Cruzer 1,993 Posted April 10, 2021 12 hours ago, RaiderHaters Revenge said: Guess you aren’t really watching and reading the headlines. This is blatantly false If you would take time to watch even the video I posted you would know this the guy who trained him which was the prosecutors star witness said Chauvin was well within guidelines to use a taser which is more force and he chose to restrain him rather then tase him due to his drug state. He also stated in that situation as long as Floyd is continuing to kick and struggle he’s absolutely allowed to use the restraint method. They even talk about the mob surround and having to be on alert of potential issues related to that. This expert witness was so validating for the defense they even want to call him back to the stand as a defense witness. I wasn't even talking about the taser.......... thanks for playing.

No. I mean, you’re right. He wasn’t trying to kill the guy at all, there was no intent. However Chauvin is culpable by some measure. An a-hole cop doing his job recklessly but this time the perp took a bunch of drugs and died. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However this is nowhere near 1st or 2nd degree murder. It's some sort of involuntary manslaughter, aka reckless action that resulted in a death, maybe even less than that....i.e. following the rules with no intent for life or however the law states it, yada yada.

porkbutt 868 Posted April 10, 2021 yup im right there with you guys. no shot murder. lowest degree manslaughter 10 years out in 4- 5 sounds right. he has no record. problem is that not option. his lowest charge is intentional manslaughter? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

5-Points 2,795 Posted April 10, 2021 Negligent homicide at best. They can't prove that Chauvin did anything to contribute to Floyd's death. They can only show that he didn't do anything to prevent it from happening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You were talking about excessive force. The guy said Chauvin was within his training to use a taser and chose not too. Therefore the knee to the back isn’t excessive it’s a contradictory statement Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He pointed out that the point of our system is not to have justice served, at least in the connotative sense. It is to have the law served. Just because someone died does not mean there has to be someone to blame. I’m not saying Chauvin is or isn’t guilty of anything, I’m just saying that if you are rooting for “justice,” you are saying let’s just skip the trial and hang him, 3rd world dictatorship style.
