Heroic Derek Chauvin Appeals to US Supreme Court

We didn't see the videos of how uncontrollable George Floyd was in the minutes leading up to the knee-on-neck video. I found a couple of links that were quickly expunged from the internet. He was an enormous man, much bigger and stronger than Chauvin but he was high as a kite, crying "please please please" and would then fight with the officers in the back of the car.
What's he going to do when he's handcuffed? Why are you still trying to litigate this on a message board. Chauvin is scum, you love him because he killed a black guy, and Chauvin was rightly convicted of federal civil rights crimes. Move on, racist.

That's irrelevant to the question whether or not he should get an appeal
 
Chauvin got 21 years for it. That's just a fact whether you believe it or not.
It wasn’t a hate crime. It was a violation of civil rights - which would have been the same for white or black. Hate crimes involve race.
 
Criminal Negligence resulting in a death.

Hero? You must be some kind of parody troll.

Derek Chauvin should have restrained Floyd with ropes or something, then called the EMTs.

He needed some NARCAN. That was irresponsible and cruel what Chauvin did.

There's bad people out there, it is what it is.
Narcan would have been ineffective and only added to the overdose problems. Floyd had too many drugs in his system already. Fentanyl doesn't work with narcan. That's why it's got everyone up in arms because it's been killing so many people and is so strong that people regularly overdose on it...like Floyd did.

I seen the bodycam and other footage. The four officers had been struggling to get Floyd into a police vehicle. He is a big guy and was stoned with stimulant meth and the painkiller Fentanyl at the same time....no different from PCP. He was out of his gourd, agitated from the drugs, and in process of overdosing.

Floyd was such a big guy and so stoned on the cocktail that he was destroying a police SUV when placed in the back seat.

What exactly were they supposed to do?

Same difference. He pleaded guilty. His sentences run concurrent so Chauvin sits no matter what.

And if he was behaving like that when he died, it might be understandable. He wasn't. He was handcuffed and immoble on the ground.

They were supposed to arrest him without killing him. There are lots of police procedures to subdue an unruly handcuffed criminal. None of those procedures involve murder.
 
Floyd died from a drug overdose and was already in the process of dying from an overdose before officer Chauvin restrained him. The tainted jurors who convicted Chauvin did so out of fear that they would be targeted by the left and the media if they didn't find him guilty.


Derek Chauvin who was convicted of second-degree murder of George Floyd has appealed to the USSC after the state of Minnesota refused his appeal without explanation.

Chauvin's lawyer is saying the original trial was tainted by the media and courts so that facts were discarded such as:

-Floyd admitted to using drugs on video.

-Floyd repeatedly said he couldn't breathe on video before the cops ever touched him.

-Floyd's lungs were 2 to 3 times the normal size and filled with fluid. This is a symptom of an overdose.

-A Floyd hired family pathologist claimed Floyd died of Asphyxiation, but the government found he died from cardiopulmonary arrest while being restrained and that there were "no physical findings that support a diagnosis of traumatic asphyxia or strangulation."

-Hennepin County's chief medical examiner strongly suggested the primary cause of death was the deadly combination of Fentanyl, Meth, and a long list of Floyd's health problems.

-Floyd had almost 4 times the level of Fentanyl that is considered lethal.

-The restraint of using a knee on the back was in fact part of the training that officers received.

-Chauvin was the police officer that asked the ambulance to make Floyd a top priority and to hurry it up to the scene.
Unless SCOTUS wishes to deal US conservatism its final death blow, it won't touch this with a 10 foot pole.
 
Tell your therapist all about it
It’s pretty farfetched to believe that a cop, let alone three or four cops, in the post-Rodney King era, would allow himself/themselves to be construed as roughing-up a black perp in front of multiple phone video cameras unless they felt they were complying with standard procedure.
But Floyd-supporting bigots and opportunistic hustlers want nothing to do with reason or analysis. It’s all about pushing their racist bigoted narrative.

That's all water under the bridge and irrelevant to a request for appeal
 
Not really. If that works for the other cops involved it could apply to Chauvin.
It’s too bad you reject objectivity and justice.
I think you’re a biased racist.
There are only a few specific reasons that qualify your case for an appeal. The Minnesota state SC already rejected Chauvin because his case doesn't meet the required conditions. And he plead guilty in his federal case. Case closed

And the cops who beat Rodney king were acquitted. Then convicted.
But that worked in your racist favor so it doesn’t matter.

Every case is different. There is no one size fits all. If you got the money for it, appeal. It's your right. Some shyster lawyers take advantage of a client's desperation and tell em they got a good case for appeal even if they don't.
