We need a trial first, no trial in three years also means dragging out the interpreter excuse while trying to build a case

The guy ould be guilty or just as possible they guy could be innocent too

But the process failed because the case was not presented properly

It is not Allah’s post that is a problem, it is his snide remard about tedious reporting and O’R doin is thing.

I don’t think it’s a snide remark at all. The tone may be pure AP, but the point is accurate. The media outlets focus on righteous outrage, but almost never really focus on the systemic procedural problems that led to this point, and if they do get that far, don’t provide any solution for fixing it.

“Time has become the enemy,” the judge said.” The guy was out on bail, what was the hurry? And what is the enemy? Time or a child rapist walking among us?

Very, very scary.

Enemy: child rapists, and the judges who let them go free.

Come on people! It’s ok to call them what they are; sick twisted monsters who prey on children and will never be anything else!!!
And the punishment should be equivalent for the crime. They should never be allowed to walk free again and the lowest pit in hell should be reserved for them.

“This is one of the most difficult decisions I’ve had to make in a long time,” Katherine D. Savage said from the bench Tuesday,

That’s BS. Just shows she is another liberal judge who has no clue what this does to the child, her family, and the other children this man will abuse, because he will do it again. People like this do not change.

And it wasn’t like he was sitting in jail those 3 years (which he should have been) , he was released on a paltry bail.

Judges don’t usually let child rape suspects walk out on cheap bail if there is any reasonable suspicion – of course this is lost in the shuffle of conviction without a trial as well in the media and now in the blogesphere look he maybe guilty but he gets his day in court.

Really?? Judges don’t usually let child rapists walk…. ? Do you pay attention at all to the news? It happens all the time!

And if O’Rielly pounds his desk and rants about it, let him. If he doesn’t, who else will? I wish more people carried on the way he does about child abuse.

The actions by that judge were absolutely insane. This is not justice, it’s liberalism gone mad.

Madness indeed. Where is the court’s concern for the victim? For God’s sake, this is a little 7 year old girl whose life has been trashed to satisfy the desires of a sick twisted pervert. This is unreal.

It is not Allah’s post that is a problem, it is his snide remard about tedious reporting and O’R doin is thing.

Oh gimme a break. This blog would be boring as hell without snide remarks.

Loretta E. Knight-Clerk of the Court responsible for finding the translator. A walking illustration of the efficiency of government.

Katherine D. Savage-judge who dismissed “Savage attributed no blame for the delay. She called the prosecutor’s efforts to help locate an interpreter “Herculean” and said the court system had learned from the case. “Time has become the enemy,” the judge said.” The guy was out on bail, what was the hurry? And what is the enemy? Time or a child rapist walking among us?

Very, very scary.

Witness the case of Tom Delay, had to step down, resign, still not on trial and not looking like he’s getting a chance to vindicate and have his day in court the clock is approaching a year now and actually has been harassed and investigated on these charges for THREE years.

Judges don’t usually let child rape suspects walk out on cheap bail if there is any reasonable suspicion – of course this is lost in the shuffle of conviction without a trial as well in the media and now in the blogesphere look he maybe guilty but he gets his day in court.

Heh. This is what makes this blog so great. When everyone gets caught up in the river, AP stands on the bank as says – look, it is a river sweeping everyone in.

I’d suggest people stop of AP as an extension of themselves, but think of him as a tour guide.

Just reading between the lines here…

but it looks like the Defense won the interpreter thing in the discovery phase, and then was ready…

Problem is that the Prosecution and Court were not ready to go to trial.

If they had gone to trial without the interpreter it would have given them grounds for overturning any guilty verdict…

Judges hands were actualy tied… Prosecution was not ready, and it looks like it was the PROCECUTION who failed on this one… multiple times… so the Constitutional arguement.

I feel sorry for the Judge on this one…

I guess I need a translator too because evidently “this is well and truly an outrage” doesn’t mean “this is well and truly an outrage” anymore. I call it an outrage, I find you a juicy detail from WaPo about how easy it was to find translators, I give you some legal background, and what’s your response? “I don’t like this post because it’s not angry enough!”

Allahpundit on July 23, 2007 at 8:52 AM

Allah, just admit you hate children and we can move on!

Nothing wrong with that. It offers a chance to discuss the role of the ‘gatekeepers’ in news distribution. Facts need context.

Its sad its predictable though isn’t it

Child rapists walking………

I have three daughters, this guy walked because the good people of Maryland didn’t take care of business

Allah

The yelling needs to be replaced by the quiet resolve to streamline the courts and get the resources in there to make sure fewer people walk

But its not as sexy an outrage issue as aim deficient border guards or illegal drug gangs in LA

People vote down bond issues for courts, let liberal governor run amok and make a mockery of our judicial process through irresponsible appointments

As Squawkboxnoise said the days of vote and forget are gone in the blogging age
