Politico: Trump campaign manager will not be prosecuted

Corey-Lewandowski-Michelle-Fields-Surveillance-Video-3-e1459271776371As we could have predicted, based on the evidence, Florida has decided not to pursue charges against Donald Trump’s campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski.

POLITICO:

A Florida prosecutor has decided not to prosecute Donald Trump’s campaign manager for battery after a March run-in with former Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields, sources with knowledge of the situation told POLITICO.

The decision not to press charges against Corey Lewandowski is scheduled to be announced on Thursday afternoon by Palm Beach County State Attorney David Aronberg.

 Fields may still pursue a defamation case against Lewandowski, a source said.

….

Aronberg would not comment, but in a POLITICO interview last week, he pointed out that Jupiter police had a low “probable cause” standard to cite Lewandowski for battery. But the responsibility for moving forward with a full-blown prosecution rested with Aronberg’s office, which had to consider whether a crime occurred and whether they believed a jury of Floridians would prosecute. 

“We have a higher standard to go forward with a prosecution,” he said.

Fields would not comment on the record. Lewandowski could not immediately be reached for comment.

    Based on evidence.

    But what about feelings?

    I still know people who FEEL that GZ was a murderer. In fact, most people I know.

    I prefer to THINK that evidence should matter more than media-fed feelings.

    She owes him a big apology and she should have to give it publicly. I get sick of people breaking the law by filing false police reports.

    All of those so-called female journalists who demanded he be fired should also apologize to him.

    I won’t be holding my breath though that any of them do. They were all willing to destroy a man’s life because they wanted to destroy Trump’s campaign.

    Perhaps Mark Levin will take the case. Does he do civl law 😎.

    Fields should count herself blessed that Corey is too busy to knock her back into her parents’s basement with a defamation suit of his own.
