Railroading of Derek Chauvin Day 3
The Houston Courant ^ | 4/2/2021 | M. Tremoglie

Posted on 04/02/2021 5:56:46 AM PDT by The Houston Courant

Genevieve Hansen, a prosecution witness, who was an off-duty firefighter at the scene, seems contemptuous of the judge and Chauvin’s attorney. It was so bad that the judge had to warn her not to argue with the court or with the defense attorney. Genevieve Hansen, 27, a Minneapolis firefighter of two years, who was off-duty and a witness to the George Floyd arrest, testified for the prosecution. Her testimony was often contradictory and argumentative.

Defense attorney Eric Nelson asked her about her background and experience. She said has two years of experience as a firefighter. She also has training as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) and acknowledged she is not as highly trained as Paramedics are.

When asked she responded that as a firefighter she has been in several burning buildings. Nelson asked her if a bystander at a fire ever told her that she is not fighting the fire properly. She said no. She was then asked if a bystander videotaped her while fighting a fire. She has seen citizens filming her.

Nelson inquired to what affect this would have on the performance of her duties -would she change the way she did her job. She said no. She also said that no citizen has ever yelled at her while she was fighting a fire. Still, Nelson wanted to know that if hostile crowds were haranguing her, if she were surrounded by a hostile crowd would it prevent her from doing her job? She replied it would not.

Why is the prosecution wasting time with fake witnesses? All they have to do is put on the stand any BLM person to say “da cracker did it.” That’s their whole case anyway.

The build up to the inevitable outcome is like a simmering pot. We all know they will not be happy with anything other than the death penalty. Any verdict or sentence less than that will be a reason to burn and loot.

We will know when the trial moves to verdict watch because the fake news will whip up a frenzy, a boiling pot ready for exploding and exploiting. Their riot news crews are already packing their bags.

Its coming soon. Hope I am wrong.

They have to have plenty of people crying and sobbing over St George to influence the jury and the trial watchers.

A little warmer weather coming soon. More riot friendly weather. Drag out the trial for more favorable conditions.

I sound pessimistic but I just have contempt for the American justice system anymore. It has been destroyed.

“Any verdict or sentence less than that will be a reason to burn and loot.”

Maybe; maybe not.

With Democrats owning the guberment now, mob handlers may have to rethink the optics of attacking authority.

Will it be to the advantage of mob handlers to portray the Harris-Biden administration as racist? Will Harris even allow that?

Unpaid, amateur rioters are always a possibility and things may yet turn ugly again requiring Harris to crack down hard on her base. At this point, we just don't know.

i do not think you are wrong, and “death penalty” to them means frog marching Chauvin to his death immediately.

Yikes! It’s rare to see such open and blatant willingness to enforce liberal stereotypes of close minded redneck behavior.
Many are doing nothing more than becoming that which they profess to hate. I hope that everyone has a happy Easter.

This is so true. Of course in a murder trial the objective is not to examine the character of either the victim or the accused but to establish whether the accused intentionally took a life not in self defense.

“Guys not a hero...”

Floyd was crying out for his momma over and over again. Dumshit cop should have known that’s what a dying man does...if he had a clue about D day or any other combat deaths for that matter.

Floyd had a blood concentration of 11 ng/ml of fentanyl. A level of 3 is lethal. He was already complaining he couldn't breathe before he was placed on the ground. The fentanyl was inducing edema in his lungs. On autopsy, his lungs weighed 2 to 3 times more than normal....edema. He would have expired in the police cruiser had he cooperated following his arrest. The whole video show was just that. There was no neck trauma. Nothing Chauvin did or didn't do would have changed the asphyxiation by edema caused by his self-inflicted fentanyl OD.

Fact don’t matter anymore. Verdict of ‘Guilty’ or ‘Not Guilty’ won’t matter.

The verdict will just be the starter gun for the rioting, burning, looting, murder. For those that read the signs, it’s time to get the heck out of Dodge.
