Chauvin Murder Trial

[The Grand Nudger]

Pretty sure being handcuffed prone and unconscious with a man on your neck is enough to render anyone a non threat. I've been there.

Chauvin was tried for and convicted of the crimes he committed -after- that moment. Had he climbed off the man at any point prior to his death, or in fact delivered(or dispatched) timely medical aid, it's unlikely that charges even could have been filed, and a jury would almost certainly have acquitted him if they were - that's routine.

You don't have to be a physiologist, and you don't have to have been there, though, to know that a man in restraints laying unconscious on his face under another man has ceased to be whatever threat he may have once been. Floyd will, in fact, never be a threat to anyone again, on account of how he is dead. Chauvin...well, juries out on that one, and he's not going to serve life. I'm guessing that it won't surprise you to hear that cops who go out like this have a tendency to meet up with the boys in blue again in future, on the other side of the thin blue line. Mostly for assault, domestic battery, dui's, drugs, that sort of shit. Haven't checked to see whether or not they try to pass a fake 20 at more or less the rate of the gp.

Point being, there was only one dangerous savage that needed to be put down in this altercation, and it wasn't the man who died. Where's a cop when you need one, right? Rhetorical, we already know - he's on the other guys neck, and forming a perimeter for the kneck kneeler to kneel on knecks. He's telling emts to fuck off and mind their own business. He's blatantly lying in a press release about the incident. That sort of shit, important police work.
