Tuesday emblematic. Police say Patrick Scruggs bashed through a car window to stab a man repeatedly:

Two Good Samaritans had also stopped and evidently startled him awake. Authorities say the eventual victim drove forward, hit the Good Samaritan’s car, then drove into Scruggs’ path.

Scruggs allegedly responded knife in hand, inflicting serious injuries on the guy in the car and menacing the good Samaritans.

Scruggs’s previous claim to fame was working for 10 years as a federal prosecutor.

He just left that job for private practice, but while he served the US attorney’s office in Tampa, he helped on high-profile cases, including that of Adam Johnson, who stole the lectern from Nancy Pelosi’s office during the capitol insurrection [sic].

The good news is that Scruggs has come to believe in due process:

O. J. Simpson was ahead of his time. Even now, it is not quite legal for black thugs to murder whites. But it’s getting there:

Jurors on Monday handed up their verdicts in the involuntary manslaughter trial of two brothers for a fight that ended in the death of 17-year-old Ethan Liming.

When blacks beat up whites, the liberal establishment calls it a “fight” — even in murder cases.

Deshawn and Tyler Stafford were acquitted of involuntary manslaughter charges. Deshawn was found guilty of felony aggravated assault as well as a misdemeanor count of assault. Tyler was also found guilty on a misdemeanor count of assault.

Deshawn could face up to 2 and a half years. For beating someone to death right out in public. The Liberalese term for this is “social justice.”

The murder was precipitated by harmless playfulness:

In June of last year, the brothers were playing basketball with friends when Liming and three of his friends drove up and started firing gel guns at them as a prank.

No one shoots gel guns at The Oppressed.

Gateway Pundit offers a less sanguine perspective than the liberal media:

According to reports, Ethan Liming, whose father is a pastor, tried to calm the situation in the parking lot when he got jumped and hit in the head from behind. The suspects broke his neck.

We learned from the police report that the suspects took Liming’s car and prevented his friends from driving him to the hospital. …

It was later reported that the attackers broke Liming’s neck and Ethan Liming had a shoe print on his chest when he died.

Reverse the races and the killers would get the death penalty.

Jesus Ayala, one of the teens who murdered retired police chief Andreas Probst for laughs, said he figured he would only get a “slap on the wrist.” He told cops he would be out in 30 days. Probst might still be alive if he had not been given this impression.
