If the police accuse and charge someone of a crime then the state must prosecute according to the applicable rules, statues and constitution. The state’s attorney’s, assistant attorney general’s, Shannon Signore and Jonathan Burke are playing cat and mouse games and making a mockery of the Rhode Island Judicial System. This case is a waste of tax payers dollars, it is a disgrace to the decent, honest assistant Attorney Generals, RI Public Defenders, criminal defense attorneys, Law Enforcement Officer’s and Judicial Officer’s of the Court.
