        This is scary to me. A man is found not guilty by a jury & trump doesn't like the verdict, so now they're going after him on federal charges.

        THIS IS WHAT SCARES YOU? Jesus fucking Christ. Not the illegal immigrants felon with unlawful possession of a gun that killed an innocent woman?

        With all due respect, he was found not guilty in a court of law by a jury. It wasn't a hung jury it was a not guilty verdict for murder. He was convicted on possession of a firearm as a felon. Make him serve his sentence & deport him.

        It's a slippery slope if DOJ starts charging people because trump doesn't like a verdict. Doesn't matter if it's a person in the country illegally or not.

        You can’t see past Trump. This is so much more than just him not liking this verdict. The DoJ does not need Trump to act

        Steve, it is clearly you that can't see past trump. This is obviously a dangerous precedent to set.

        Even the 9th Circuit recognizes a necessity/justification defense to felon in possession and presumably alien in possession. If the defendant’s possession was transitory because he had just found the gun, he might beat this rap too. See US v. Gomez:http://caselaw.findlaw.com/us-9th-circuit/1210311.html …

        To be fair, the SF jury did convict on "felon in possession of firearm", indicating they might not have believed the "he just found it" version of events.

        As much as I think this guy should rot in jail, this smacks of fascism. It's equivalent to the mueller probe; they set out to hoist a man up, and keep digging until they find something jail-able. Why wasn't this charge leveled in the initial trial?
