George Floyd murdered by cops

[TitoFan]

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?

I have to say it seems to me that the standards of law enforcement officers has dropped over the years.

9. Carbon monoxide from vehicles' exhaust killed Floyd!


Just when I thought they couldn't pull any more straws out of their ass... they come up with this one. LOL

Well... seems like the defense has rested their case, and closing arguments are set to begin shortly. Chauvin declined the option to testify... which is just as well. He would've been skewered by the prosecution, practically ending the case right there.

Let's see what the justice system does with this one.

One... justice is served and Chauvin is found guilty of the charges leveled against him... goes away for a VERY LONG TIME... and everybody goes home satisfied.

Or "B".... another travesty of justice where he gets less than what he deserves, opening the floodgates for the riots that are sure to follow.

Then many will blame the protesters... rinse and repeat.

Maybe if cases like this were highlighted more then more people could get on board with the fact that a lot of police are a bunch of thugs who need sorting out.

I sympathise a lot with the position a lot of police are in. I'm sure the majority of police are fine upstanding people and they do an incredibly difficult and dangerous job. I wouldn't like their job. But there are obviously massive problems that need to be dealt with eh.

Another one. He has an identical twin brother and they're both fucking criminals who should be prosecuted, not serving the public. I'm sure I read somewhere that the entire Vallejo police force has a massive problem with criminals in uniform.

Current and former employees describe a department where bullies thrive, whistleblowers are dealt with harshly, and the pressure to shoot and kill civilians is strong. “Some days I feel like I work with a bunch of thugs who take pleasure out of hurting people,” a current member of the department told Open Vallejo on condition they not be named.

While reporting this story, Open Vallejo received a series of threatening emails from an anonymous account using the name, “Tariq Aziz.” Law enforcement sources believe the author is a high-ranking Vallejo official with knowledge of the badge-bending tradition. This is consistent with Open Vallejo’s analysis of the emails and other evidence.
