I'm not sure about across the board, but many jurisdictions these days don't allow the woman to drop the case once the state presses charges for this exact reason.

Lol, if I had attorneys appointed for me I'd still be in prison.

Pretty sure my initial stance, which you quoted, was that yeah the da might trump up some robbery charges but no way the kid ends up w a felony. I never strayed from that./edit: and I'll add, imo, no way the kid gets approved for diversion.

I guess if I was in the kids position, with the video out there, I'm taking the plea all day long 100% of the time. He'd have to have some real bad advice from someone in his corner to not take the plea.

Ok Mr Super hero. You're so full of #### you actually believe the sperg coming out of your mouth. I'd probably glorify my life to if I was a mail man who also worked mall security.

That's all I was really trying to get at. This case would never even go before a jury. There would have been a plea to lesser charges, the da pads his conviction rate, the kid doesn't end up w a felony on his record. Let's remember the kid is 18, and doesn't have a criminal record, nobody was...

The victim handed him the cigars. Watch the video. He did not take or attempt to take anything by force or with threat of force. He asked the guy for the cigars and the guy handed them over. Through the glass. Only when he was leaving without paying and the shopkeep attempted to stop him...

They mentioned on CNN some Meat Market store the owner and family were standing outside with rifles and handguns to protect their own store.

You can stop trying to hook me into your fishing trip Greggity, it ain't happening. You're a tool.

Question, is there any legal recourse the shop owner can take over the looting that happened last night? The SWAT just stood across the street, never moved in and made 0 arrests....that's ####ed up on every level. If it was my shop I'd have some serious issues with the police right now.

There was no robbery. It would be a shoplifting charge. Misdemeanor theft.

Well now it looks like the DOJ told Feguson Chief not to release that video. And he did it anyway. What a ####tard.

Nobody said they aren't apprehending. I'm saying you are full of #### in general about the risk of your job, or that you are chasing and scuffling with criminals so many times as to need a career change. It ain't happening. You are apprehending people a lot. People who throw their arms up...

There's quite a stretch from numerous, paranoid about being stabbed/shot and once. I never said LP doesn't apprehend shoplifters, nor did I imply it. My stance is that you're full of #### about being assaulted numerous times to the point of being paranoid of being shot/stabbed...
