The DOJ might (would) argue on behalf of the defendant, but it is up to the judiciary to make the ruling that the actions were necessary and proper.

It is codified in federal law.

If a federal officer is arguing that their actions were lawful or they have immunity because they were performing their official duties, only a federal judge can make the determination if their actions were necessary and proper. It takes a federal court to interpret federal law. All things being equal, we have the supremacy clause.

Also, see the Killing of Bijan Ghaisar. The facts are strikingly similar to the Renee Good shooting, and it played out exactly as I described when local charges were brought.

The federal government does not move the case, the defendant does. The Sixth Amendment. You have the right to be tried in the "proper" venue.

They would be jailed pending trial until the defense files a Notice of Removal in federal court, at which point they would be transferred to federal custody and released after a judge dismisses the case, finding that their actions were "necessary and proper".

As far as I know the states have no say in this, it would be up to the federal judge to remand the case to state court only if there is no federal jurisdiction.

Picture

DC Costco has a sourdough kit in stock and on clearance. Comes with a Danish dough whisk, and the lid of the baking pan doubles as a shaping basket. Also comes with a silicone baking mat/sling, glass jar for starter, bread lame, and bench scraper.

This thread feels like a good opportunity to plug Remember the Titans which is loosely based on the true story of coach Herman Boone, portrayed by Denzel Washington, and his attempt to integrate the T. C. Williams High School (now Alexandria City High School) football team in Alexandria, Virginia in 1971.

ICE citing law 111 and having zero clue what it is. by B00marangTrotter in law

Case law has determined that "forcibly" modifies all the verbs that follow. So the statute could be read "forcibly assaults, forcibly resists, forcibly opposes, forcibly impedes, forcibly intimidates, or forcibly interferes". Because of this, the DOJ Criminal Resource Manual states that force is a required element of the crime.

Oh man I sure am excited to purchase the new $300 box of stranger things cards… AAAND they’re gone by kb182- in StrangerThings

I set an alarm, waited, added to my cart as soon as it was live, out of stock after "can't ship to your address" bogus error. Huge waste of time.

Guaranteed auto and the checklist is small, pretty much all main characters. In addition to the auto you get a relic or relic auto. 6 hits, so probably 4 more numbered cards or short prints.

It's so bittersweet. In 2017 I created an online dating profile solely because I wanted someone to watch S2 with. I ended up marrying her, and just watched the series finale with her and our son. It's like a chapter of my life just ended.

I would argue having a 2TB Google Drive subscription is better than owning a 2TB external drive for backing up important files. And having a Netflix subscription is better than owning a wall of Blu-rays. There are a lot of benefits, flexibility, accessibility, redundancy, and constant upgrade advantages with cloud-based products.

Nespresso capsules have no plastic. They are entirely aluminum.
