The video I just saw from the trial of the Floyd incident with the audio of the crowd around looked pretty bad

[d0gbreath]

Dick Chauvin hated George Floyd from when they were bouncers at the same club. George worked inside while Derek was assigned to monitor the parking lot. Their shifts were different but overlapped some. Chauvin murdered Floyd on purpose.

Do you have a link about Floyd and Chauvin regarding any detailed reports about their hx at the club? I’ve read that the former club owner from that time said she had never seen them talking together and wasn’t sure they knew each other working in different areas of the club, but owners don’t always know all actions of their employees. When two employees work security at the same club, you’d think the parking lot guards would be talking to the inside security guards about possible incidents or particular patrons to keep an eye on when they leave, but what do I know. That’s where my mind went when the first story broke and the reporter relayed that the two had worked at that club together. I automatically assumed they had some bad blood between each other over something, but I have not found anything to support that. I haven’t caught any of the trial today so perhaps that information was put to bed already.

No link, but Derek working the lot on the day shift, while George bounced inside with the clientele at night, makes me think that there might've been some jealousy involved.

• She's a black activist who saw a black guy on the ground.

• She was WHITE.

• and what the fuck does that have to do with anything?

I come to this venue for entertainment.
And the above exchange between the avatarees "Turtlesoup" and "Care4All" provide it.

Methinks poor poster Turtlesoup doesn't really think through his responses carefully. He kinda fires at random in a knee-jerkish way. (yes, I know that is a double entendre')

The above 3 quotes prove it.
A. 'She's black'
B. 'No, she's white'
A. again: Why the f*ck is that important?

See? Is that fun stuff or what?

The crowd was pleading with police to let Floyd up....Floyd was obvously unconscious and unresponsive and the cop kept his knee on his neck.

The crowd is begging to check his pulse. I never saw this before. I thought the cop couldnt tell.

Fuck man....I dunno.

Has anyone seen that specific video before? With the crowd pleading with police? I had not.

I don't have time to sit and watch this. Have you seen the defense's response to this yet?

thats the one part of the whole thing that piss's me off the most,,

This particular angle combined with the crowd explaining what they see to the police and seeing Floyd unresponsive would carry ALOT of weight to me as a juror. The police did not seem to be good custodians of Floyd’s well being while in custody and not a threat.

Ouch.

You should keep in mind, however, that it's the prosecutor's job to make that impression, and we still need to hear what the defense side has to say.

That poor man was held for 9 minutes unable to move. Sure he had his issues. So did I when I was younger. It doesn't mean I should have had my claustrophobia tested. Based on what saw? That cop was one of the bad cops.

He certainly seems negligent. The video I saw was pretty fucking bad. The cop may well just be a brazen dumb fuck. Intent to murder would have had to come in the moment...because they tried to put Floyd in the back of a cop car and he would not cooperate and he asked to lay on the ground.

I have no doubt he did something in the car to warrant his being tossed on the ground. But in cuffs with 4 cops, he did not need to be held with a knee on neck for over 9 minutes.

If you've seen the ENTIRE video, you know that what he did in the car to warrant being put on the ground was 1) to ask to be put on the ground instead of in the car, 2) to try to get out of the car himself, and 3) to struggle with the officers.

And it's very easy for people who are not cops and who were not in the situation and who have only seen carefully selected parts of the incident to talk about what "needed" to be done. Personally, I want to see ALL the evidence, not just the carefully chosen pieces by one side of the story.

I saw it as well....I've thought for awhile there is a good manslaugher case here...and this just confirmed my thoughts. Obviously, I'm not on the jury...and I am sure there will be more evidence..but..wow..it was tough to watch

That may be, but since the prosecutor decided not to try for that charge, I think it's not an option.

He also said he was claustrophobic and could not get into the cop car....yet he was apprehended sitting in a car.

What the cop was doing was so obviously wrong, people took out their cell phones to record it. That's why 8:46 went to over 9 minutes when viewed by a different cellphone video.

Interestingly, the bodycam footage was over 20 minutes, and included all kinds of things the crowd didn't care to record.

I'm afraid I don't take a mob's interest in photographing as definite proof regarding right and wrong.

A COMPACT car, much smaller than the cop car. He was also babbling about his mom "just died", but I believe she'd actually been dead for something like two years.

I am pretty sure one of the charges is second-degree manslaugher.

Means nothing. That was the first thing I saw a year ago, they were calling to the little runt cop who was new to the force. People say everything to cops---- the day cops start listening to them all we are all in big trouble. Those people were 15 feet away and none of them doctors.

Its not the crowd in and of itself. I have always thought the cop was negligent, but this was just a bad look for the cops for jurors to see.

It sucks that Floyd was so tweaked out and combative while he was in the backseat of the cop car and he kept screaming I CANT BREATHE!

Perhaps had he not cried wolf, he would still be alive....who knows.

I think it should be like an onvoluntary manslaughter....like when you drive a car wrecklessly and kill someone.

Its a shame Floyd was a serial felon and meth head trying to rip off local businesses with fake bread.

Of course it's a bad look for the cops for the jurors to see. That's why the prosecutor showed it. Again, you need to remember that all you've gotten is ONE side of a two-sided, adversarial system. And while the prosecutor is required by law to share any exculpatory evidence with the defense, he's under no obligation to share it with YOU. I'm not saying Chauvin is guilty or innocent; I don't know, and I'm not on the jury so it's not my decision to make. I AM saying, don't treat the prosecution's case like the sum total of all evidence, presented without bias.

Pretty sure it is...and from what I read the State's 3rd degree murder law, reads like a lot of manslaunghter laws...

The ones that tell the news, not propaganda. The real media. Abc cbs nbc cnn bbc npr and so on. The ones that have shown all the videos of the george floyd murder, not just the one that supports the narrative, as the OP noticed.

The hate sites who gaslight America with Reich propaganda.

There is a reason no one trusts the Reich propaganda corps - it's because they are known fucking liars.

lol why do we need a trial? She's right. I mean good lord.

Um, because this is America.

The racists are seeking justification for the public execution of a black man. Behavior while in custody, past record, drug use, anything.

When you see the entire video it's evident that Floyd was in a drugged mania state.

So what if he was? How would that give a cop justification for killing him? What kind of other stuff do you think offers approval for random cops to commit murder or manslaughter? Should random cops be allowed to commit other crimes?

Prove it was murder.

Not my job. We all saw him kill the guy. A judge and jury are in the process of determining if he committed murder or manslaughter, but we all saw the cop kill the guy.

No, you all THOUGHT you saw it, based on your "extensive" knowledge from watching TV, one assumes. The autopsy report tells us that Floyd didn't die from the knee on the neck.

 

[Cecilie1200]

It's horrible. I dont know that it equates to murder but it looks very bad.

It's 10 minutes of a man begging for his life and being assassinated. It's more than horrible, it's evil.

No, it's 20 minutes of a guy trying to bullshit his way out of being arrested, while higher than a kite . . . of which you only saw 10 minutes, so that you would leap to the uninformed, emotional conclusion that you did.

Yes, I am aware.

Like the vast majority of Americans, I don't believe a fucking word from the party press.

If the NY Times prints something that turns out to be true, it's purely coincidental.
