Three out of five Muslim terrorist suspects in the New Mexico compound case have just had all of their charges dismissed by a judge on what appears to be a technicality:

FOX NEWS – District Judge Emilio Chavez on Wednesday dismissed all of the charges against three of the five defendants arrested in connection to a New Mexico compound linked to “extremist Muslims” because authorities violated the state’s “10-day rule.” The child abuse charges against Lucas Morton, Subhannah Wahhaj and Hujrah Wahhaj were dropped, while those against fellow defendants, Siraj Ibn Wahhaj and Jany Leveille, remain.

Now you may be asking what is this 10-day rule. Apparently the suspects have the right to a preliminary hearing within 10-days of their arrest, and the state apparently violated that right.
