Yes you’re right, I forgot about the bail part. And the bail system certainly is flawed. Generally aren’t you not allowed to leave your state if you’re out on bail?
It depends on the state and the bail conditions, which can be modified. Restrictions are based on priors, flight risk, violent tendency, etc.
That’s why the gag orders make the news. To your point, folks would be knocked for shit like that.
This line is being crossed on purpose. He can get his propaganda out, and if he actually gets tagged, that’s even better propaganda.
Which sucks. But, I imagine the decision-making by the courts is based on avoiding creating a political prisoner out of him. So, we deal with a flawed system, increase fines, and wait for the process to unfold.
Yes I think I have to agree that (I hope) there is a long game going on where they are minimizing the chance of asking for appeal, a slam dunk case. And of course his base would love nothing more than to have him in prison, as theb he becomes a martyr. For what’s its worth id rather live in boring times!
If there’s one lesson I’ve learned in my 48 years, it’s that boring moments are underrated and moments are overrated. Everyone says they are bored and want some excitement, but excitement doesn’t mean good things. More often than not, it is something bad. I’d rather have a boring day than an exciting one.
I still hope that one day politics will be boring again. No “if the Republican gets into office democracy might fail.” No “Trump is calling for the arrest of anyone who spoke up against him.” Just “the two major party candidates have differing opinions but both would lead this country competently.” Make Politics Boring Again!
You claim to only have 48 years on this earth, but you talk about getting back to a time that hasn’t existed in at least that long. Are you just reminiscing about rose-tinted stories you heard from your elders? The “good times” they want to return to were anything but for many of us.
How does that show lack of due process? And what do you define as “all the time?”
DeAndre Davis has been waiting 651 days in a Sacramento County jail. Charged with the murder of a 21-year-old man shot during a robbery in 2019, he hasn’t been tried and he hasn’t been sentenced — and he hasn’t even had a preliminary hearing to decide if there’s enough evidence to take him to trial.
For Davis, it’s been an agonizing ordeal made worse by the pandemic. Held without bail because of the severity of the charges
While this is all awful and should all change, it is hardly being held “without due process”
Things can be bad without being the worst thing possible.
How is being held in jail without a hearing, for almost 2 years due process? Yes there is a huge issue with the amount of back log in the legal system no doubt. If this person is found to be innocent, or in the preliminary trial found that not enough evidence exists to charge this person, they have not been given due process, if they’re lucky they will get a bit of money, while their entire life fell apart around them. They would have been detained in violation of the 14th. That is not due process.

Yes, sure. There are many issues with the bail system, but people should not be locked up without due process. Charges were brought, bail was set, and he’s awaiting trial. Time will tell the rest of it, but that’s not getting off Scott free.
Yes, fair. I want an air tight case, and that takes time. It’s frustrating. But a flimsy case would be worse. Putting him directly into jail would be worse and set a terrible precedent. People seem eager to fall head first into his narrative.
Not rich people wait in jail while the case is built. They pay outrageously high bonds if they don’t wait in jail. This guy has done neither, and is accused of High Treason
The fact that he’s free speaks volumes about our failure “justice” system.
Free is one thing. Fuckin duder is campaigning. Like what the actual fuck…
He doesn’t deserve the title of Duder, and the title of Duder doesn’t deserve such a stain.
I would like to issue an apology to all Duders out there. I am sincerely sorry.
Thanks to your swift and sincere apology, your Duder status has been upheld. Duder on.
Not only that…there’s a good chance he is going to WIN again. What the fuck is anything?
Yes, and if he was locked up without due process, it would say something else.
They lock people up without due process awaiting trial all the time though right?
Depends, there’s certainly a good argument to be made that the bail system is flawed, etc. But trump was arraigned and is out on bail.

Exactly, me too!
No. No they literally do not.

Do you not think that being held in jail for 651 days without even a preliminary hearing is lack of due process?
Seems like a violation of the 14th amendment to me.

I quoted the part where they’re getting due process. What they’re not getting is a speedy trial. The reasons for this are a system that’s overwhelmed.
Specifically they’re being held so long because of a failure in the act of complying with due process.

Funny, there’s a jail a couple of miles from me full of a few thousand people who would disagree with you.
I’m not surprised that people in jail don’t have a strong grasp on the difference between due process and speedy trials.
You don’t end up in county by making good choices
Way to punch down. 👍
Oh I’m sorry do you end up in county by making good choices?
How many friends do you have that did time? I’ve got lots.

Due process does not mean, “scott free until there’s a guilty verdict”, you utter numpty. These aren’t all civil charges.
I suppose being rude makes you feel good, strong, and right.
I know he’s rich, but a 200k bail is not Scott free. People pay bail all the time.
When you’re rich, $200,000 and “free” are the same thing.
Yes, sure. There are many issues with the bail system, but people should not be locked up without due process. Charges were brought, bail was set, and he’s awaiting trial. Time will tell the rest of it, but that’s not getting off Scott free.
Most of us would be held during trial if we threatened the court personnel and violated gag orders the way he has.
But it’s not a criminal trial (yet). We’ll see if that changes in Georgia.
The wheels of justice grind very slowly. The bigger the case, the longer it takes to build.
But yes, I’m getting impatient. There should be consequences for trying to overthrow the government.
Yes, fair. I want an air tight case, and that takes time. It’s frustrating. But a flimsy case would be worse. Putting him directly into jail would be worse and set a terrible precedent. People seem eager to fall head first into his narrative.
“Justice delayed is justice denied”, especially if it’s delayed long enough for the defendant to dismantle the justice system itself.
Not rich people wait in jail while the case is built. They pay outrageously high bonds if they don’t wait in jail. This guy has done neither, and is accused of High Treason
He should have been arrested on the spot and thrown into gitmo while the courts decide what to do with the body.
I just want him to get the same treatment I would get if I committed a serious crime in broad daylight.
Sure, we’ll all be waiting for a verdict with baited breath.
Also about the failure of our national security apparatus.
