POSTVILLE, IA — It seems that prosecutors are doing a lot of rushing to judgment these days. Not an innocent rush to judgment, but a libelous, diabolical rush to judgment that shamelessly and irrevocably ruins the reputations of innocent people, causing them and their families irreparable damage, heartache and emotional trauma.A number of recent news stories have proven the increased aggressiveness of many prosecutors and the near lynch mob atmosphere they seek to create regarding their defendant.
Prosecutors' Dismissal of Identity Theft Charges Against Rubashkin Hailed as Victory and Government Admission of “Overreaching”
On Monday, prosecutors dropped the identity theft charges - the centerpiece of its immigration violation allegations - against Reb Sholom Mordechai Rubashkin of Agriprocessors (Agri). The government cited the fact that a recent Supreme Court ruling determined that prosecutors who file identity-theft charges must prove that the defendant knew that the identity used belonged to another person. Knowing that their case was doomed and in response to a motion filed last week by Rubashkin's lawyer, the prosecutors asked a federal judge to dismiss seven counts of aiding and abetting aggravated identity theft.
