Video has resurfaced of Suffolk County District Attorney Rachael Rollins (who was just confirmed by the Senate to be U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts) flipping out on a reporter following her confirmation.
According to a Boston Police report from December 2020, Rollins cut off and threatened a woman, and used the blue lights in a state vehicle while leaving a mall on Christmas eve to go through a red light. After that story broke, Boston 25 News attempted to interview Rollins about the incident, which immediately prompted an epically embarrassing tirade from Rollins where she randomly brings race into the matter, claims that asking her questions will get her family killed, and threatens to make “an allegation” to police about the reporter.
Watch below:
Rollins is among the George Soros backed “progressive prosecutors” overseeing the dissolution of law and order in America’s cities.
As I wrote of Rollins in my forthcoming book The Man Behind the Curtain: Inside the Secret Network of George Soros, her tenure has been an absolute disaster:
In Suffolk County, Soros backed DA Rachael Rollins, a woman reportedly âexhaustedâ because police officers âshoot us in the street as if we were animals.â She assumed office in January 2019.
She doesnât have a high view of police, but criminals can do little wrong in her eyes.
In an op-ed titled âThe Public Safety Myth,â Rollins argues that âWe have been told that our communities are safer with each criminal that our local law enforcement locks upâoften for low-level offenses like drug possession, shoplifting, or loitering. The problem with this narrative is that itâs largely false, predicated on a pervasive and pernicious myth known as âbroken windowsâ theory.â
Within a month after Rollins was elected, the National Police Association filed a formal complaint with the Office of the Bar Counsel in Massachusetts against her, alleging that she had âreckless disregard for the laws enacted by the Massachusetts General Assembly mandate.â They were specifically referring to a campaign promise of hers not to prosecute entire classes of crimes that would âadversely and will foreseeably impact the safety and well-being of those that she is soon charged to represent.â
Rollins disregarded those concerns and published a policy memo she claimed was âdata drivenâ and âgrounded in science.â In it, fifteen categories of crimes are outlined that she says should either be âoutright dismissed prior to arraignment,â or, where appropriate, âdiverted and treated as a civil infraction.â
Those fifteen crimes are trespassing, shoplifting, larceny under $250, disorderly conduct, disturbing the peace, receiving stolen property, driving with a suspended or revoked license, breaking and entering into a vacant property or property for the purpose of âsleeping or seeking refuge from the cold,â wanton or malicious destruction of property, threats, minors in possession of alcohol, drug possession, drug possession with intent to distribute, resisting arrest (when the only charge is resisting arrest), and resisting arrest (if the other charges include only charges that fall under the list of charges for which prosecution is declined).
This policy prevents criminals who would later commit more serious crimes from having those prior offenses on their record, so a sentence enhancement canât be sought.
As the Heritage Foundationâs Charles Stimson puts it âIn other words, in Boston, a violent career felon can break into your home, be in possession of cocaine, plan to distribute that cocaine to others, and resist arrest after you call the police, and all the charges will be âoutright dismissed,â so long as the reason he broke into your houseâand terrified your familyâwas because he wanted âto sleepâ or was âseeking refugeâ from the cold.â
Rollinsâ memo also established a new policy on cash bail and pretrial release of âpresumptive recommendation of release on personal recognizance without conditions. This presumption will be rebutted only if there is clear evidence of a flight risk.â She ordered that her office apply her cash bail and pretrial release policy retroactively to anyone held on cash bail of $25k of less.
In response to criticism of her insane policies, Rollins assures us that she doesnât âhave much time for more white men telling me what of communities of color need, because they donât know.â She also cited her bodyâs possession of âactual melaninâ in her defense.
As of August 2020, the number of shootings in Boston was up 29 percent from the year prior, and deadly shootings were up 34 percent. Boston Police Commissioner William Gross blamed Rollinsâs policy of releasing prisoners due to coronavirus hysteria.
And with that record, Biden saw fit to nominate her to an even higher office – and the Senate thought it was a great idea too.
