Not written very objectively, but holy shit is it hard to disagree with that conclusion. Those jackbooted thugs succeeded in destroying that woman.

I'm writing a letter to the White House demanding the DOJ step in and investigate. If this stands uncontested, I will be deeply ashamed of my country. Not that there isn't plenty already that needs work, but this is just beyond the pale.
