minervadoe Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 The Feds Get Creative and Sidestep Portland's District Attorney https://townhall.com/tipsheet/bethb...sidestep-portlands-district-attorney-n2575561 Multnomah County District Attorney Mike Schmidt said he wouldn't prosecute those involved in the Black Lives Matter "protests." Because of that, the feds sidestepped the local government. The U.S. Marshals came in and deputized Oregon State Police troopers. That means troopers have the ability to arrest someone for a federal crime and turn them over to federal prosecutors instead of state or local prosecutors. The significance of this charge is that rioters in Ore. can now be FEDERALLY charged for crimes against state officers. It was reported yesterday @ORStatePolice have been cross-deputized by the federal government. This bypasses @DAMikeSchmidt's catch & release policy. #antifa https://t.co/CXSVMM23py — Andy Ngô (@MrAndyNgo) September 2, 2020 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They really don't have parole. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fog Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 This is pretty big, doubt the media is going to cover this honestly. My understanding is that it follows the framework of swearing in LE as U.S. Marshals to work on indian reservations. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minervadoe Posted September 18, 2020 Author Share Posted September 18, 2020 I wonder if they can deputize a state's National Guard. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Reserve Members are Private Citizens outside of the Required Guard Time, so that's a Great Idea. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
