"Former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin was found guilty on charges of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter."
I don't know much about the law, but how can he be guilty of ALL THREE counts? Isn't third degree murder different than second degree manslaughter and second degree unintentional murder? Yes. Guilty of all doesn't make legal sense at all.

We need to wait on the overnight mail in jury ballots. They're in the trunk of a Prius with a Bernie 2016 bumper sticker.

Be great if Chauvin gets off on Appeal due to the C H I M P Out comments made by the dumb c u n t Maxine Waters. They should find a jurer who heard her comments and claim it was jury tampering.

Meanwhile, Patrick Yoes, the National Fraternal Order of Police President, said the trial "was fair, and due process was served."
"Our system of justice has worked," Yoes said, adding, "We hope and expect that all of our fellow citizens will respect the rule of law and remain peaceful tonight and in the days to come."

Bad cops need to be recognized and dealt with - whatever their transgressions are. They make the job more difficult and dangerous. Chauvin got what he deserved. The appeal is perfunctory. what did he do that made him a bad cop? That's such a relative term. His actions were indicative of a perfect cop as far as his departmental policy, procedure and the law are concerned. Not so much in reality. They should have stuffed him in the back seat hauled his dead ass to jail. That's what a "good" cop would have done. Watch tell the original arrest video start to finish. In the end after fighting the fentanyl and meth high felon they did “stuff him” in the back of a patrol car. But he was still alive and crazy. He escaped out the other side still screaming. Isn’t escape a crime too? He was recaptured and grounded. Defense “expert witness” testified several times viewing several different views of the hold down if they showed the officer’s knee on Floyd’s neck. Her answer each time was “No, on the shoulder”. On the court record. Views can be deceiving. But not the one of Floyd escaping the patrol car. Yeah, after unconscious locked down in the back and off to the ER WOULD HAVE BEEN REASONABLE. Floyd’s the one who made the choice of not being alive in the back. Disgusting what tribalism has allowed to become. Now the fools are threatening to kill pale faces, like me. Multiple mags and a will to live. Be prepared. You are the hunted.

Guilty of all doesn't make legal sense at all. This happens all the time. (multiple charges for a single crime) What is confusing?

Being found guilty of killing one “victim” three different ways.

Showing Chauvin with his hands in his pockets showed me he didn't give a chit what happened. Now whether kneeling on the neck or between the shoulders , think about how hard it is to breath with weight on your back when face down. Now saying all that I think that Floyd got what was coming. But how many people would say that.

Now whether kneeling on the neck or between the shoulders , think about how hard it is to breath with weight on your back when face down. Now saying all that I think that Floyd got what was coming. But how many people would say that. Especially when worked into a frenzy fighting the police while drugged on fentanyl and methamphetimine. Plus he had already escaped custody once. All the crimes he committed not even counting attempting to pass counterfeit currency. Just the crimes after he was pulled over. Refusal to obey the lawful command of a police officer, possession of narcotics, resisting arrest, I believe I saw some kicks and elbows flying so assault, then escape from custody. After getting him on the ground a knee in the back would not have killed an undrugged individual of reasonable health. Won’t comment on the cardiopulmonary complications reported, there is argument on that, other than to say given his life style it would be unremarkable to find both cardiac and pulmonary complications. 99% chance a heavy cigarette smoker. And the biggest arrow pointing at his participation In his own death remains his abnormal physical state brought on by fentanyl and meth injection further diminished by his self induced hyper reaction to a pending term in prison. IIRC, and I believe I do, Floyd spent more time in prison than out for the last 20 years of his life. The next time would have probably been a biggy and he knew it. Floyd was not an angel on his way to lead Bible study as the biggest racist white hater in America, Free Suit Sharpton would have you believe. He was a drug addict that could not stay away from injectables, trouble or jail. Floyd was responsible for his own death. The officer was guilty of preventing a second escape. But that does not matter. We have lost blind justice. Preordained verdicts against violent negro criminals are politically decided by illegally elected officials. All in the name of discord, racial war, and elimination of resistance to same illegally placed politicians. Paid for by offshore funds and supported by self hating snow flakes. The time is coming soon for radical measures. We as self organized militia and hopefully assisted by border state national guard must secure our border with Mexico. Our falsely elected officials, bought with cartel blood money will fight tooth and nail to keep open the smugglers route to fortune in America, destroying lives along the way. All lives. Then unfortunately when the invaders produce weapons against us, which will happen, many will be left to float the Rio Grande. And many of us will be dependent upon the courage of fellow Patriots to defend and protect those with which they fought to protect and preserve FREEDOM. We must return the government of, by and for the people to what made us great. The domestic enemies of our nation must be removed and replaced. We must be made great again and we the people stand alone as the ones to accomplish the task. May God bless our freedoms and the nation in which they are housed. And bless the battles brought to us with victory. Amen.

After the verdict in the trial of former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin was announced, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi expressed her gratitude for "justice" — by thanking George Floyd for “sacrificing” his life.
"Thank you George Floyd for sacrificing your life for justice," Pelosi said Tuesday at a press conference on Capitol Hill with members of the Congressional Black Caucus.
"For being there to call out to your mom,” Pelosi continued. "How heartbreaking was that? Call out for your mom. 'I can't breathe.'”
"But because of you and because of thousands, millions of people around the world who came out for justice, your name will be synonymous with justice," she added.
Pelosi’s comments met harsh criticism, with observers noting that Floyd’s death wasn’t a “sacrifice” — Chauvin had just been convicted of his murder.
In a subsequent tweet, Pelosi clarified her remarks.
"George Floyd should be alive today," Pelosi wrote on Twitter. "His family’s calls for justice for his murder were heard around the world. He did not die in vain. We must make sure other families don't suffer the same racism, violence & pain, and we must enact the George Floyd #JusticeInPolicing Act."

The restraint technique Chauvin used was approved by his department and according to trial witnesses, applied properly.

I'm a reserve deputy. Not a full time pro, but I attended nearly 100 hours of classroom training plus at least that many more in reading assignments and/or online resources that I needed to become a sworn peace officer.
To the point: we were trained to NEVER apply perpendicular pressure along the neck and spine when holding a detainee on the ground. We were trained to ALWAYS apply the full shin lengthwise down the back, next to the spine. Further, we were taught to only apply enough weight or force to hold the detainee, and then only until restraints could be applied. To do otherwise would run the risk of injuring, or killing, the detainee.
I'm not surprised at all by this verdict. I am also not disappointed. I believe it is incumbent upon LEO to stand up and denounce unacceptable practices when they see it.
Notice I'm not stating that George Floyd was an upstanding citizen. Far from it. What's being lost in so much of the discussion about his death is the fact that, once detained, his safety is the responsibility of the LEO and agency that has detained him no matter how egregious his conduct or past record. Very well written, and I most definitely agree..

BS - did you even listen to the police chief who said, on the stand, that it was NOT part of their training??

Being found guilty of killing one “victim” three different ways. Careless prosecution forgot to throw in ‘Hate Crime ‘, too. Maybe that’ll be part of the Civil claims that may likely follow the Appeals. A Truly pathetic charade and travesty.

Sorry Pelosi, AoOco, Pressley, but had Floyd survived his overdose he would be in prison today on three strikes, not at home getting high with his druggie girlfriend "mama"
