This outcome is absolutely OUTRAGEOUS! Not only was that man put through a terror, the police officer, realizing his mistake, then threatened Mr. Nazario if Mr. Nazario complained against him. Jury needs a wake up call!! Call for KARMA. BIG KARMA!!
4000 only??
The city issued an apology 2 years from now they are sorry for the 8 billion dollars in cost overrun and the new taxes to pay for the overruns.
Public Infrastructure Money, to maintain things like BRIDGES ROADS LIGHTING FIXING TO RUSTED AWAY GIRDERS BEFORE THE HIGHWAY FALLS INTO THE RIVER FIXING THE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF POTHOLES Let's use that instead for a private ballpark so some billionaires can make more money It's our fault we allow this amount of corruption in our government Like the state Lottery that was ONLY to fund Schools, but we have no heat, no electricity, and the buildings are falling apart because they reallocate the Lottery to everything but schools It is sick, it is wrong and it should be illegal Let's drain the swamp and fix our roads and bridges and traffic lights A video was posted a month ago showing the main girders that support a major interstate over a large river, rusted completely away and just swinging as the traffic drives over the bridge. Both main I-beams are completely rusted away The same thing that happened to the bridge in Pittsburgh and the I-40 bridge and the I-90 bridge and so many others and caused them to fail. A video of what I saw posted to RUclips was removed because it was a matter of " National Security" You can say that again But nothing has been done in the month since the video was deleted. I still can't believe I saw what I saw. It defies belief to see these huge steel beams rusted out and detached from the supports and just swaying. If I had to guess, the pans that the concrete was poured in and the concrete itself are all that is holding up the bridge. The officials know about it. I don't know if they knew about it before this guy posted the video, but they certainly know now. If it were me I would close the bridge and start work on replacing the beams. But, this would cause hundreds of thousands of cars and trucks to be disrupted for years and they are not going to do it. And of course, they don't have any money to fix it because they reallocated the money to build a ballpark. It makes my head hurt thinking about how much money is taken from critical programs and used to build something that is private and makes super wealthy more money and costs the public more money. A ticket for a game is 1500 dollars A hot dog is 30 dollars 😢😢😢😢 I have lost all faith in my country
That is good we need something like that to get places
Take the highway funds and move it to fund the trains
I actually went to this distribution center looking for my package. Nobody had a clue what was going on. The work environment just in the front office felt like a prison. I’m not quite sure what’s happening with the United States Postal Service but these are tax dollars and paid to ship things with their service. Something must be done.
I need to stay anonymous it's a building that have a million people that have meant to volumes of being neglected by the director of that building the building and the people had no problems send directors getting away with everything

He should get a million dollars for every year he spent in prison!
This is clear self defense. The lawyer he had is corrupt. His lawyers name is Jason Anthony. I had the same lawyer in a self defense case. He didnt do any work on my case and told me to plead guilty. He didnt get this video the FBI did. He didnt present this video. That means he didnt obtain it. He didnt try to obtain it. I know this because he did the same thing to me.

Show was 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🎉..I wish we could see him again do this
Happened to my son in a dinky little county in Virginia, some years back, because of my evil ex sister-in-law, who was married to my younger brother, and something she claimed happened, which she had accused three other people of the same thing, over a short period of time. He was told by investigators that he failed the polygraph, though it was never presented for evidence, and no one got to see the results, and then my son was questioned for over 9 hours, wasn't allowed a break, and when he repeatedly requested an attorney, the detectives wouldn't allow it. He was a young man at the time, I wasn't allowed in the room during the questioning, and they had him sign a confession. Before the trial, the video of the questioning, conveniently disappeared, because the case would have most likely been thrown out. He's still paying for her lies, and the downright corruption of the investigators, to this day.
I love you, Diamond
That poor man. I know his time inside wasn’t easy. He was a target for no reason. Those kinds of charges are not accepted in the doc
Preying for him. Sme thing happened to me 8 months ago.

That’s a shame!!! That police should be charged like he was!!
Wowww… 40 years gone😢 I hope they are giving him some money to live now. 🙄

NO THANKS! Spanberger would be another democrat disaster and an extension of Biden and the democrat party failures! Enough of this socialist, Marxist and communist democrat party! And it means nothing that she worked for the federal government. In fact, because she was a government employee that is a red flag and indication that she is a failure....
