The riots have been sparked by anger among indigenous Kanak people over a new bill, adopted by MPs in Paris, that give French people who have lived in New Caledonia for at least 10 years the right to vote.
Fuck colonialism. Fuck France. Viva New Caledonia.
Then you should read the full article. I didn't attempt to summarize the (long) article. I just pasted a couple paragraphs from the beginning. It's pretty damning. To give a partial list:
The hospital she worked in was understaffed and underfunded to the point that patient care suffered along several dimensions.
The statistical likelihood of her happening to be present when the deaths occurred is not nearly as low as it would appear. Expert statsticians have weighed in with concerns.
Their are no solid theories as to how she killed the babies. According to experts, the methods proposed by the police have major inconsistencies with the evidence available.
Everyone she worked with, including patients, thought highly of her, her skill, and her care. The suspicion began only due to the seeming impossible coincidence of her presence at so many deaths. See point two above.
The health system and politicians are loathe to blame underfunding and policy choices undermining hospital operations for the deaths. All the expert witnesses were from the NHS. The police case was initiated by an ambitious politician who used the case to catapult his career.
Her defense did not call a single expert witness to the stand.
There is no apparent motive or psychological pathologies to explain the alleged behavior.
There are at least two documented cases of healthcare workers being wrongly convicted of murder for what turned out to be coincidental strings of natural deaths.
As you can see, there is no smoking gun, succinct argument for her innocence. Funny enough, there's no smoking gun, succinct proof of her guilt either. The evidence in her favor is subtle, but extensive. After reading the article, it's clear that unless the author is ommitting some important facts or otherwise misleading the reader, there is not nearly enough evidence to justify convicting this poor woman.
DOJ may not be able to do anything about Justices taking money from plaintiffs or other ethics violations, but they can certainly enforce the tax code.
