ANTIFA has friends in high places.
After judges in Boston refused to drop charges for ANTIFA thugs who allegedly attacked police officers after the Straight Pride Parade this past weekend, Suffolk County District Attorney Rachael Rollins has submitted an emergency petition to the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court to protect the domestic terrorists.
Rollins made a statement against Judge Richard Sinnott after he refused to free an ANTIFA defendant and locked up their attorney Susan Church for contempt of court when she made a scene on behalf of her client.
“The actions of Judge Richard Sinnott are unprecedented and outrageous,” Rollins said in a statement on Wednesday night. “His insistence on arraigning individuals when my office has used its discretion to decline a case is an unconstitutional abuse of his power and serves neither the interests of justice nor public safety.”
“The power to pursue prosecution falls exclusively on the executive branch, not the judiciary. The judge overstepped his authority here, and only an action of our state’s highest court can correct this injustice. My petition is a call for order to be returned to our courts, to ensure the fair administration of justice, and to restore the public’s trust in the integrity of our legal system. The people of Suffolk County elected me to do exactly what I am doing,” she added.
She maintains that the judge is abridging the constitutional rights of the alleged ANTIFA domestic terrorists who attempted to impede a lawful march from taking place.
“By compelling arraignment in every case, the judge punished the exercise of individuals’ First Amendment right to protest,” Rollins said in a statement released on Tuesday.
“For those people now tangled in the criminal justice system for exercising their right to free speech — many of whom had no prior criminal record — I will use the legal process to remedy the judge’s overstepping of his role,” she added.
After her election as District Attorney last November, Rollins vowed to abdicate the rule of law and no longer prosecute crimes such as theft, trespass, possession of illicit substances, and a dozen other supposedly non-violent offenses.
Rollins apparently hopes to turn Boston into a Portland-esque anarchist hellscape, where ANTIFA are given license to commit acts of terror on the streets with impunity.
This is how the streets of Boston will look before long if the extreme leftist Rollins has her way, and she is successfully able to abuse her power to shield ANTIFA terrorists from justice.
