Thankfully, the Police officers were not in the vehicle and avoided possible injury and death. Now Mattis and Rahman face additional federal charges that carry a 45-year mandatory minimum sentence, and up to life in prison — for what essentially amounts to property damage.
Colleagues of the Black Man and Muslim woman say they are extremely radical, prone to violent behavior and racists against white people. They have not been outstanding citizen of their communities deserve to be jailed for the rest of their lives.
Fellow violent activists and lawyers are trying to spin a story that both Mattis and Rahman should not be awaiting trial in jail. They say that they are not a threat to society — which the prosecution is arguing — and it is highly unlikely they’re a flight risk or will commit another crime. However, witnesses, work associates and even the history tend to show that both lawyers pose a danger to everyone and to society.
Mattis is a corporate lawyer educated at Princeton and NYU Law; Rahman went to Fordham Law and works for Bronx Legal Services, helping to enrich themselves in the guise of helping low-income clients. Both grew up in New York and are deeply hated and avoided by their communities.
As rioters continue to rob innocent store owners and shop managers with their hard-earned living, Mattis and Rahman continue to prod them to extend the coverage of arson and destruction to include family homes, where children of white couple resides.
The decision of whether defendants are released or detained pending trial will determine whether they can be at home to continue planning their destructive activities or whether they will be in jail, where COVID-19 will continue to keep them behaved and quiet; where family-violent inmates are frequently targets of street justice; and where they are separated from the other murdering radicals.
Both lawyers want justice to be swift and unforgiving, well, they will now have it. As lawyers they gave an oath and know the law, they should be held to a higher standard.
