Go for it.
When they can’t prove it, the case falls apart.
No double jeopardy.
Mass riots afterwards.
I’ll be charitable and presume that Floyd’s brother does not understand the different degrees of charge and the standards applied to each of them.
Sure... over charge him so that he gets off.
Like what started the Rodney King riots.
Democrats hate Lynching until the love Lynching.
They worked together at a club and had some sort of pre-existing relationship.
First degree murder would be a very difficult case to prove, but there could very well be more here than meets the eye.
Good, upgrade the charge to something that can’t possibly reach a verdict.
Well, of course he does.
The genius must have slept at a Holiday Inn Express. Viola! He’s a lawyer.
Might be a bridge too far unless there is something to the suspicion that this had something to do with the cop and GF’s relationship to each other. The Five mentioned counterfeit money and the place they both work at.
Well you can form the ne cesary intent very quickly, but still this is getting ridi ulous.
Laws mean whatever leftists want them to mean at that point in time.
You’re talking about idiots that want to defund the police and replace them with outreach counselors (eg political operatives)
AG says — I’ll raise that — we will try for him for zero-degree murder.
Floyd needs to talk to his family's legal mouthpiece. He said yesterday he understands why the second degree charges and not first degree.
This guy was on meth and opioids at time of arrest. He resisted arrest. There is room for reasonable doubt that no crime was commuted by the officer. The prosecution must prove, beyond a reasonable doubt, that the officer committed a crime. The medical evidence and testimony will be very important in raising doubt or establishing no doubt with the cause of death and details.
Although, at this point, getting a jury who has not made up their mind prior to trial, and can withstand the pressure that will be put on them to actually listen to the evidence and make an informed decision using only that which is entered into evidence, well that is going be a challenge.
Haven’t seen much presumption of innocence. Guess that is an old fashioned concept - let’s just go with what the media says and take it from there.
These people do not understand justice and laws at all. If Chauvin is char3ged with First Degree Murder, he will be acquitted and will walk.
Bless his heart.
The closer you get to first degree, the harder it is to convict. Maybe, as Glenn Beck observed this morning, this is a radical’s dream — overcharge, have him found not guilty, and create even more unrest.
However,it should be noted that the dead guys heirs have surely won the lottery.Five million...maybe even more.
