And may blacks rob White Liberal houses with impunity while cops stay away. Wouldn’t want anything bad to happen to those criminals.
> The United States Court of Appeals... <
But this was a state trial. So I’m thinking that any appeal will go to a Minnesota appeals court.
“... guilty of second-degree murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter ...”
How do you get three convictions from one killing?
Kill him. Resuscitate him. Kill him again. Resuscitate him again, then kill him a final third time.
We don’t have a justice system, we have a legal system steeped in stupidity and prejudice.
people have the nerve to say that none of the rioting, none of the threats, etc., had an effect on the jury, that they just went by the evidence. This was the song being sung on The Five, CNN, MSNBC, and all the other outlets. Over the weekend I saw Jesse Watters saying the Chauvin was guilty.
Too bad they no longer teach history in our politicized schools. Maybe people will (belatedly) wake up when the guillotines are hauled into town squares.
None of the charges involved intent to kill. The second degree murder charge was for felony murder-- unintended killing resulting from commission of a felonious assault.
Proof of the theory that police can only function in a law abiding society.

Sacrificed on the alter of Maxine. Fools are running the country.
Good question...
“The United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit has only one Democrat appointed judge on it. One was appointed by H.W. Bush, five by W. Bush, and 5 by President Trump.”
If I’m not mistaken, a verdict alone is not grounds for appeal. There must be additional evidence and facts which support the defense enough to overturn. A jury who ignores the facts and evidence alone is not enough to win an appeal. Any criminal attorneys out there to confirm?
That is called punting in football. Like betting on all the numbers in roulette. They voted out of fear.
“I could have lived with the lesser of the 3 charges (manslaughter)... but MURDER?????”
Manslaugter is considered under the murder category, particularly when it is unintentional.
so. . .manslaughter? Stacking charges is hardly fair and usually illegal. . .decades ago in a previous life.
He wasn’t on his neck, but you know that..
Next up to the Volcano’s edge, Kyle Rittenhouse.
The Gods of the Woke Mob must be appeased.
How does the composition of the US Court of Appeals matter in this case?
An appeal would take place in state court not a federal court.
>”Find someone guilty or we’ll riot.”
>Things haven’t changed very much since 33 A.D.
Well put.
Why would ANY cop approach a black person since any outcome can be a criminal charge against them?
Exactly what they want.
They may want that as a static outcome but the dynamic outcome is people shooting blacks instead.
