Prominent Democrat donor, Obama buddy, Ray Buckley Associate, NH election buying, member of the DNC Terry Bean has made an investment in his self-proclaimed innocence. He paid $200,000.00 dollar to put an end to charges he raped a minor. The scandal no one covered has come to a close. Or has it?
Bean is declaring this a victory for his self-proclaimed innocence, but that is hardly the case. The victim, after being paid off, went in to hiding and refused to testify. $200,000.00 buy a lot of silence but purchased silence is not innocence. It did finally can convince a judge (who initially opposed closing the case based on the settlement deal) to bless the “pay-off” when the key witness wold not appear for the prosecution.
This is not the first such investment by Bean, nor will it be the last. But in Oregon a rich Democrat donor can avoid prosecution with hefty payouts to victims.
Can you smell the income inequality hypocrisy drifting off the left coast?
A less well-heeled, well connected defendant, lacking these resources, would be on trial, but because Bean has means, the “victim” was offered a large sum and disappeared, his future relationship with the payout (no doubt) contingent on his “unwillingness to testify.”
The repeat offender keeps walking as long as his pockets are deep.
Laws are, after all, just for the little people.
