Former Minneapolis officer in George Floyd case to appeal murder conviction

They are not trained to kneel on a restrained perp's neck for nine minutes, but good luck with that.

But, that doesn't mean his civil liberties can be revoked.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

he didn't do anything wrong, the country is slowly giving our worst class of offenders a pass while prosecuting the ones trying to protect us.

Good for you. Yes. We must stop the persecution of those trying to protect us. Or, they just might decide to stop protecting us. That recognized, George Floyd was dying when he was stopped. Whether he could have been saved is not even a certainty.

 

[Wild Bill Kelsoe]

The pig should fry and then we can get on to other murderous public servants.

But Floyd, who held a pistol to a pregnant woman's belly, while his pards stole all her shit is a martyr?

I noticed Floyd got a pass to six feet under.

He and his buds should have been beaten to the point of hospitalization for that move. Why didn't you do that for her?

Cocksucker Floyd had eaten fentanyl and was infected with the commie virus. Was the fentanyl also cocksucking Chinese as it is in Missouri?

You know that didn't happen, right?

Does it matter whether Chauvin knelt on Floyd’s neck versus his shoulder?

In the widely viewed bystander video of George Floyd’s arrest, it seemed plain that Derek Chauvin had positioned his left

they most certainly are, if the dumb sob -Floyd could have stood still, followed directions, he would be alive today. Chauvin does not deserve prison for following his training

Chauvin seems to have history of going overboard on violence.

so did Floyd.

 

[Coyote]

so did Floyd.

Except during those 9 minutes he lay prone and cuffed as Chauvin killed him.

I agree that once he was cuffed he posed no threat and the officer had no reason to remain in that position. But, I disagree with the murder charge.

The Left exploited the George Floyd case for political purposes.
The racist Democrat congresswoman Maxine Waters fanned the flames of Progressive hate and racism while the jury was still deliberating.
It was a 100% political conviction.
Chauvin's conviction was an injustice.
Floyd died from a drug overdose.
But, the most important factor is that if Floyd had been White we would have never heard about him.
The Yellow Press always racializes and politicizes police incidences when a Black suspect is involved.
America has devolved into being a banana republic.

"Black Criminal Syndrome"?? The media only publicizes the plight of black criminals who "suffer" at the hands of those mean white cops. Why does no one care about white criminals?

You do know he died of a drug overdose, right?

 

[Turtlesoup]

They are not trained to kneel on a restrained perp's neck for nine minutes, but good luck with that.

Actually they are----
Floyd died of his illegal drug abuse----and holding the 6'7 violent criminal high drugs still with one knee did not kill him.

 

[Moonglow]

Why didn't you?

You failed to inform me as it was happening.

Derek Chauvin appeals murder conviction in death of George Floyd, will represent himself

Former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin appealed his murder conviction ahead of the 90-day deadline on Thursday.

he is trying to get public defender cant afford A lawyer

Right. But the video clearly shows that his knee was between Floyd's neck and upper back/shoulder. The autopsy also supports the possibility that the drugs played just as much a role in Floyd's death as any physical impingement. Finally, the autopsy clearly stated that there was ZERO damage to either the cervical spine OR the soft tissue structures in his throat.

The guy was a lousy cop and whoever hired him after checking his background should be fired, but NONE OF THAT makes him a murderer. What happened to him was the modern version of lynching but this time it was done "by media". Mind it doesn't happen to you or yours someday. Those kinds of things are difficult to control once the mob realizes they have that power.

Sept 24 (Reuters) - Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin has filed notice that he will appeal his conviction and sentence for the murder of George Floyd, arguing that the judge in his case abused his discretion and made multiple errors during the trial.

He should, that judge overstepped, the officer performed according to the training he was given. George Floyd resisted arrest and had a criminal record.

George Floyd ate too many drugs and killed himself. Chauvin had nothing to do with Floyd's death. The judge is a fuckwit imbecile.
