No way Derek Chauvin should be in prison. Floyd just finished resisting arrest, fighting off police who attempted to put him in a squad car. He had several times the lethal limit of fentanyl in his system along with other illegal drugs. Several of his main heart arteries were significant clogged, and he had tumor growing in his chest. There was no damage to Floyd hyoid bone. Persons on fentanyl are known to experience problems breathing. First aid for someone having breathing problems is lay the person face down on the ground. Certainly the standard of reasonable doubt was met regarding what caused his death.
Chauvin violated no law whatsoever. He followed the prescribed training of his department which pictured the knee on the back procedure which Chauvin and other city cops practiced in training.
The trial was a legal abomination. No way the defendant’s motion for change of venue should not have been granted. One of the jurors was found to be a racial activist. Early in the arrest cycle, the cops called for an ambulance, and the call was muffed by the ambulance service which arrived belatedly.
Derek Chauvin is a political prisoner who should be liberated and compensated generously for his imprisonment and injury while in prison, all steming from a veritable kangaroo court trial.
Trump should but I predict will refrain from pardoning him of federal charges, however, there is little hope of exoneration for State charges given the communist governance headed by the idiot Waltz.
