I think it's safe to say—from direct experiences of my east-coast progressive crimehole and countless bits of news that manage to break through the corporate press's ideological embargo—that in Democrat-run states and cities, criminals run free—more than free, since they're literally subsidized by the state using victims' dollars—and the police are almost completely unable or unwilling to stop them. It's nearly impossible for a victim of a crime to receive a competent criminal investigation, let alone a strong prosecution, let alone a meaningful sentencing. I cannot adequately express in less than two thousand words the enraging incompetence, laziness, apathy and ideological capture I have personally witnessed at the local and state levels. And I have not had my child obviously murdered and then deemed a suicide.
Meanwhile, most Democratic voters not only do nothing to hold the system accountable but continue to defend and applaud it even when they find themselves engulfed by the literal fire of its reckless neglect and willful incompetence.
"The Internet's Own Boy follows the story of programming prodigy and information activist Aaron Swartz. From Swartz's help in the development of the basic internet protocol RSS to his co-founding of Reddit, his fingerprints are all over the internet. But it was Swartz's groundbreaking work in social justice and political organizing combined with his aggressive approach to information access that ensnared him in a two-year legal nightmare. It was a battle that ended with the taking of his own life at the age of 26. Aaron's story touched a nerve with people far beyond the online communities in which he was a celebrity."
This is a very sad, tragic story. I had to listen with subtitles as the mother is difficult to understand. She’s a very brave & dedicated mother driven for justice for her son - who was clearly murdered. To this day she’s maintained all the blood & other evidence in her son’s apartment as she hopes for an investigation. So she continues to pay rent in order to keep it. My guess is now that that information is public, the evidence may be destroyed. A fire perhaps?
That’s exactly what I was thinking. If someone broke in to murder him, undetected, they can certainly enter again, to get rid of the evidence, without being seen .
Amazingly reveal on status of deception in high places, mother says it so well at end. Who are we?? This is America! Her sons' murder was to cover up deception to protect profits??
Oh my!!!! That was amazing. We haven’t seen such details about a crime so soon after it occurred. Most of the stuff we see is retrospective, not up to the minute like this.
This is great reporting, timely reporting. Journalism used to be like this, right?

Sounds like this has happened before:

TY—-looking forward to this. Read a Bloomberg piece a week or so ago on Sam Altman. He’s made a lot of enemies from what I can gather.
Sasha I haven’t listened yet but it’s already reminding me of the Seth Rich Wikileaks situation.

Yes, I think most likely, but will be more evidence of a cover up.
