As I blogged about last Friday, a handful of Muslims abusing 11 boys in on a remote compound in New Mexico wasn’t enough to pique the mainstreams’ interest (wrong demographic of course). Here’s a recap of the story from Katie Pavlich ~

Thirty-nine year old Siraj Wahhaj was arrested at a New Mexico compound on Friday after authorities discovered 11 starving children, three women and another man living together in squalor. The children range in age from 1-to-15 years old. Remains of a young child were also found on the property.
 
Wahhaj abducted his three-year-old son from Georgia late last year and took him to northern New Mexico, where he has been hiding in a third-world style shack for months. He reportedly kidnapped his son in order to conduct an “exorcism.” The boy suffered from brain damage and had difficulty walking. Wahhaj blamed his health issues on the devil. The mother of the boy still lives in Georgia. Wahhaj’s father is an Iman in Brooklyn and has direct ties to the 1991 bombing of the World Trade Center.

 
Apparently none of this warrants holding Wahhaj – or the four other suspects – in custody until trial, because now we hear that the compound defendants are to be released pending trial! ~

A state judge has denied a request by prosecutors to keep in jail the two men and three women who were arrested during a raid at a New Mexico compound as they await trial on child abuse charges.
 
The decision came Monday evening after a lengthy hearing in Taos during which prosecutors said the five defendants were preparing for a dangerous anti-government mission.

 
She set a $20,000 bond for each and ordered that they wear ankle monitors and have weekly contact with their attorneys.

A small handicapped child is dead. Eleven other boys are no doubt scarred for life. And these monsters get ankle monitors? Welcome to the United States of Unequal Justice.

New Mexico compound judge has history of issuing low bail to violent offenders ~ Apparently this particular judge is known for her arbitrary decisions; criminals are given more standing than the public she’s sworn to serve ~

Monday isn’t the first time (Judge Sarah Backus, an elected Democrat) has issued low bail for suspects accused of violent crimes.
 
Just last month, she set a $10,000 bond for Rafael Orozco, a 24-year-old Taos man accused of battering his girlfriend, his newborn child and a health care worker at Holy Cross Hospital in September 2016.

Ryan Cangiolosi, chairman of the Republican Party of New Mexico, said Backus’ decision to release “suspected terrorists” into the community has put the people of the state at risk […]
 
“By releasing these suspects without even requiring them to post bail, Judge Backus has put people in danger and created the risk that they could flee and harm other children and communities as well,” he said in a statement. “If New Mexico Democratic Party leaders are serious about keeping our state safe, they should join me in denouncing Judge Backus and the incredible failure of leadership and judgment demonstrated by her terrible decision.”
