Holder Drops Death Penalty For Accused Cop Killers

Eric Holder, who dropped the New Black Panther case and almost had a defender of cop-killer Mumia abu-Jamal as an assistant, takes the death penalty off the table for four alleged Virginia cop-killers.
The National Guard has not been called up, Al Sharpton has not made an appearance, and neither have 40 FBI agents been dispatched to ensure the convictions of the four gang members who allegedly murdered a Virginia police officer.
Nor will there be riots and looting if they are acquitted.
When cops are the victims instead of the accused, a different standard of social justice seems to apply.
Waynesboro, Va., is not Ferguson, Mo., and 45-year-old reserve Virginia police officer Kevin Quick is not Michael Brown, shot and killed by Ferguson officer Darren Wilson.
In February, officer Quick never made it after he texted his girlfriend that he was on his way to see her.
According to police, Quick was set upon by three siblings and a fourth man, and was carjacked, kidnapped and taken from bank to bank to withdraw money using his own debit card at gunpoint before being shot to death.
His body was found in a wooded area in Goochland County six days later.
Siblings Daniel Mathis, Shantai Shelton and Mersadies Shelton have been charged along with a fourth man, Kweli Uhuru, in a federal indictment that lists them as members of a street gang called the "99 Goon Syndicate," an offshoot of the infamous "Bloods" gang, and allegedly committed the murder to climb in the gang ranks.
The alleged killers now await trial, which is currently set for May 4, 2015.

Racist Eric Holder is without a doubt the sorriest excuse for an AG this nation has ever had.
Not because in this case the victim was an LEO but because he was a human being killed in a premeditated murder by racist scum. Here's three of them.

I guess I don’t get it... I thought murder was a state crime. Why would Holder have anything to say about it? Am I missing something?

Yeah, it’s not a federal beef so why does Holder have any say?

I don’t know why they’re being prosecuted in federal court other than it may be because it’s a gang related murder of a police officer.

"I guess I don’t get it... I thought murder was a state crime. "It's a State crime in NY State, even for law enforcement personnel. Look at who's Governor of Va., and you've got your answer as to why this was done.

kidnapped and taken from bank to bank to withdraw money using his own debit card at gunpoint before being shot to death.I'm not thinking very well tonight, kidnapping (murder) and bank robbery are federal offenses.
