Soros-backed Loudoun County, Virginia, Commonwealth’s Attorney Buta Biberaj issued a list of crimes her office will no longer be involved in prosecuting.
including hit and run with property damage, eluding police, reckless driving under 90 miles per hour, and trespassing will not be handled by Biberaj’s office, according to a letter sent to judges obtained by ABC 7 News.“They will be prosecuted, there will be accountability, that doesn’t change,” she said at a press conference. “We’re offering transparency on what we’re going to do and how we’re going to our resources.
As you may know, with the increase in the trials in Circuit Court and the introduction of body worn camera and related recordings in each case, the OCA is inundated and left with insufficient time to prosecute every infraction and low-level offense that is charged.
The Loudoun prosecutor’s office has also been at odds with Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares , with Miyares accusing Biberaj of having a “criminal-first, victim-last” mentality to her job.the release of a male student wearing a dress who raped a female student in a Loudoun County public school. The office simply put the male student in another school, where he violently sexually assaulted another student.
Since then, school district officials involved have been indicted by a grand jury that continues to investigate.
