We need to do something about our justice system because it has become one where criminals always have the advantage, since what is seen and proved is still not considered evidence. Give me a break.
After watching all the activist Judges trying to destroy Trump by violating our basic laws, it tells me Judges have too much power. We need to tweak our system to account for Judges who are activists, proven by their actions or inactions in court. My faith in our legal system is no more because I can clearly see how an innocent man goes to prison while the criminals walk. All IMO.
“Don’t expect a quick ruling about a trial for the alleged Charlie Kirk assassin.
A five-day preliminary hearing wrapped on Friday, and despite a mountain of evidence presented by prosecutors, Utah County Judge Tony Graf won’t decide until at least September, nearly a year after Kirk’s death, whether to put suspect Tyler Robinson on trial for aggravated murder.
Kirk, co-founder of Turning Point USA and a conservative influencer, was killed on Sept. 10 by a bullet fired from the rooftop of a building on the campus of Utah Valley University.
Prosecutors this past week presented surveillance video, DNA evidence and witness testimony from his former romantic partner that they say link Mr. Robinson to the killing.
Defense lawyers called witnesses and showed evidence they say call into question the accuracy of ballistic and DNA evidence that prosecutors say tie Mr. Robinson to the crime.
After days of testimony, the probable cause hearing is far from over in the Provo, Utah, court.
Judge Graf won’t rule on proceeding to a murder trial until he reads a round of written arguments that the defense and prosecution will submit later this summer.
Then it’s still not over.
Lawyers will present oral arguments to the judge on Sept. 1. After that, Judge Graf said he’ll make a decision.
“I think it’s absolutely unprecedented — and frankly outrageous — that this judge intends to wait until September to issue a ruling following what was merely a probable cause hearing,” criminal defense attorney Mark Eiglarsh, who is based in Florida, told The Washington Times. “In virtually every case, judges make that decision immediately from the bench or shortly thereafter. Delaying it for months is highly unusual.”
