Attorneys for the former Minneapolis police officer convicted of fatally shooting an unarmed woman in 2017 plan to ask a sentencing judge for no prison time.
If thats not granted, theyre seeking less prison time than state sentencing guidelines recommend.
Mohamed Noors lawyers filed a motion Thursday asking for a dispositional departure when he is sentenced June 7. He was convicted of third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter in the fatal shooting of Justine Ruszczyk Damond, a dual citizen of the U.S. and Australia. She had called 911 to report a possible sexual assault in the alley behind her house.

They already paid her family a staggering $20 million. No way are they gonna let this psycho skate.
Correct.
Before the trial.
Damands grief-stricken father doggedly pursued the case when it became clear the Somali cop was being shielded from prosecution by the PTB.We believe this verdict was reached despite the active resistance of a number of Minneapolis police officers - including the head of their union - and (despite) either the active resistance or gross incompetence of the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, he said. Particularly at the beginning of this investigation.
Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman also said the BCA made mistakes at the beginning of the investigation, but that they worked to correct them. People make mistakes, Freeman said. We work with the Minneapolis Police Department and the BCA all the time. There have been several officer-involved shootings since then. And theyve both done an exemplary job. We hope the problems weve had in the past are over, and they continue to do the good job theyve done recently.
In a text message, police union president Lt. Bob Kroll said the family has a right to react in whatever manner they choose. They have a right to grieve and place blame where they see fit, Kroll texted.
The union also issued a statement, expressing sympathy to the family. From the very onset this was an extremely unfortunate situation for all involved, it read. The tragic loss of life; an officer convicted of murder charges while on duty. Our condolences go out to the family and friends of Justine Ruszczyk Damond. Our thoughts are with former Officer Noor. The Federation respects the legal process and the findings of the jury.
Minneapolis Police Chief Medaria Arradondo too issued a statement after the verdict was announced.Ive just been made aware that the jurors presiding over the former MPD Officer Noor trial have reached a verdict and their decision is guilty on the charge of Murder in the Third Degree and guilty of Manslaughter in the Second Degree. I respect the verdict rendered. I want to extend my sincere apologies to the family and friends of Justine Damond Ruszcyzk. This was indeed a sad and tragic incident that has affected family, friends, neighbors, the City of Minneapolis and people around the world, most significantly in her home country of Australia.
I want to acknowledge the important role and work of the criminal justice agencies who were involved in this case including the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, the Hennepin County Sheriffs Office and the Hennepin County Attorneys Office.As Chief, I will ensure that the MPD learns from this case and we will be in spaces to listen, learn and do all we can to help our communities in healing. Moving forward, I remain committed to all communities the MPD has taken an oath to serve by continuing to build trust by focusing on our procedural justice efforts. Through collaboration and partnerships with all of our stakeholders, I am hopeful that we will strengthen our community wellness and safety.
Justines fiancé Don Damond criticized the Minneapolis Police Department for not embodying its message. To protect with courage and to serve with compassion, where were these values that night, he said. She called them because she needed them to protect with courage and serve with compassion, but that night there was a tragic lapse of care and complete disregard for the sanctity of life.
He called on Arradondo and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey to make changes within the department. But Damond thanked the prosecution for its care, diligence and integrity. I also want to thank everyone who has held us in their hearts and prayers, we have not walked this path alone, he said.

The brown thing, Minneapolis Police Chief Medaria Arradondo (R) with his predecessor lesbian Janie Peetmoss (or something).
THE BRAZEN COP COVER-UP-—A PLOT TO ALLOW A SOMALI COP TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER
Bodycam footage (the PTB were loathed to release) shows the Somali killer, Noor, being protected by a colleague,
cautioning the killer to keep quiet. The officer’s compassion is directed at the Somali killer Noor:
‘You alright kiddo?’ the cop says.
‘Yeah,’ Noor replies.
THE L/E COVER-UP BEGINS: The officer then directs killer Noor to ‘just keep to yourself, keep your mouth shut til you have to say anything to anybody’.
DON DAMOND: Where were these values that night? She called them because she needed them to protect her with
courage and serve with compassion, but that night there was a tragic lapse of care and complete disregard for the
sanctity of human life.
Plainly, as the tapes show, L/E concern was for the killer.
Janines grief-stricken father was turned away initially. The Minneapolis Police Dept L/E cabal gave him no help.
He was forced to pursue the case when it became clear the Somali cop was being shielded from prosecution by the cop cabal.
The grief-stricken father commented: We believe Noor’s guilty verdict was reached despite the active resistance of
a number of Minneapolis police officers - including the head of their union - and (despite) either the active
resistance or gross incompetence of the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, he said. Particularly at the
beginning of this investigation.

He should be hung by the neck, followed by the mayor that was instrumental in his PC hire.
The blue wall of silence in action. Thankfully it was breached.
Paul Kersey.
Paul Kersey.
Please pick up the white courtesy phone.
Hats off to Arradondo. He’s doing a good job of bringing some semblance of respect back to the MPD.
Six Aussie family and friends of Justine’s, one bullet...
Thanks.
That’s unusual... usually the ranks close, and its “suspended with pay.”
The Ft Hood Jihadist kept on getting his military officer pay for years after he had murdered those 14 Americans...
Many of us were surprised that he was out almost immediately, being Minnesota and all.
My prediction is that he will get about 12 years.
See you on June 7th!
I’d also like to see his patrol buddies brought up on charges from what they said on the cameras.
Fairness test: would a non-Somali Muslim immigrant cop be sent to prison for shooting a woman in her pajamas across his partner, killing her? If so, jail him.
OK, no jail time.
Hang the MF with a noose made of pigskin leather.
If at first you don’t succeed...
The LIB nitwits in Minnesota probably will make this murderer police chief .
