Outrageous: Five Fairford Terror Suspects Walk Free on Bail
[RedState] A person can get pretty jaded in the news business, particularly where dealing with lax justice systems is concerned. But now and then something comes across that jolts one nonetheless; something so outrageous that you have to read it two or three times to make sure you aren't missing something.

This is one of those cases: Last week, we saw and reported on the arrests of five would-be terrorists who were allegedly plotting a scheme to attack the British Royal Air Force (RAF) base at Fairford with explosives. They were caught, thanks to a sharp-eyed citizen, and their plans thwarted. And, one would think that once locked up, people accused of a crime on this scale would stay locked up pending trial, right?

Right?

No. The Fairford Five are out on bail.
A point strongly suggesting the Fairford Five are not native Englishmen.

4 Hypothesis from the Washington Examiner:


…based on what little all of us know.

Interesting theory. Could explain it.

Doesn’t explain why Trump would now be objecting to the suspects being bailed, unless that’s optics. His initial remarks, “we got them,” cited to support the theory, also undermine it. Whoever had them under surveillance are not the ones that got them.

Anyway, we the public don’t know a lot more than we do know about this thing.
