Derek Chauvin's former shift supervisor testified that the force officers used against George Floyd went on too long and should have ended once Floyd had been handcuffed and stopped resisting.

It’s amazing how the court system operates in the US when it comes to a minority group. In other countries, that murder video should’ve sufficed. Amazing how the cops lawyer come up with his arguments. How can he sleep at night and look at his children?

So he admits the force used was appropriate during the arrest, just went on too long? Sounds like justified use of force. Bad judgment on timing isn’t murder.

remember chauvin had 27 counts of misdemeanor before this and he was never held accountable. he also worked with floyd at a club and had a personal conflict with him. the way he exceeded his use of force on him seems a case of revenge and malevolence. pure murder.

Cop was known for abuse and didn’t follow instructions.. danger to society

We already knew this, but America is so bias in favor of white, and blue, they decided to give him a trial and hope a juror will set him free, while they pretend they fair. Chauvin should be charged with a hate crime.

Thank you captian obvious.

Anyone else remember the whole Epstein island thing, how he had dirt on everyone, killed himself and the whole story was buried? KEEP EATING the race bait sheep 👏👏👏👏

The truth will not set Derek Chauvin free. Derek Chauvin enjoyed killing Floyd, in fact, he put extra pressure on Floyd's neck by placing his hand 🖐 in the pocket of leg he had on Floyd's neck.

Assal Rad AssalRad · 9h US military spending is $1,400,000 *per minute* & accounts for 40% of all global military spending. But all Americans having healthcare is out of the question. Makes sense.

I challenge the legacy media not to use the following words in a 24 hour period: Black,Asian, immigrant, Hispanic, white, Republican , Democrat, disproportionate, equity, equality, diversity, inclusion, transgender, LGBTQ, Trump and Biden. GO!

The supervisor also stated, that once constrained, George Floyd should have been rotated, onto one side or the other, to avoid restricting his ability to breathe.

could?

Fuck yea!

I agree. However, Chauvin didn't do anything he hadn't been trained to do, and was exceedingly patient with Floyd prior. Floyd was saying he couldn't breath before anyone held him down, and the medical report proved he didn't asphyxiate.

after Chauvin walks free.. people are gonna riot.

Judge allowed one question on excessive force- and it was answered in the affirmative - that excessive force should’ve stopped.

Anyone recall hearing that Chauvin and Floyd had worked together in the past? I thought I read that somewhere. Watching this trial makes me think this was racist Chauvin trying to 'teach Floyd a lesson' or something else personal.

Chauvin wanted George Floyd dead. The rest is history. Americans get to see how Blacks are treated and how they die...begging for their lives. White Police Officers are rarely held accountable-TIME for Change! Chauvin deserves LiFE without parole. Reopen other murder cases!

All this fuss over a fentanyl and meth overdose.

I still don’t believe he’ll be convicted.

😪

Who's to say he wouldn't have continued resisting once Chauvin let up? We saw how violent he was when placed into the police cruiser.

The defense asked a lot of leading questions that had nothing to do with the case. A lot of what If’s... surprisingly no one stopped it.

The word 'duh' comes to mind.

Doesn’t this completely blow the defense case out of the water This was one of their main points....

Not exactly

how come you guys haven't mentioned that he has overdosed on drugs before and his girlfriend felt like dying when taking similar drugs?

Which of course is what all of us have been saying 😒

Nuf said!!!!!!!!

he a chauvinist

Well, you don’t need to be a rocket scientist or genius to work that out.
