Not much in the form of the protests by the masses like we saw last summer for Mr. Sterling.

What gives?

Result of the DOJ letting this technically leak out early last night? Storms running through the area?
Apathy?

Or symptom of society in general...on to the next thing?

The out of towners will be here this weekend when it's not raining. We're not out of the woods yet.

They can still get state murder charges against them, this thing is far from over.

They could also get run over by an 18 wheeler this afternoon. Neither are likely to happen.

The ruling was leaked over the weekend. I had a business cancellation on Monday over worries about potential unrest.

There were arrests outside BRPD last night. The weather is likely keeping things down today, but I suspect there will be more demonstrations soon.

I'd think this is most likely.

Agreed and based upon the initial statement It sounded like they would be toast at the state level. After hearing the entire details I don't see how they get charged with anything. I don't see how they could have defused the situation. Unless of course John Bel and Broome throw the cops under the bus and sacrifice them.

Within a few seconds, Officer Lake reached into Sterling’s right pocket and pulled out a .38 caliber revolver. Investigators later confirmed that Sterling’s gun was loaded with six bullets at the time of this exchange.
