1/ OMFG.
Remember Brandon David Miller who, while acting as a 'violence interrupter' for We Push for Peace, beat a shoeless homeless man outside a St. Paul grocery store last fall...
2/ He was sentenced on Tuesday.
In a downward departure from sentencing guidelines, Miller's 27-month prison sentence was stayed by Judge George T. Stephenson.
He was instead sentenced to probation... DESPITE...
...
3/ ... DESPITE the fact that Miller was charged in another felony assault case in December (occurred Oct. 31) that left the victim with serious injuries.
That case is still open/pending and would have/should have been known to the judge at the time of sentencing.

1/ We've had requests for a list of offenders @MNFreedomFund has bailed out who've gone on to commit new crimes, including serious assault, sex assault, murder. This list is by no means comprehensive, it's only those we know.
Link to this list when contacting your legislators.
2/ George Howard was in custody for domestic assault. He was subsequently charged with murder 18 days after being bailed out by MFF.
3/ Gregory Jones was in custody for attacking a woman in a bar bathroom. He was subsequently charged with committing lewd acts in front of children 3 days after being bailed out by MFF.
