Lancaster protesters held on whopping $1 million bail each on riot charges

A Pennsylvania judge threw the book at several protesters accused of rioting — by setting their bail at $1 million each — in the wake of the police shooting of a knife-wielding Lancaster man

Lancaster police nabbed a dozen people and one juvenile for staging the riots around 3 a.m. Monday in clashes that culminated in police deploying tear gas at the crowd.

The overnight violence came on the heels of the death of Ricardo Munoz, the mentally ill 27-year-old who was seen on bodycam footage charging with a knife in hand at a cop. The officer shot and killed Munoz Sunday afternoon outside his mother’s house in downtown Lancaster.

The mob marched from the scene of the shooting on Laurel Street to the police station, chucking glass bottles, rocks, bricks, gallon jugs filled with liquid and plastic road barricades at cops, police said.

That's what should have happened when all these disorderly protests started. Should have put their asses in jail with high bail. Congrats Lancaster judge

Nice job! now whoever sent them there will need to pay a million each to get them out. Can anymore say George Soros outloud? Time to stop these travelers from going city to city destroying America! Thanks to this judge, the chain will be broken!

That's awesome. Notice the libutards aren't bailing them out?? This is two fold.
1) The democrats won't pay that amount.
2) These fool's will realize that and may stop their shit.

Don't get excited. It's only for show. The mayor of Lancaster city is a democrat. They see the tide is turning toward Law and Order so this handful of rioters out of 100's were only arrested and held on this bail as tokens. Don't be fooled.
