Back in Custody

This guy tried to light a Molotov cocktail full of paint thinner at a crowded CTA stop during rush hour:

  • The man accused of trying to ignite a Molotov cocktail at a CTA bus stop, then going missing for weeks after a Cook County judge denied prosecutors’ request to keep him in jail, is back in custody. Court records show the Cook County Sheriff’s Office arrested Marshun Kimber, the subject of three outstanding warrants, shortly after CWB Chicago profiled him in a report Wednesday morning.

    In case you missed our report, Judge Kelly McCarthy released Kimber on electronic monitoring on July 30 despite an assistant state’s attorney’s warning that he posed a danger to the public and could be a flight risk, according to a transcript of the detention hearing.

They'll hold him....but....:

  • Not long after CWB Chicago published its story Wednesday morning, the Cook County Sheriff’s Office located Kimber and brought him before Judge Barbara Dawkins, court records show. She heard the state’s motion for pretrial release sanctions based on Kimber’s alleged failures to appear and imposed the maximum penalty under the SAFE-T Act: 30 days in jail.

That's it?

Maybe next time, he'll try to light a Molotov cocktail in the courtroom.

So, per the Safe-T-Act, after that rule of 30 days Maximum, said violent criminal will turn into an upstanding citizen, get a job at Target, and no longer be a dangerous felon out wandering in the neighborhood? Who knew?

Give him the judge's home address, all their addresses. Maybe they will rethink releasing everyone.

They see no repercussions, smash & grabs, light-no sentencing.
Only if you "f" with a (leftist) judge or the (leftist) media, the fear of God inside!
There's no fear, but a ton of mental illness! Should be locked up!

Why is this not being prosecuted by US Attorney’s Office as a Federal Offense?
Terrorism against Mass Transit?
Possession of a “ Destructive Device”?
Not sure if this can somehow be categorized as “ … affecting inter state commerce”.
