Marion County Prosecutor Terry Curry said in a statement that comments politicizing the fatal crash were "ghoulish and inappropriate," The Associated Press reported on Wednesday.

. . .he's making things for more difficult for the prosecution?

A defense lawyer can then say his client cannot get a fair trial because the jury pool is now tainted.

Dirty donnie is not concerned with unintended consequences; he only cares about pushing his agenda, which is himself.

This makes him useful in the war of dictators versus democracies.
