MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — Fired Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin has been arrested days after George Floyd’s fatal arrest that sparked protests and outcry across the city and nation.

On Friday, John Harrington, commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Public Safety, announced that Chauvin has been taken into custody in connection with the May 25 death.

Chauvin is the former officer in the video seen around the world with his knee on Floyd’s neck. He’d been with Minneapolis police for 19 years.

It was not immediately clear what the expected charges Chauvin could face are.

yeah, sure, right. This cop apparently sacrificed what is left of his life in support of this operation. He was deep undercover as a Minneapolis cop for 19 years, all in preparation for this moment. He and the lady in NY were on the conference call this past weekend when the whole thing was coordinated, and the go signal was given.

Yes, I’m mocking you.

I’m hearing reports that George Floyd and Derek Chauvin knew one another and even worked together as security guards!

There are news reports about it, quoting the owner of the bar they both worked at. I'm wondering if this will eventually get memory holed...

Amendment VI reads in part: “In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy . . . by an impartial jury . . .”

Your commitment to the Constitution does surprise me a little.

I read that Floyd worked inside the bar. Chauvin worked outside, and that it was not yet known if the men actually knew each other.

You're right. Floyd probably always entered and left the bar through the servants entrance.

Interesting, but the timing is way off.

Economic recovery will put this unfortunate situation to rest well before the possibility of any real impact on the elections.

I stopped at the planned execution bit.....I believe most conspiracies but this one is ridiculous....

why would the cop do this with multiple cell phones and witnesses with his face and ID to be plastered all over the place and making his life and the life of his family in extreme danger...

this was not a planned event....it was a stupid event done by a stupid cop....

although nobody knows what the drug tox or the autopsy shows...been 4 days....they should know...

he could work for the deep state/CIA and he is in no danger at all, just doing his job and stirring up trouble and division before the election ...

stranger things have happened ... just ask General Flynn ...

A good hypnotist can have you running around squawking like a chicken with your arms flailing and not only will you not be conscious of it, you will not remember it.

Hypnosis is the PERFECT method for getting people to execute bizarre actions because anyone who even CONSIDERS this as being possible is IMMEDIATELY labeled insane.. HAVE AT IT!

Regarding the incident in the park, it was only required that SHE be hypnotized. Because her claim didn't make any sense, it was a guarantee that the black man would respond as intended.

A deep state that can SHUT AN ENTIRE COUNTRY DOWN by perpetrating a massive LIE about a FLU is DEFINITELY capable of lesser things like recovering from a disastrous "you ain't black" comment from their lead hack in order to GET BLACKS ON THE DEMONRAT PLANTATION!

If there were only two doors to the place, front and back, perhaps the back was only used for deliveries, and as an emergency exit. Most likely he entered the same door as every one else, whatever shift he worked. And that’s a question that should be asked, but hasn’t been answered yet. Did they work on the same days, nights? Did they work on the same shift? People claim the owner held meetings with employees, but did he keep a record of who attended on what date? It’s all up to speculation at this point.

Creepy Joe is seriously considering Amy Kloubuchar as his running mate. This rogue cop had quite a few complaints filed against him while she was in the Hennepin County DA’s office. Yet everytime she let him slide. If she did her damn job this cop would’ve been kicked off the force, or prosecuted criminally and George Floyd would still be alive today. But Trump’s got blood on his hands because ORANGE...MAN...BAD

if you want it to feel like home for her, make sure there are a couple of dead cows or horses in bodies of water around there. Talk about a pure shithole, that would be Mog.

Of course, the Democrats, as bad as they are, would never ever allow people to be killed to further their aims. Like, Dem governors would never force nursing homes to take in covid patients knowing that thousands of eldery would die, for instance.

Or fund Planned Parenthood so that millions of babies would be ripped limb from limb.

Or lie about HydroxyC so that people with covid may die instead of get well.

Oh, wait....

Oh good lord. That’s tin foil delusion. It should be condemned on FR and removed. Or at least torn apart by sane people.

“rioters are wearing masks”

Harder to identify on security cams.
