On July 29, District Court Judge Peter Cahill, the presiding judge in the trials of the four Minneapolis police officers indicted for the death of George Floyd, ordered the release of an exhibit memorandum that reveals a miscarriage of justice and criminal coercion of a witness.
Dr. Roger Mitchell, the former deputy mayor and medical examiner of the District of Columbia and now the Chief of Pathology at Howard University Medical School, a traditional Black medical school, boldly intimidated and coerced Hennepin County Medical Examiner Dr. Andrew Baker into changing critical conclusory language in his autopsy report on the death of George Floyd.
The exhibit is a written summary of Mitchell’s commentary and some admissions of coercion that he volunteered to Minnesota Attorney General Office prosecutors in November 2020. Mitchell’s perfidious conduct is discussed in this excellent article by Jack Cashill.
Dr. Andrew Baker, an experienced and well-regarded Chief Medical Examiner for Hennepin County, conducted an autopsy on Mr. Floyd on May 26, 2020, the day after his death and reported later that day, “The autopsy revealed no physical evidence suggesting that Mr. Floyd died of asphyxiation or that excessive force was used in the restraint performed by the officers led by Officer Chauvin.
Three days later, on Friday May 29, prosecutors elaborated on the cause of death in posting their initial complaint against Derek Chauvin. According to the complaint, “The full report of the [medical examiner] is pending but the [medical examiner] has made the following preliminary findings. The autopsy revealed no physical findings that support a diagnosis of traumatic asphyxia or strangulation.”

Their only hope is the Federal appeals courts. And my hunch is that they don’t have much hope there either.
All of this....from a counterfeit $20 bill and the necessity for a pack of smokes. He’d been detained at least eight times prior to this, and knew precisely the routine of the cops.
They shouldve never let him out of the vehicle.
If the roles had been reversed, I wonder if there would have been a trial? Ashli Babbit, was not available for comment.
The mob demanded the conviction of Chauvin and they got it and will keep it. Chauvin looked like a sadistic brute on camera while restraining Floyd. He was convicted on that basis.
“They shouldve never let him out of the vehicle.”
That’s what a cop I know says.
Regarding the excerpt from the article, the first three paragraphs are useless. So many times I must read, read, read, until I get to what the headline is all about.
Well said. Passing that counterfeit $20 cost the world much more than a pack of smokes. Butterfly effect of just one stupid criminal act.
“..admissions of coercion that he volunteered to Minnesota Attorney General Office prosecutors in November 2020.”
In other words, Hakeem Ellision knew about the tainted trial all along, and still hung his hat on a successful prosecution. Once a slimeball, always a slimeball.
It’s not stunning.
There was never an attempt at giving that police officer a fair trail. The jury people lied and were Black Lives Matter infiltrators. The politicians came to town and influenced the Jury. They never changed venue, and it should have been moved from the start. They hired outside prosecutors, that had nothing to do with the state. Finally, they intimidated witnesses and I believe the Judge knew all of the above and didn’t stop the trial. Finally, the evidence that George Floyd died from a drug overdose was suppressed.
This was a political circus and not a trial. This man did not receive a fair day in court, a fair prosecution, or fair jury, or testimony.
Nobody should be surprised.
The autopsy revealed no physical evidence suggesting that Mr. Floyd died of asphyxiation.
Case closed
Yes, if an unarmed black protestor was killed by a white police officer with questionable need, I'm 100% sure there would be a trial.
