Gag order lifted for 4 former Minneapolis officers in George Floyd case.

Cahill also ruled Tuesday that he would not hold the lead prosecutor in the case, Attorney General Keith Ellison, in contempt of court as two defense attorneys requested, saying a statement Ellison made when he announced that additional attorneys would be assisting the prosecution was innocuous and did not violate the gag order.

Police body camera videos were filed with the court this month by Lane’s attorney, Earl Gray, as part of a request to have Lane’s case dismissed. Gray said he wanted the videos to be made public — prompting Cahill to issue an order barring attorneys and parties from discussing the case.

Minnesota Lawmakers Ban Police Chokeholds, 'Warrior-Style Training'Minnesota lawmakers have voted to pass a bill banning police use of chokeholds. The bill also prohibits 'warrior-style training' and explicitly states officers have a 'duty to intercede and report' if they see a colleague break use-of-force rules. More bans!! More rules!!!! Police are notoriously good at following !!!!!! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!! How is it that violent criminals are glorified and cops are demonized? Reminds me of the crowds choosing Barabbas over Jesus when Pilate gave them a choice. Oh good! Cops love following the law.
