A case of modern lynching

Would we still live in the so called good old times, then the police officer in the George Floyd death case sure would have been long lynched by the mob!

The widespread softness on crime and the pervasive mob rule that has been allowed to happen in the U.S. is a terrible and regrettable sign of our times!

Then we have a cognitively impaired 46th President of the United States who is cheering on the mob rule and publicly supporting such demagoguery like structural racism!

America que vadis!

46th U.S. President calls George Floyd's family after jury is sequestered

The cognitively impaired 46th President of the United States is fast becoming the worst president since President Franklin D. Roosevelt! The 46th President is actually emulating FDR!

A totally unhinged intervention by this president to call the family of a deceased person in an ongoing criminal trial against a police officer! This is so outrageous! A miscarriage/travesty of justice! As president to lead the mob rule is disgusting!

Is this not an impeachable offense by the 46th president?

"President Joe Biden called the family of George Floyd on Monday [4/21/2021] to let them know he was praying for them as the nation awaits a verdict in the trial of former police officer Derek Chauvin, who is accused of causing Floyd’s death. ..."

Ex-Lawyer Would Have Argued ‘Very Differently’ in Derek Chauvin Trial

Recommendable! More on the miscarriage of justice!

"... And so when he was done with his argument, which lasted for like two and a half, two and three-quarters hours, the prosecution lawyers approached the judge and they said, “We want the court to re-read the instruction that says that the arguments of the lawyers are not evidence. And if you find that a lawyer has misstated either the facts or the law, you should disregard it.” And the judge did that. …

The way it goes in closing in a criminal case, it’s prosecution, defense, prosecution, right? So before the prosecutor got up for his rebuttal argument, the judge actually re-read that instruction to the jury, basically telling them that the defense lawyer was making stuff up.He had two to three times a fatal dose of fentanyl in his system, George Floyd did. The prosecution’s argument was 11 nanograms per milliliter. That would kill a normal person, but it maybe wouldn’t kill George Floyd because he was an addict so his tolerance is higher. ...

But I know there’s a study out there that says that even among opioid addicts, 9 nanograms was the median overdose that caused fatality, George Floyd was at 11. So I would have found an expert that would say he died of a drug overdose, not anything that the officers did. ..."

What impact will this George Floyd verdict have on law enforcement?

It is quite possible that the jurors were intimidated by all the intense pressure (e.g. No Justice No Peace)! The jurors did not stand up and display courage! They obviously passed the buck! What a miscarriage of justice! This so called murder case is a travesty of justice as if police officers were our enemies!

However, any law enforcement officer will now probably think twice before risking anything! A very sad state of affairs! Add to this the often repeated ludicrous public demands like to defund the police!
Who still wants to be or become a police officer in the United States?

Criminals and irresponsible people will have a field day knowing law enforcement will be easy on them going forward! Not to mention that the Floyd family received $27 million in a settlement from the city before the verdict!

The best hope is that that this verdict will not survive on appeal!

Money talks!
