A district attorney in New Mexico is defending her decision to let nearly all defendants in a Santa Fe rioting case avoid jail time, according to a report.
The decision by District Attorney Mary Carmack-Altwies, who serves a three-county region that includes Santa Fe, is part of a concept called restorative justice, the Santa Fe New Mexican newspaper reported.
Carmack-Altwies wants seven of the eight defendants to enter a pre-prosecution probation program, calling their case – that they allegedly destroyed a 152-year-old obelisk last October – a political problem that got forced upon the criminal justice system, the newspaper reported.

Santa Fe Mayor Alan Webber announced last week that he would seek reelection this November. The question now is will he have an opponent?

......................
Many people agree that that may have something to do with Webber’s status as the incumbent, but they also say the vast amounts of money Webber is capable of raising to defend his seat might deter others from challenging him.
