Charges In Alleged Robbery Dropped

" Two men who allegedly robbed an intoxicated woman leaving a downtown bar in August and were later caught on the Route 50 bridge had the charges against them dropped last week in Circuit Court.

Charges dropped?! WTF!!! The two men should be publicly humiliated, made to reimburse the woman tenfold, and incarcerated. They should have to pick trash from our roads and waterways for at least a month. Jerks.

Don't you think police should have used common sense and checked out the story before it went that far ! The police using common sense could save tax payer a lot of money and court time ! I know of one case where a neighbor told police another neighbor told deer to eat her flowers.Police went out to people's house with dogs and police car back up many times.No evidence,no charges no common sense used but wasted money like crazy kids with no sense of fairness and honesty !
POLICE COULD HAVE STOPPED THIS BEFORE IT WENT THAT FAR,COME ON DRUNKS IN A BAR !!!

Alleged victims frequently lie to police to cover up their own poor judgements and behaviors. It's like blowing all your money at the track and having to go home and tell the spouse. Police can only rely on what "victims" say. There is always more to the story ! Believe me, I see it everyday.

Charges dropped. police jumped the gun again and went out of contril before thinking or investigation of her the story ! Happens all the time police don't use common sense before acting ! Public pays the price for police mistakes ! You should see how stupid they act when a crazy old vendictive hateful neighbor(Carol) calls them and tells lies ! They come out with K-9 dogs and 6 police officers to harass an old sick women until she has a stroke 3 times ! Police need to work on evidence and facts not what their friends tell them to do !
