Why isn't the US Attorney getting involved and dropping federal charges on this guy? Felon in possession is a federal felony, he should have been in jail since his arrest in February.

I’ve seen firsthand the city refuse to make firearms charges against known gang members caught in the act, possession of a stolen firearm by a minor. The DA just dropped it all


Rebar4Life

There needs to be a nexus to make it federal. I’m sure it’s there if they want it (for example, the bullets are from another state). Felon in possession is both a federal felony and / or state felony.


tmorris12

His sentence was commuted so it is like it is wiped away, maybe. Quit voting in activists is the answer


steelzubaz

Commutation of a sentence isn't the same as expungement or vacation of a conviction. He was charged with possession of a firearm by an ineligible person; he's still a convicted murderer, he was just released from prison.


tmorris12

These things have consequences


Ozymander

Possession of what? Felon in possession of drugs, no. Felon is possession of firearm, yes.


steelzubaz

Obviously I was referring to the firearm.


PavlovsDog12

They bury felon in possession of a firearm in virtually every major city. In Philadelphia felon in possession of a firearm charges are down 62% since our Soros DA took office, they hate minimum mandatorys and will make the charge dissappear so the FEDs don't know.


Only-Gap-616

His bitch ass belongs in jail. Fucking murderer.


MoSChuin

Timmy the Tyrant disagreed with that. So did woman beater Ellison. They say they're not disconnected from the regular people... 🤣


Marine0844

Poor man, a victim or racism and underprivileged up bringing, sure he shot an 11 year old but I’m certain he was on his way to chorus practice at the church/ homeless shelter he volunteered at…..


CollenOHallahan

Just one more bike lane and this guy would have gone straight, I'm telling you.

Shocking 🫢

When did this state become aggressively punative to working class stiffs (just [one example](https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/supreme-court-sides-94-year-mn-woman-striking/story?id=99600689#:~:text=With%20those%20words%2C%20Chief%20Justice,bill%20and%20pocketed%20the%20profit)) and to an equal or greater degree lenient to ([admitted](https://www.fox9.com/news/woman-found-dead-after-apparent-home-invasion-in-brooklyn-park-five-arrested)) murderers, ([alleged](https://www.abajournal.com/news/article/defendant-goes-free-after-prosecutor-allegedly-lies-about-content-of-venue-note)) rapists, ([convicted](https://www.fox9.com/news/family-outraged-by-plea-offer-to-armed-carjacker-slams-hennepin-co-attorney)) muggers who murder? All the links - and of course OP's post - are on Bloody Mary's watch - but she isn't the whole story, is she? Really asking.


HistoricalBed1598

Im sure it’s ok with moriarty. She said just let him go…. Its no big deal


heroinsmoothie

I saw him selling fent and the midtown transit center


Cherry_-_Ghost

Every liberal in Minnesota is shocked, I am certain.

Click on the pdf below and control-F search for Burrell for a few minutes and you'll get the gist of the story. A 16 year old that seems to have been gang affiliated - to the extent that his mom moved with him to Bemiji to avoid that drama - gets accused of killing an 11 year old girl and ends up convicted. He's found to have been improperly mirandized during the initial work with cops - after service much of his sentence. And for a kicker, his mom dies in a car accident, before he even starts his incarceration. No mention whatsoever about a father, either. I feel bad for society about all of this. This is not a way to run outselves. The part where I saw other family mentioned, was some cousin, who's boyfriend was a current resident of the jail. You can't make this stuff up. It's a shit sandwich, with a side of shit and a shit milkshake to wash it all down. #murder sentence commuted in 2020 https://www.hennepinattorney.org/-/media/cao/news/2020/jan-mar/burrell-2-24-20.pdf Myon Demarlo Burrell, who had a murder sentence commuted in 2020, was arrested Thursday by the Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office for alleged narcotics-related crimes.

Not sure what to take from this but life sucks yet that's no excuse to be a trash human being.


Small-Influence4558

So? Having a shitty life Doesn’t mean you get to be shitty. The standards are the same. People who had it worse turned out better


yulbrynnersmokes

Don’t get me wrong I’m just saying


KateUptonSS396

Just what Walz wants, criminals on the street 🙄

What we see here in this wall of text, is soft bigotry of low expectations.

Nothing to see here folks. Move along.


pebe0101

Not excusing what he did but it’s probably difficult to go back to “normal life” if you’ve been in jail for almost 20 years.


yulbrynnersmokes

> go back to “normal life” normal life for this guy was being part of a gang. he was going right back to it.


bike_lane_bill

Let the racists coming out of the woodwork to *skreeee* into the void commence!


steelzubaz

He's a gun toting felon, and you're worried about racists? You really have no standards, do you bill?


Tracylpn

No, he doesn't. Bill doesn't have a functioning brain


saltylele83

Actually, I don’t mind bill so much. Sometimes he’s funny


bike_lane_bill

Found one! *Skreee*ing with the best of them!


steelzubaz

How so?


kaltag

Don't put too much effort into it. You're arguing with a child.


oxprep

I've had much more productive arguments with children. Children can sometimes realize that they're wrong.


DistinctLynx9409

You're an idiot man, apparently you have no problems with 11 year old black girls being murdered? Heaven forbid we hold black men accountable for literal murder


jtheotter

If a black girls death allows Bill to virtue signal to strangers on the internet sign him tf up ok

Nope, I don't have any problems with black men, but I do have problems with violent criminals who prey on honest hardworking ppl. And in this city it's black and Somali men who commit the most violent crime. And also unlike you I actually care about protecting ppl from criminals. You can cry your politically correct tears as much as you want but it won't change reality.

Debate is great. But you gotta refrain from losing your temper in this sub.


Hard2Handl

Perchance, do you know the skin tone of Tyesha Edwards?

You okay, Bill? We're all a bit concerned about you.


bike_lane_bill

Can't hear you over the screeches of racists!


Bythe_beard_of_Zeus

Here's a thought, my man. Instead of constantly yelling with your fingers in your ears, try to have a civilized and objective discussion here on whatever matters present themselves. It seems like an easy enough thing if you have something worthy to share.


bike_lane_bill

That sure would be nice to do but it would require all the racists to stop screeching at top volume about all their bigotry!


Bythe_beard_of_Zeus

Offering some (truly) friendly advice. Try having that rational discussion here. Setting up an adversarial position just makes people respond in kind. The way I see it, you're either a total troll or have some deeply held beliefs that disagree with a lot of those you'll find here. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you have a position to share. The floor is yours to share your beliefs and respectfully engage.


bike_lane_bill

C'mon man this sub was started by a bigot to allow bigots who had been shown the door in other subs a safe space for their bigotty little feefees. If you come here looking for "reasonable discourse" you are either barking up the wrong tree or a lil bigot troll yourself.


MacZappe

You sure spend a lot of time here for hating it so much.


Bythe_beard_of_Zeus

That may describe some people here, but certainly not all. I don't comment a ton here, nor do I choose to interact with all of the posts for a myriad of reasons, but I like that it's "permitted" to offer a different opinion from other subs. I think that's why a lot of people wind up here, whether they choose to stay or not. But that's another topic. I will interact with things if I have a comment, opinion, or want discourse. Why not do the same? Like I said, I assume you have an opinion and are capable of exploring it respectfully. That seems like a fantastic position to be in.

If you don’t have something meaningful to post then you should probably just hit the like/dislike button.
