LEFT WING LOONS Title: Boston Judge refused to dismiss charges against Antifa, jailed lawyer who argued with him Tuesday, half of the arrestees were brought before Boston Judge Richard Sinnott. DA Rachel Rollins asked Sinnott to drop charges against 9 people who were arrested Saturday on lesser charges, i.e. resisting arrest and disorderly conduct. Rollins, who is considered a progressive DA, has a standing commitment not to prosecute a list of 15 crimes which include disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. She wanted these counter-protesters to walk. But Judge Sinnott only agreed to drop charges against two of the nine. Thats very unusual because a judge generally doesnt decide who will get prosecuted. Tuesday evening DA Rollins published a statement on Facebook criticizing Judge Sinnotts refusal to dismiss the cases: A defense attorney named Susan Church who was representing some of the defendants tweeted her own reaction to Judge Sinnotts refusal to dismiss: The Judge has zero authority to do that. Zilch. A severe overstep. Although the court can deny a dismissal arguably (very thin argument) they cannot for a nol prosse. Trumps screw the law attitude seeping down to district court judges I see. Church, who previously represented Occupy Boston, tried to argue this same point with the judge in person and wound up in handcuffs: Sinnott, who declined requests from prosecutors to dismiss some of the cases the day before, pushed back against Church when she spoke out about statutes regarding case dismissals. This is the only warning youre going to get. Do not try to talk over me, do not try to turn this into theater, Sinnott said before ordering Church to be held in contempt. Heres Church discussing what happened after she was released: Stefan Geller (@StefanGeller) September 4, 2019 So the progressive DA, the ACLU, and the progressive defense attorney are all unhappy with Judge Sinnott. The Massachusetts Association of Defense Attorneys has called for an investigation of the judge and DA Rollins has asked the states Supreme Court to overrule him. Based on what Im reading, that seems likely to happen. Finally, I have to point out that when writing about this story, a Boston Globe columnist managed to include this idiotic defense of Antifa: It never ceases to amaze me that left-leaning journos support a group whose stated mission is political violence carried out behind masks to escape accountability. Its not like any of this is a secret. Just a few days ago the Boston Herald quoted an Antifa member who said, Were covered in black so when we attack these guys we cant be prosecuted. So even when, as in this case, these goons are attacking and injuring the citys police, there are still numbskulls like this Globe columnist or CNNs Don Lemon who are eager to defend them. And speaking of the police, the Police union was the only group who seemed happy with Judge Sinnotts stand against giving Antifa a pass: Poster Comment: A real hanging judge in Boston, sick of Antifa's antics. It won't last but it's fun to watch. And don't try reading the law to the judge if he's already hostile you.
