I thought the Rittenhouse verdict would be the example but the jury got it right. Everyone cheered for the justice system and how well it works. The reality is we got lucky, period.
This officer did not commit a crime. She and the police dept. should be civilly liable but no criminal charges should have ever been brought. Our justice system does NOT work and needs a complete overhaul from the top down. DAs cannot be elected politicians. Jurors cannot be randomly selected from a pool of largely unqualified citizens. There should be no mandatory sentencing of any kind. I could go on and on but today should be a wake up call. Our system is utterly broken.
The defense in this case should organize an unrelenting movement to pressure the Governor to immediately grant a full pardon to this officer.
This is metro Minneapolis. She was judged by a jury of her peers. Speaks for itself. The Gov will do nothing......
