Drop Katherine Daniels’ Charges
The charges that are being brought upon Katherine Daniels, regarding the incident at The Ambiance involving Roni Quinn, are unjust and unfair, and clearly politically motivated. Her charges do not reflect what happened that day. Katherine Daniels is the chair of the Adams County Democratic Party, while Roni Quinn is an active member of the Adams County Republican Party. Todd Eyler, who is the State’s Attorney/lead prosecutor, is also a staunch Republican. These charges are clearly politically motivated, not only because they do not accurately represent what occurred, but because a very similar incident happened recently where a Quincy alderman, Glen Ebbing (Republican), accosted, yelled at and poked a Quincy citizen outside of a city council meeting. The citizen is not a Republican, and Glen Ebbing is facing NO charges. This incident made it extremely clear that political bias is present within our legal system, and Kate is a victim of it. We ask that common sense, decency, and justice be applied and her charges be dropped.
Why is this important?
Charging someone as egregiously as Katherine has been charged is not justice. It reeks of political bias and favoritism, which should never enter the justice system. The situation was completely misjudged, mishandled, and now someone is being dragged through a mess they shouldn't be. Katherine does not deserve the charges she is facing. Todd Eyler, Adams County State’s Attorney, is the prosecutor that has the power to drop all of her charges. We are asking that he does the right thing and dismisses Katherine’s case.
