Omg I remember when that paddleboro scandal went down. They were so horrible to the people that were involved CONSENTUALLY. Making sure to out the female VP of some bank. Make sure everyone knew exactly what she was doing. It was so sexist and so vile.

Massachusetts has a history of railroading the innocent. Google Bernard Baran and Fells Acres.

Best part is that the same people who thought that the consenting adults involved in paddleboro merited police attention were at the same time saying that Cardinal Law was being unfairly persecuted for letting his priests fuck kids.

Prosecutors never change. It’s all about railroading the innocent and protecting the powerful. Alvin Bragg in NYC let Trump go, but threw the book at a Dominican Bodega owner who acted in self defense.

Just read about that in detail... wow that's fucked up, both the "voluntary" resignations and the Alba case - it's fascinating how the "justice" system seems to have a much bigger problem with law abiding citizens defending themselves than with people who actually take advantage of others.

It's almost like they can't stand the thought of someone not being totally dependent on them.
