One for Three?
If this were baseball, that's a Hall of Fame statistic.
In the realms of criminal justice though, that's a fucking sad number:
- The man convicted of killing a Chicago police officer will spend the rest of his life behind bars.
On Monday, Alexander Villa was sentenced in the murder of Officer Clifton Lewis. Villa, however, says he will appeal the conviction.
Lewis was killed while working security at a convenience store in 2011. Villa claims he was framed.
Charges against his two co-defendants — Edgardo Colon and Tyrone Clay — were dropped this year after their legal team successfully argued their confessions were coerced by police.
Clifton was a good guy working a shitty side job for some extra money and he deserves far better than only one of the three assholes doing life.

R.I.P. Officer Clifton.
But if it had been some useless career criminal like Saint Floyd then the media would go ape shit over this pitiful outcome. More and more reasons not to do anymore than one has to do. He deserved much better, RIP and condolences.
12 years ago? Justice delayed is Justice denied.
Now two thugs will skate.
"(Tyrone) Clay was arrested in 2012 and was awaiting trial when the charges were dropped in June. An appeals court ruled that Clay also had asked detectives for a lawyer before he confessed, with the court ruling he lacked the mental capacity to understand his right to remain silent or to have a lawyer."
So a violent, mentally handicapped man is now back on the streets? Sleep well Chicago, sleep well.
Maybe Kimmy Foxxx can screw up Villa's appeal too, and get him released too?
You are being optimistic, they will find a way to let him out.
Lil Kim sez: One outta there ain't bad.

The detectives f'ed up badly. The turd asked to a lawyer. Don't get a confession after that. Doesn't matter if he keeps talking. Get the confession before the turd asks for a lawyer. Those are the rules. Play by the rules or the turd walks. In this case, the turd walked. Stupid f'ing detectives.
So what if a Confession is ruled inadmissible evidence! There is almost always other evidence to include: Witnesses, Crime Scene, Surveillance ( Physical and/of Electronic), Third Party Business Records, etc. There is NO requirement for a Confession in order to prosecute.
There is always Karma!
