PHOENIX - Prosecutors say they will not retry George Kelly, an Arizona rancher charged with a fatal shooting near Mexico border.
Kelly, 75, was charged with second-degree murder in the January 30, 2023, shooting of Gabriel Cuen-Buitimea. The decision came a week after a mistrial was declared. A lone juror was reportedly the reason for the mistrial.
After the mistrial, the Santa Cruz County Attorney's Office had the option to retry Kelly - or to drop the case.

A loon who shot an innocent man dead because he was brainwashed to hate immigrants due to GOP media. And now he walks free.
Re: Immigration
Were you the lone juror that thought he was guilty?

Re: Immigration
Yeah, if all but one juror found him not guilty, I’m inclined to accept that judgment.
Would be nice if you showed such deference to juries in Trump cases, In2.
Re: Immigration
It would be hard in places where it's not possible to get a fair trial. I wish I could. NY and DC don't count when it comes to political trials.

Re: Immigration
Idk, is there a difference between a state that is 55-60% red and one that's district is 95% blue?

Re: Immigration
I'm sorry; I was wrong. I want to retract my previous post. I thought that all but one juror wanted to find him guilty, but one holdout let him walk free. If all jurors but one felt he was innocent, I find that compelling and feel like I should accept and abide by it.

The court system isn’t perfect. This man should count his blessings and know he almost went to jail for murder. Not everyone gets off with a get out of jail free card. The jurors were deadlocked and a mistrial was proclaimed. Prosecutors decided not to have another trial and the guy walks.
“Because of the unique circumstances and challenges surrounding this case, the Santa Cruz County Attorney’s Office has decided not to seek a retrial,” Deputy County Attorney Kimberly Hunley told Fink Monday.

In four years, you don’t have to vote again. We’ll have it fixed so good, you’re not gonna have to vote.
Re: Immigration
In a county that voted 78.46% for Biden, you think he's guilty, because 1 out of 12 jurors said he was? Technically, they were deadlocked, but it was just 1 holdout. If you just heard they were deadlocked, you would think it was something like half and half.Nodack wrote: ↑Wed May 01, 2024 9:32 amThe court system isn’t perfect.

This is coming through the border, so I guess this is part of the immigration problem.

Re: Immigration
My dear sweet mother has Fox News brain worms and believes all of this stuff. She is always telling me on the phone how the Dems have 11 million illegals voting for them in 2024. How? Who knows. She thinks the Dems passed a law making it legal for illegals to vote in the 2024 election and they'll all turn out to help Sleepy Joe steal another election. Sad.
Re: Immigration
How would that happen? How would an illegal migrant vote in a federal election?

Re: Immigration
I think her logic is that the evil Dems have passed a bunch of laws saying nobody has to show any kind of ID to vote (?), therefore even though it is technically not allowed for an illegal immigrant to vote, they can just show up and do it and they won't get caught. All of that isn't true, but that is what she has seen and heard and believes.
Re: Immigration
Hmm, I think you are right in a sense. It may be part of it, but not the whole thing. Certain things are allowed in states and could be much easier than others for this to happen. Is there a fool proof way to eliminate all voting fraud? I don't think that is possible, but there are ways to make it much harder, imo. You would have to think about this in a way to want to cheat the system.Mori Chu wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2024 9:13 amI think her logic is that the evil Dems have passed a bunch of laws saying nobody has to show any kind of ID to vote (?), therefore even though it is technically not allowed for an illegal immigrant to vote, they can just show up and do it and they won't get caught.
