Maybe y'all bootlickers should inform yourself about the basics of this case before running your mouthes? There's a direct line between her, the court attorney, the owner of the hotel, and Keri Newell. And I'm willing to bet a small fortune of pick-your-favorite-crypto that she backdated the affidavits that the court openly said didn't exist the day after the raid. God imagine defending a raid on journalists without bothering to do a modicum of research. Couldn't fucking be me.

Can you articulate the personal attachment and motivation? Were they lovers? Was money paid? Some sort of quid pro quo exchange of favors? Do you have anything?

    >There's a direct line between her, the court attorney, the owner of the hotel, and Keri Newell. So the _direction_ connection between the individuals is: 1) The judge was a lawyer before becoming judge, and elected to office. 2) The mayor missed a meeting. 3_ Keri Newell met with the county commissioners.

      Dude, learn to read. I highlighted the important bits to make it real easy. She wasn't even elected into her magistrate position. Holy fuck, I'm done with this useless conversation.

  >If you were to gamble, what odds would you place on the idea that there was no evidence evidence for the warrant? I'm getting trolled anyway. The affidavits have been released, they're a joke. Which is why Joel Ensley (recognize that name) revoked the search warrants. Seriously, you don't even seem to know the basics.
