Bye!
The justice system are Scapegoat these innocent officers for doing there job they were trained to do. Since the officers are getting charged then it’s time to start charging the crowd for obstructing justice. These officers are innocent but they are getting punished so the world won’t burn down. I hope after BLM are found guilty for Fraud they release these officers and drop all charges since they are victims of BLM who are committing fraud for peoples money.
This 4 cops I hope they have to pay for everything. I like to see take everything they own that's including thier 401 k retirement as well.
Joke….." Black man, White man, and a Chinese man walks into a bar……lol
I’m glad they were convinced by WHY is it so hard for black people to sit on a jury??
These cops have been made scapegoats there in America. It's pathetic.
Omg I hate when people talk with masks on and breath weird!!! Ugh 😂😆😂😆😂😆 everyone get back so she can take it off to breathe😹😹😹😹😹 who's idea was this? 🤣😅😂😆🤔🤔🤔😆😆😆😆
Good morning to everyone!
Thank you very much for your services.
"F" Mob! Justice
All of these monsters need to go to prison,they are incompetent and stupid and over push there police power.
Lady what they found guilty for is conspiracy to the facts, have you ever heard of it before? they are all guilty, no sugar coating.
This entire thing has been a politically-motivated witch hunt from beginning to end. Despicable.
Bottom line, if you're a cop in America, the Left and the court system has just put a huge bullseye on your back.
Quit now, while you still can.
Going to prison, hope they rot
More truth / better world
Im a black man from Chicago that one police jus did his job he was like four days on the job us as ppl got this one wrong
This lady mouth breathing through this mask is obnoxious.
Throw all of these racist BUMS in jail!
2 things everyone is fed up of violence towards civilians besides the evidence was clear as day they left him to die where is your humanity?
If I ask you to put your hand in fire would u do it ?This is not about being rookie this about your humanity and sense of decency
They contributed directly by restraining him could impede circulation they also heard GF moaning 23 times for relief and had Clearview of GF in distress didnt do any thing
All that jazz about them volunteering caring about people is crap here was a golden opportunity to put your caring nature in action to save GF but didnt do a thing just baloney don't pee on my leg and tell me its raining
Then they will sentence them to two weeks in Miami. This state is a disgrace.
Did anyone expect a different outcome? Their official capacity was policing. Not being medics or Drs. How many times do you suppose they ever hear "I can't breath", "I'm having a heart attack", this hurts or that hurts, I need an ambulance? Eventually after you cry wolf so many times the wolf dog won't know the difference when the wolf is really there. We need to change alot of behaviors on both sides to change these story endings. BOTH SIDES, not just the police.
Not in custody
THUGS THUGS THUGS need to be lock up
Don't let them fool you. There are snakes in the Untied States.
All three should face the death penalty; it is the only course of retribution. Their arguments are baseless; all three participated in George Floyd's death.
Between 1997 and 2005, Floyd served eight jail terms on various charges, including drug possession, theft, and trespass. In 2007, Floyd faced charges for aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon; according to investigators, he had entered an apartment by impersonating a water department worker and barging in with five other men, then held a pistol to a woman's stomach and searched for items to steal. I would paste more but that would take to long. Great person though RIP
This is what police do yet many years they got away with it until cameras came out God only knows how many people police have killed and how many people have served innocent time in prison it's what police do
Lane did all these things they convinced him on. Trust me I have a feeling lane will beg a mistrial or overturned!
Come out with the sentencing.
The day these officers were found guilty was the day the Russian "special operation" began. Russia probably knew they cannot let people run the world like this.
Seriously!?! This verdict was swept under the rug. This should have made the news. I would've been a lot less stressed, if I had known those 3 murderers had been convicted! With Trump walking around free and no charges or warrants for his arrest!?! It's so depressing. I would've been much more satisfied if their trial got the same coverage as Chauvin.
"Consequences and repercussions!"
