Policy on linking dangerous research
1: Relevance: Posts must be directly relevant to investigation of Pizzagate: the sexual/physical abuse and/or murder of children by elites, child trafficking organized by elites, and/or cover-up of these activities and/or the protection/assistance provided to the people who engage in said activities. See definition of Pizzagate and examples of relevant posts.
2: Empiricism: EACH factual claim that is not common knowledge must be sourced with a link. If you ask a question: Explain what led to your question and provide sources. If you present opinion/argument, connect your dots and provide sources for them. Avoid baseless speculation. ALL posts must include at least one link.
3: Clarity: All titles must adequately describe post content and must establish direct relevance to pizzagate. EACH link in your post must include a description of content and how the link relates to the post (except when markup is used to embed links in the specific text they support).
4: Meta submissions and general discussion submissions without sources will be removed. Please submit indirectly relevant posts to /v/pizzagatewhatever and unsourced questions to /v/AskPizzagate. Sourced activism / publicity posts and memes are allowed. Posts about the subverse itself go to /v/pizzagatemods.
5: You must label NSFW posts (“Not safe for work”; for example gore, nudity etc.) as such when submitting.

Former N.Y. defense attorney here[FN1]. New York has a lot of weird names for crimes[FN2]. I don't know why they don't update them. It's stupid and confuses people. In this case, "sexual performance by a child" basically means "child molestation which is recorded on video", so it's not quite as outrageous as it initially sounds.
I've never heard of $7500 bail for a Class C felony, though. When I was practicing, I defended misdemeanor cases with higher bail than that. Given the nature of the charges, I'd say Mr. Schwartz is absolutely a flight risk, and it's not like he's some schmo off the street who will have to beg off friends and family to come up with the bail money. $7500 ain't pocket change, but it's not really a hardship either. A more proper amount would be somewhere in the $50-100K range, if they even set bail at all.
Robby Mook is a close associate of the Witch-Queen. I think he was her campaign manager or some similar senior mucketymuck. Ain't much needful digging to be done there.
[FN1] I don't practice anymore, I'm not your attorney, and this post isn't legal advice. Don't ask me legal questions.
[FN2] Examples: they spell the common name for Cannabis spp. "marihuana". What most states call "assault", they call "menacing".

I believe it is 10% of the bail charge. If you fly the coop, aka beat it, then you loose the money and end up in the slammer. So far this guy is getting the soft touch. His father seems to be trying to cushion the damage, so I think he will be pretty upset if he jumps bail. Was he the one that abused him? Who knows. But they did say in this article that Schwartz played on a lot of baseball teams (Little League) so there could have been a Hastert or Sandusky around. http://thevillager.com/2017/06/01/district-leaders-son-busted/
