Representative Cynthia McKinney Watch: McKinney Probe Enters 3rd Month

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: McKinney probe enters 3rd month

Police unions criticize U.S. attorney

The grand jury investigation of 4th District Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney enters its third month today with no hint from the federal prosecutor about how much longer it will take to settle a case that legal experts said should have been wrapped up in a matter of days.

McKinney was accused of striking a Capitol Hill police officer March 29, and the case was referred to the grand jury April 5. The drawn-out process of deciding whether she should be charged with assault has police fuming that the DeKalb County Democrat is getting preferential treatment from a politically motivated prosecutor.

If Flap or anyone else had been accused of assaulting a Capitol Police officer a fast disposition of the case would have ALREADY been realized.

Is Representative McKinney above the law?

Or does playing the RACE CARD have its privileges?

“Right from the start this U.S. attorney has handled this case differently from every other case,” said Chuck Canterbury, national president of the Fraternal Order of Police. “And it’s because she is a sitting congresswoman.”

What most angers the police about the McKinney case is that it involves an assault — no matter how minor — of a police officer. Police reported that McKinney hit an officer in the chest after he failed to recognize her as a member of Congress and tried to stop her from going around a security checkpoint, something members of Congress and their aides are typically allowed to do.

“It’s obviously frustrating for us,” said Andy Maybo, head of the Capitol Hill police union. “This sends out the message that it’s OK to hit a police officer — and it’s not, regardless of who you are.”

In legal terms, McKinney’s case “is as simple as you can get,” said George Washington University legal expert Jonathan Turley. Usually anyone who hits a police officer is immediately arrested on felony charges, police and legal experts said.

Of course, the case is simple.

Doesn’t the United States Attorney and the Grand Jury watch COPS?

Come on, arrest McKinney and deliver the justice this MORON earned.

Stay tuned…..
