Not good for the DA's office for sure.
This would not surprise me. Obama is a product of the Chicago Democratic machine.

They may be deferring to the federal prosecutors. Why bear the cost of a trial in your jurisdiction when it can be laid off to another one.

Are they going to charge the Nigerian brothers, instead? Or did they botch it by giving them immunity in exchange for testimony?

News is stating all criminal charges are being dropped and his record wiped clean.

He is supposed to be talking to reporters shortly.

And Michael Avenatii will equally be exonerated.

In the United States, you still cant "try" someone at a microphone over the world stage before a trial.

Now in Trumpland it is going that way.
