A series of shootings in Minneapolis last week left six people dead and five others injured in just 24 hours, stressing “the results” of the “years of anti-political rhetoric and failed leadership,” the republican prosecutor was told Fox News 2022.
The Minneapolis authorities announced on Thursday the arrest of James Ortley, an alleged member of a 34 -year -old gang, as part of a mass shooting of April 29 which left four people and two injured.
The April 29 incident was the first of the six shots in 24 hours which left a total of six dead and five others injured, police said, adding that the investigators determine if certain shots are linked.
“Minneapolis, unfortunately, knows the tragic consequences of the years of anti-political rhetoric and failed leadership of the minneapolis state coucil and the lunatic county of the county of Hennepin in which is Minneapolis.” When the officials of the city demonize the police and reduce the budgets of the police and refuse to pursue criminals, results are bought in the street. “

In particular, after the murder of George Floyd by police in 2020, Minneapolis became “Ground Zero” for the movement “founding the police,” noted Schultz, adding that the public feeling in the police and the retention of the officers has not been the same since.

“For years later, police staff are still down,” he said. “We still have half of the police we need. The morale is broken and the criminals feel emboldened because, originally from this movement funded by the police … The county prosecutor in Minneapolis, Mary Moriarty, is one of the county [George] Prosecutors financed by Soros and Hard who adopted all the policies imaginable to undermine public security. “”

Schultz said Moriarty is aggressively continuing the police “and” chooses … rejecting cases that give indulgent advocacy agreements to people who had committed serious violent crimes, and otherwise adopt a variety of very awakened policies, such as taking into account the race in the conviction and otherwise. “”
The suspect in the mass shooting on Tuesday, for example, has a long criminal history.
Hennepin County’s County files show that Ortley would have been involved in a wave of crimes that would have resulted in a minneapolis resident killed by the window of his room in February, but the district prosecutor finally denied the accusations for the 34 -year -old man, As the Star Tribune reported for the first time.

Over the past 15 years, he has also faced accusations ranging from DWIs to aggravated flight to the first degree, fleeing a police officer, in illegal possession of a firearm and second degree assault. These accusations come from two violent incidents in which he would have shot a 16 -year -old girl while stealing his phone in 2009 and stabbed a man in a bar in 2021.
A witness described the Ortley weapon used in the attack as a “3 -inch long pocket knife”. The witness also said he saw the victim run away from the accused, lose his shoe and turn around, how Ortley caught the victim and “started stabbing him in the back”, according to the Hennepin County archives.
In the 2021 bar, the last accusation of Ortley, he was sentenced to 39 months in prison and five years of probation, but the court published a suspension, which temporarily stops the order for conviction.

The Hcao County Prosecutor’s Office (HCAO) immediately responded to the Fox News Digital Comments.
Schultz said Minneapolis experienced a recent “improvement in the number of homicides in this city, in particular”.
“This is of course a huge step back … And a reminder that Minneapolis still works with a fraction of the police officers he needs,” said Schultz about the mass shooting. “It always operates in an environment in which many city leaders are hostile to the police and that the problems of crime in the city persist, even if they are not at their heights in the way they were in 2020, ’21, ’23, ’24.”
