The Department of Justice has dismissed more than one-third of riot cases stemming from last summer's violent protests in downtown Portland, including felony assault of federal officers. Many more dismissals are expected.

KGW reviewed federal court records and found that 31 of the 90 riot cases have been dismissed by federal prosecutors. More than half of the dropped charges were "dismissed with prejudice," which means that the case is over and done with, once and for all, and can't be brought back to court. Several former federal prosecutors described the decision as rare to KGW.

At least 11 of the dismissed federal protest cases were dropped on or after the inauguration of President Joe Biden under new Justice Department leadership, the Portland-based news outlet cited. Four defendants escaped prosecution who were charged with assaulting federal officers. Several anonymous sources informed KGW that numerous more federal charges are expected to be dismissed soon.

The dismissal of riot cases run counter to the tough-on-crime talk uttered by the Justice Department last year. Billy J. Williams, then-US Attorney for the District of Oregon, vowed at the time there would be consequences for the arson, vandalism, and assaults on law enforcement outside the federal Mark O. Hatfield Courthouse where far-left militants often clashed federal agents in the months-long terror.

  • There are people who are still in jail for the January 6th Capitol break in, BUT NOTICE HOW THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE is letting all of the BURN, LOOT AND MURDER terrorist criminals out of prison and in some cases are not even holding them after Billions of $$$$ worth of damage and murders that took place.

  • Christopher Wray is WORSE THAN COMEY, for corruption in the FBI, they are ignoring the terrorist group antifa, burning, looting and murdering.   This country is now fast becoming a BANANA REPUBLIC---just think, the United States of America, a BANANA REPUBLIC, because Law and Order is no longer here in our country!!!!

  • Pres. Trump neglected two of the most important functions of his office... LAW AND ORDER and National Security... He did not clean out the DOJ, FBI, and other federal law enforcement agencies.  His Judicial appointments were overly influenced by Deep State Operatives in his administration and basically, he let the deep state dictate domestic law enforcement... appointing two very bad Attorney Generals and two questionable Supreme Court Justices out of three.  Pres. Trump neglected to appoint competent and effective leaders in the DOJ, FBI, and US Attorneys Offices.  He was more focused on economic and foreign policy, deferring most Law and Order and domestic Issues to others.  I am at a loss to name a major member of the DEEP STATE or SWAMP that he indicted and or convicted for any criminal offense.  

    He left many of Obama's 'General Officers' and 'SES' in place to manage the DOD...  His appointments to the National Security Council were questionable, as were those appointed to operate our Intel services (DNI, NIA, CIA, DIA, NSA, NSC, etc.)  This resulted in Obama hold-overs and sympathizers left in place to undermine Trump's policies and the essential functions of law and order during his administration.

    Want to know why no one of any real political power was indicted under the Trump Administration... wonder no more... Pres. Trump allowed the Deep State to, more or less, run the justice department, courts, and intel services.

    • why blame Trump? while the Obama administration is the cause of this.

    • Pres. Trump, not Obama was President when all the crimes we are talking about took place... Pres. Trump was in charge... or was supposed to be in charge.  What? ... Maybe we are supposed to hold the janitor responsible for law and order?  The Chief Constitutional Law Enforcement Officer is the President.... not the Attorney General or the FBI Director... they both work for him... or are supposed to work for him.

    • I am sorry to inform you of this it was Obama that Black lives matter exist, and Antifa he was in office for 8 years there were rioters back than to obviously you don't remember all the riot that happened in the eight years Obama was in office and he didn't do nothing about it that's when Donald Trump win the election the Democrats hate him for it because they want Hillary Clinton to win the election that's when the riot continues if you don't remember all of 8 years Obama was in office please don't write this because Obama is the one that causes all the riot that you see now.

  • We already knew this would happen and we also know that we no longer have a judicial system in the USA that is functional.

  • Is anyone surprised by this?  The District Attorney in the Portland area has been doing this ever since BLM and Antifa converged on this city and started destroying it.  This is a liberal haven yet the locals seem to agree with it.  There is the eastern part of Oregon who is trying to seceed into Idaho but that takes time, IF it even happens.  In the mean time I wish the people of Portland a nice sunny day and may their city be burned to the ground!

  • "Justice" only seems to work in favor of the Dems...isn't it odd that "We the People" cases have no "standing" and the Dems "illegal" actions seem to disappear via the Department Of (In) Justice...or the Federal Bunglers of Investigations...time to start this "experiement" over.

    • Good description---FEDERAL BUNGLERS OF INVESTIGATIONS!!!!
