That's gotta win the award for scaremongering quote.

The silver lining is that those individuals who once avoided the courts to evade justice, are now very willing to see a judge ASAP.

He got out of jail using the correct judicial mechanism: get a judge to issue an order to release him.

But they took more than two weeks to even ask a judge for that, and now they are suing for the "trauma" that extended time has caused.

Hahahaha. Can’t victim blame you. Sound like the kind of guy who forgives his wife for fucking her new bf in their brand new bed.

Yes. Extrajudicial kidnapping sounds about right to me.

Arresting officer should go behind bars for life without parole.

Well, at least you're going full mask-off and not pretending to speak for progressives this time.

There’s nothing progressive about this.

Demanding that the NYPD should be making determinations about someone’s bail status or ignoring court orders?

It’s totally backwards.

Edit: to state the obvious, there are clearly broken things that need to be fixed in how those cases are handled.

It’s crazy how you always somehow arrive at the conclusion that Due Process is something anti-progressive. It’s clear you don’t have any idea what progressives stand for. So I’m asking you respectfully once again to stop purporting to speak for progressivism.

I'll these cases happened towards the end of De Blasio's administration, who has at best perpetuated and at worst made the jail situations worse. As I've learned from previous threads, it's pointless to argue with someone who believes De Blasio is a progressive hero of any kind.
