How Did a Man Accused of Attacking Lee Zeldin Go Free Without Bail?

Easy answer... because it was ****ing STAGED!

It did not take long for the attack on Representative Lee Zeldin during a campaign event to become the latest flash point in the political fight over New York’s bail laws.

Hours after the attack last week, Mr. Zeldin, the Republican candidate for governor of New York whose criticism over the Democrat-led changes to the bail statute has been a key issue in his campaign, said on Twitter that he expected the man arrested in the attack, David Jakubonis, to go free.

He then spoke at length when his prediction came true, emphasizing in news conferences and television appearances how Mr. Jakubonis’s release without bail exemplified the issues with the bail law.

But almost immediately, the involvement of Mr. Zeldin’s political allies prompted questions about the incident. Many Democrats seized on the relationship between the candidate and the Monroe County district attorney, Sandra Doorley, who as recently as this week was listed on Mr. Zeldin’s website as a campaign co-chair. They noted that the sheriff who filed the charge against Mr. Jakubonis, Todd K. Baxter of Monroe County, was also a vocal opponent of the bail law.

And finally, they wondered why Mr. Jakubonis had been charged with second-degree attempted assault, a charge that is not bail-eligible, virtually guaranteeing that he would be released as Mr. Zeldin had predicted.

If the democrats suspect something is up with this incident, it's probably because they know exactly how a staged event goes down.

     Exactly. You don't look under the bed unless you've been there yourself.

The revolving door of the criminal 'justice' system in areas where democrats have influence is well and widely known.


They're engaging in conspiracy theories in an effort to ingore the obvious, as is the norm with them.
