A left-wing prosecutor whose election was funded by liberal billionaire George Soros is being sued by the mother of a child rape victim after he botched the case's prosecution.
It's the latest example of a Soros-backed prosecutor showing leniency to, or fumbling the prosecution of, a pedophile, in a case that has even the rapist's attorney questioning the prosecution.
Amber Reel is suing Fairfax County, Virginia Commonwealth Attorney Steve Descano in federal court, after Descano failed to share evidence with defense attorneys, allowing her 11-year-old son's accused rapist, his uncle Ronnie Reel, to escape with only time served.
Under the law, the judge was required to dismiss the case.
The Washington Free Beacon reports:
A grand jury had already indicted Reel in February for sodomy and aggravated sexual battery, and the case was set for trial in September. But Descano's office didn't share evidence with the public defender before trial, bungling Reel's prosecution with its โwoefully, woefully missedโ deadlines. The case's presiding judge said Descano's office did a โdisservice to the victimโ and was โvery concerning to the court.โ
Because he dodged a felony sex crime conviction, Reel won't have to register as a sex offender and won't be barred from holding jobs in schools or other places that would put him near children. The victim and his mother in their suit say Descano's โdeliberate indifference represents egregious conduct that is shocking to the conscience.โโฆ
โฆFairfax County circuit court chief judge Penney Azcarate confirmed in court that Reel's case was โnot the first timeโ she saw a failure by Descano's office lead to charges being dismissed, according to a September court transcript. By failing to provide evidence, Azcarate added, the office had broken the law.
The Free Beacon notes Descano allowed another accused sex offender to walk free in July, failing to share evidence after he was accused of soliciting sex from a minor online.
Amber Reel also claims Descano also failed to notify her of the plea deal, as required.
It's also not the first time a Soros prosecutor has gone easy on sex offenders. In neighboring Loudoun County, Virginia, Soros-funded Commonwealth Attorney Buta Biberaj hired a convicted pedophile to manage databases, which included information on child sex crime victims.

Again, it’s always seeming about money and the elite, circumventing justice. IMO
Put the idiot in jail for this
Somewhere online I heard an interview with Mr, Soros, who suffered at the hands of the SS or the Polizei in Hitler’s Germany back in the day. A reporter asked him why he supported defunding the police in America. He replied that it was the police who caused him, his family and his compatriots to suffer. Here lies a stupendous fallacy: can one logically compare USA law enforcers to Hitler’s stormtroopers? Never in history have the sons and daughters of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob been so warmly received and indeed prospered as here in the USA. And is it not childish of a grown man to turn on us like the dog who bites the hand that feeds it, to destroy our society as the ultimate evil, that society which led him to prosper?
Sue Descano for all of his wealth and jail him for aiding and abetting a criminal.
