Lee Merritt , said news of Borden’s arrest “comes five suspects short and 14 days too late,” The Times reported. He added: “Given that these men were identified by a journalist almost immediately, it appears that law enforcement sat on its hands for a couple of weeks before deciding they probably should arrest someone.” SOURCE: New York Times , Atlanta Journal-Constitution SEE ALSO: Black Man Who Was Brutally Beaten By White Supremacists In Charlottesville Is Still Receiving Threats High-Profile White Nationalist Surrenders To Police [ione_media_gallery src=”https://newsone.com” id=”3478918″ overlay=”true”]
