The human symbol of why Derek Chauvin needs a new trial in the death of George Floyd is now holding up his hands, backing away, and claiming, hey, don’t look at me, I don’t even remember that George Floyd t-shirt I wore to a Washington, D.C., rally.
But wait, there’s more.
Juror #52, Brandon Mitchell, a podcaster and basketball coach, was outed recently as a BLM supporter who went to Washington, D.C., for the anniversary of the March on Washington – an event whose speakers featured (naturally) Al Sharpton, along with George Floyd’s brother and sister and other people who lost family members in tragic run-ins with cops.
Hold on, there’s more.
Mitchell was featured on his uncle’s Facebook page wearing the shirt displaying the infamous photo of former cop Derek Chauvin with his knee on Floyd’s neck with the words, “Get Your Knee Off Our Necks.”
Mitchell had initially said the rally was to commemorate Martin Luther King, Jr’s March on Washington, but as we’ll see, that story has undergone rhetorical gymnastics worthy of Cirque du Soleil.
He went from saying he attended no rallies to telling Axios that the rally was an “opportunity to be around thousands and thousands of black people. I just thought it was an opportunity to be a part of something.”
Then he said he “doesn’t even remember wearing or owning the shirt.”
Except when he wore it on his podcast on YouTube, as Jack Posobiec discovered.
As I reported on PJ Media, Mitchell vowed on his juror questionnaire that he’d never been to protests about George Floyd nor rallies or protests pertaining to police brutality.
He claimed the D.C. march and rally was “100% not” about George Floyd and that he went because it had to do with “voter registration” for 2020 election.

The Hillary excuse, “I don’t remember...”
The Left desires Just-Us, not justice.
The Left is afraid Chauvin’s trial might be overturned, so the DOJ just brought “Civil Rights” charges against him.
For lying and making a mockery of what is left of our legal system, he might get another opportunity to be around thousands and thousands of black people... at least until some governor lets him back out on the streets again.
Assuming that he was under oath when he lied he should be charged.but of course he won’t be because only white males commit crimes in this country.
How can this not be a mistrial?
How?
Oh, yeah. Because we don’t have a real justice system or Department of Justice now.
That’s how.
Shades of the OJ jury except there were 12 of this guy on the OJ jury
“Mitchell was featured on his uncle’s Facebook page wearing the shirt displaying the infamous photo of former cop Derek Chauvin with his knee on Floyd’s neck...
In this case, it's The Runaway Juror by John Grishom, a novel about an activist who lies his way onto a sensational court case in order to influence the jury.
-PJ
The jury had 6 whites and 6 blacks - any white voting to acquit would be putting his family’s life in danger, given that this BLM guy is right there, to name out him and destroy his life.
...outcome starts to make sense now.

#52: That is me, but I’m not wearing that shirt.
or the druggy found with dope in his pants pocket:
These aren’t my pants that I am wearing...
“Russians must’ve hacked his social media feed”
>>or the druggy found with dope in his pants pocket:

Hasn’t one mule with drugs found up his or her rear end claimed “those aren’t MINE”?
So, where did he get the shirt?
Yes, definitely mistrial.
Well that was a HUGE surprise..../s
Someday, someone is going to refresh his memory.
Not me and not today.
And John Wayne as McClintock isn’t around, either.
This would explain the DOJ’s hasty indictment.
