George Floyd murdered by cops

[Spicoli]

Got home earlier than expected and caught some of the testimony. Said it at the time and believe it even more now, that coward intentionally killed the man. Hearing the complete audio in conjunction with the vid of Chauvin looking right into the camera at the small group of bystanders, clearly adjusting his backfoot over and over for leverage and screwing the knee in. He took the small crowd of vocal witnesses personal and killed him point blank. There ain't no mystery in this one it's all there. All they're doing now is trying to tear down the bystanders credibility.

Lawyers will do what lawyers will do.

I could never understand a lawyer taking a case that he or she knows is definitely riddled with bullshit. Just for the money or just to fulfill the constitutional obligation that everybody is entitled to an attorney to represent them in court.

You can't get any better evidence than the video tape.

He knew that the victim was dying as well as bystanders said you are killing him man you are killing him man he's going to die.

George may have fucked Chauvin's wife up the ass and given her multiple orgasms -- it's the only thing that I can possibly imagine that would cause so much hatred and so much malice on the part of the officer.

If he doesn't get 20 years to life at the bare minimum there are going to be some really really terrible uprisings all across the country.

The death penalty is appropriate like 50/50 in my opinion.

Let George's family mete it out

I haven't watched much of the trial... but from what I can gather from the news... these are some of the defense arguments presented so far, and sure to be expanded upon after the prosecution rests its case:

1. Floyd died from pre-existing health conditions.
2. The knee wasn't on the neck the whole time. Sometimes is was on the shoulder.
3. It was the bystanders who agitated and confused Chauvin, resulting in Floyd's death.
4. Floyd initially resisted in the squad car.
5. Floyd's a big, black man and was sort of scary looking.
6. Chauvin was only doing what he was trained to do in however many fucking years he had been on the force.
7. It was the drugs. Floyd had drug use issues.


I gotta say... somehow, I'm not impressed.

Let's see what the defense pulls out of its ass in the coming days.

Oops... my bad. The defense did have another excuse strategy up its sleeve. Damn... you couldn't pay me enough to be a defense lawyer.

8. The prone position is not risky to a person's health.

This one is also pretty piss poor and should be easily swatted down by the prosecution, in a trial that by now has been predictably reduced to the defense lawyers grasping at straws.

How much longer will this charade go on?

Will recent events of the cop who could not tell the difference between a taser and a gun impact on the case?
