Chauvins lawyer claims that this was perfectly ok a few years ago.
That civilian leadership really should get a serious probing.
Just in case he wins appeal. They are going to destroy him. Making it look like if he wasn’t guilty of that he also did this.
And here it comes.
Like Bimbo Eruptions.
And is anyone surprised the DOJ would add insult to injury by digging in the mud to find additional dirt to throw on Chauvin?
The DOJ is a political animal.
Now they jump on this bandwagon.
That’s what you call “proactive leadership with a vision.”
In 1995 “dead beat dads” were in the news: https://www.deseret.com/1995/8/29/19190181/clinton-defends-deadbeat-law The FBI dealt with this national security threat head on, heroically and decisively, all the way until 9-11.
I understand it was an approved behavior in the Police Departments manual.
I don’t see how he has individual liability in either case, if he was indeed following an approved procedure.
The message to local cops is - the Feds are ALWAYS in control
We need to let blacks line up to throw stones at him or administer nonlethal electric shock as reparations.
Because of life sentence isn’t enough?
How’s that Durham Report going?
Just nail him to the friggin’ cross already, geez!
I remember reading back last year right after this happen that Chauvin had multiple complaints or disciplinary actions against him.
I thought BLM was all for kneeling. Perhaps Chauvin was just trying to show his solidarity with them.
It sounds like Facebook, where they get you for former wrongs, after it has been declared wrong.
I do think there were other options with Floyd, such as sitting him by a wall and keeping two pairs of hands on his shoulders to ensure that he can’t get up.
However, I don’t know if that would have prevented a death in his condition.
There's your appeal.
17 minutes didn't kill him? Impossible!!!
Watch as this news, if it develops in the current direction, as the Democrat jury tamperers will say, “SEE!~ He was guilty, and everything we have screamed is justified!!!!”
Er. Well, no. If he is guilty, then why bother with all the corruption, incitement to violence, and felony jury tampering? Why send that ugly harridan Maxine Waters to Minneapolis to poison the countryside with her filth? There was no need. If he was guilty, then that is that. But committing federal crimes to ensure it, had a different intention.
Fear is what the Democrats want to instill, in everybody. In particular, wobbly moderates, if there are any left. This is all so that they can have carte blanche with their extremist idiocy. Abolish the Filibuster, and the logjam crashed down stream, destroying all before it. Defunding the Cops is just a twig in that maelstrom. Expect much more of this, during the run up to the “Summer of Love 2”.
Well if they’re going to charge Chauvin with this one as well then at least they know where to find him.
Chauvin shoulda played the national anthem. When that is occurring, kneeling is celebrated.
Is this not beating a dead horse?!
They will need to release the body cam footage.
