War Ravaged Portland

[Dos Equis]

At this point, the only fact that carries any weight is the Jury's verdict. You do realize that the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear his state murder conviction appeal in November 2023.

The federal case Violation of George Floyd's Civil Rights: In December 2021, Derek Chauvin pleaded guilty to the civil rights violations, and he admitted to using excessive force against George Floyd, depriving him of his constitutional rights. Derek Chauvin filed a motion in federal court in November 2023 to overturn this conviction. His appeals argument is that he would never have pleaded guilty if he had known of the alternative theory regarding George Floyd's death.

Even if this appeal overturned his federal conviction, it would not reduce the length of his incarceration since he is severing his state and federal sentences concurrently.

Prime I think you're a smart guy.  Incredibly uninformed and misinformed, but you're no dummy.  What I suspect is that you are using Chat GPT or some other AI to help you with your posts on the board.  Not a crime and it doesn't bother me, but I think that explains why you are completely dismissing damning evidence that undercuts your conclusion, and why you rarely cite your sources.  It feels like I'm communicating with a bot.  This isn't meant to be rude.  Just making an observation.

The judge was a former prosecutor who previously worked in the same office that prosecuted Chauvin.  The judge was likely doing what the jury did:  reach a decision that would not result in more rioting, murder, mayhem, death threats, etc.  It's results oriented decision making, where someone reaches the conclusion first then accepts or dismisses evidence to support that conclusion.

From what I see & read The trial was a cop out a fix , Blame whitey yet again.
The black lowlife thug killed himself & yet they blamed Derek.
No his behavior & attitude during the event that led to Thuglife's death didn't
Look good or help him.

They played the race card before trial, but not during the trial. 

I understand the initial outcry, because like I told Prime, when I first saw the video it looked like Floyd was suffocated to death, while handcuffed on the ground.  Even though Floyd was a terrible person, he didn't deserve to die that way. 

But when I looked at all of the evidence it became clear that Chauvin did NOT kill Floyd.  Total miscarriage of justice IMO.  And he's not getting out.  Even if Trump pardons or commutes his federal sentence, there is no way that Stolen Valor Tampon Tim or any other Democrat governor is going to pardon or commute the state prison sentence.
