It is almost as if we are going back to the Jim Crow days with the colors reversed. Defense lawyers were not expecting that the thugs could get away with jury and witness intimidation in the 21st century. I'm not convinced they would have to pressure the judge.

Was Ashli Babbit's killer even fired?

If he was black, the honkies would have let him off like they did Nicole Simpson’s killer, O.J.

I think the business community should close all their shops and stores in these communities and this shit would come to an end!!!

The verdict was correct in this case.

Even so, it should have been nothing but a local story.

Please forgive my ignorance of the law, but how can you have two murder convictions, one manslaughter conviction, when only one person was killed?

Thank you for asking the legal question—why was Chauvin convicted of three counts of murder when only one person was killed?

“fantasy thought for the day? People in top positions in this government criminally undermined, compromised and attempted to overthrow a legitimately elected president, and when that failed they totally rigged the entire election.

There is no “fair” anymore”

And they never take the fall.

Yes, if they were smart, they’d stay out of those areas.

Especially after riots and destruction have come and destroyed their and/or some other business(es).

To rebuild and go back in there seems quite illogical. At the very least. Indeed reckless.

Better yet, how can you have a man convicted on each of three charges that basically contradict each other?

I see your point. But, then the programmers would be liable...

I could probably go with the manslaughter charge against Chauvin. Lock / bind Floyd’s feet together quickly and let him sit up...

But, due to those “impossible situations all the time” you mention, as I said to my wife yesterday evening “You’d have to be crazy to be a cop”, these days. But, as I also said, flip that: “In short order, all cops will be crazy people.”

At the intersection where Floyd was pinned down, a crowd chanted,
"One down, three to go!" - a reference to the three other fired
Minneapolis officers facing trial in August on charges of aiding
and abetting murder in Floyd's death.

****

Lots more news to come in the future as this event unfolds over time.

I am not sure.

What judge is this day and age will grant a retrial?

They are political animals after all.
