I read up on that case as well. Apparently a defendant was sent to prison on a drug charge. The prosecutors office discovered that a technician who had access to the drugs used in the case tampered with it in some way. The article didn't say if the tech person was using or selling the drugs. Nor did they use the word "tamper" but "sabotage". In a situation like this the prosecutors office is supposed to tell the defendant's attorney of the incident but they didn't because they knew that the case would get turned by the judge. The defense files a motion to have the evidence deemed inadmissible and then have the case thrown out. The prosecutor didn't want to see a guilty person go free on a technicality so they didn't say anything. Eventually the defense found out and the defendant was set free. It just so happens that the tech person was dipping in the evidence of a few more cases as well. The tech person was relieved of their duties. I believe 60 people were ultimately release on the same technicality. The AG of Cali at that time wrote a scathing op ed about the whole thing and the actions of Ms. Harris. Make no mistake...what she did was unethical, but was justice served? She did the wrong thing for the right reason imo and if someone tries to call her on that, I suspect she will be prepared. Didn't save the article but if I find it again I'll post the link.
Kamala Harris is not the right Presidential choice for Black America

They were talking about this on Karen Hunter's show
So they played some of her answers on the Jake Tapper interview and she said she was against the death penalty and why.
They a caller called in and said he was retired police in Oakland and an officer was shot and killed and they tried to lobby her to seek the death penalty and she refused .
The caller said he understands her position but this case was personal and he holds it against her.
As soon as he hung up another dude called talking about he doesn't trust her because she is a pro-death penalty...
So it seems mofokrs are repeating shit they heard not what they know and certainly not what she says...

You cats really just called that propaganda
Off yourselves for the good of the people
Please
How did she fight against deathrow appeals for the entire state?
Lol do you realize how nutty you sound right now?
there were 704 people on death row in Ca
all with ongoing appeals...
A judge ruled death penalty was unconstitutional -
Harris appealed the ruling by saying taking them off death row undermines the condemned's constitutional rights and won - those 704 were facing death again
California AG Kamala Harris to appeal ruling against death penalty
Harris will ask the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals to overturn last month's ruling by U.S. District Judge Cormac J. Carney, who said decades-long delays and uncertainty about whether inmates will be executed violated the Constitution's ban on cruel or unusual punishment.
Harris personally opposes the death penalty but promised voters she would enforce it.
AG Kamala Harris Issues Statement on Appeal of Court Ruling on California’s Death Penalty
The court found that California’s death penalty is unconstitutional on the grounds that it takes too long for courts to consider and rule on defendants’ challenges to their convictions and sentences.
"I am appealing the court's decision because it is not supported by the law, and it undermines important protections that our courts provide to defendants. This flawed ruling requires appellate review."
I don't know, I'm not from California.
I thought you were talking about that.
Thats not fighting against deathrow appeals.
She is the one who appealed the lower court's ruling of the deathrow penalty being inconstitutional.
Her explanation, take it if you will, is that as the AG of California she had to represent the law and the will of the people. Californians voted to uphold the death penalty in their state, so she had to defend it. The appeal was not about her personal preference, but that she had to fulfill her duties as AG.
Im of the opinion that she should have taken the risk of letting that slide and see where it went next. Very possible that she put politics first there.
I hear ya, i just think its important to share the results as well.
Not sure if it was a good idea for her to declare she was running so early. She's been getting alot of shots right now from the left and right since there is no one else to focus on in the news. I think she is a good pick for someone to have a VP or Attorney General but not as a president at this time.
This might be her ultimate goal for now.
Shit is strategic.
I dont think she has a shot but this might be her come up.
No. The first part of your question answers the second part.
Who did he vote for in the last election?
Good question, I have an idea he didn't vote for the current president based on his criticism of him.
Kamala Harris: Attack on Jussie Smollett was ‘modern day lynching’

Democratic presidential contender Kamala Harris ripped the brutal attack on “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett in Chicago, where cops said the assault was possibly a hate crime.
“@JussieSmollett is one of the kindest, most gentle human beings I know. I’m praying for his quick recovery,” the California senator wrote on Twitter.
“This was an attempted modern day lynching. No one should have to fear for their life because of their sexuality or color of their skin. We must confront this hate.”
Chicago cops on Tuesday collected footage from city and private video cameras looking for leads in what they called a “possible racially-charged assault and battery” on the African-American Smollett, The Chicago Tribune reported.
Smollett, who plays Jamal Lyon on the Fox show, said two people approached him at about 2 a.m. Tuesday as he was walking to get something to eat and got his attention by yelling racial and homophobic slurs.
Smollett was hit and an unknown chemical substance was poured on him, cops told the paper, and a rope was wrapped around his neck before the attackers fled.
Smollett took himself to Northwestern Memorial Hospital and was said to be in “good condition.”
“Given the severity of the allegations, we are taking this investigation very seriously and treating it as a possible hate crime. Detectives are currently working to gather video, identify potential witnesses and establish an investigative timeline,” CPD spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said in a statement to the paper.
“Empire” is recorded in Chicago for most of the year.
Smollett plays a gay musician on the show and is an activist for LBGTQ rights and HIV education.

I posted a video that simply stated her transgressions against Black males.
In response, you still need more evidence. Only a coward or a non Black would still think about supporting her given the evidence provided
The only one sounding nutty (and cowardly) is you
You offing yourself would rid our people of one less idiot. Nothing crazy about that suggestion tbh
Gives her a chance to get in front of them and answer.
The real question is will these 144 character or fewer mofokrs even listen or just run with what they heard .
Mofokrs talking about she vowed to uphold the law as a DA like that's a bad thing when we have a president right now who basically is saying fuck the law fuck the constitution and fuck you too
Neva that! And for who and for what? Some nigga on a porn board who talk mad shit when they don't agree with someone. One thing I learned on this board years ago is nothing is as extreme as some niggas make it out to be.
This thread give perspective. Thanks.
Shit hit a little too close to home for her.
Damn, had no idea.
@ 11:25. Black folk are sniffing out the bullshit.
fuck her past, if we get you in office...what you doing for us black voters?
Not a damn thing...black ppl vote to "WIN" while others vote to get their agendas taken care of.
Booker? An angry black man?
Right? Booker is the male Harris for me but "angry black man" is literally something I would never think about him.
In this situation her political past can be seen as what she's capable of doing in her future....
*two cents*
Man this thread was fire
