Looks like we might have a case where Floyd died of something, but not directly of strangulation. At least, that's what I thought I just heard.

So, what's the status, if say, someone dies of a heart attack while being restrained? If the guy was in the back seat and dies, I don't think there is any charge against the police at all. But we hear the guy complaining and the guy has his knee on his neck.

With the police often getting the benefit of the doubt (in my opinion) this could still possibly end in an acquittal.


I think that comes down to forensics. Say he had a heart attack, that was cause of death instead of choking. Well then Murder 3 falls to Criminally Negligent Homicide. That is just a 2-3 year bit in a camp. Though I doubt a cop goes anywhere in gen pop.

How I read it if that is what happened. I have not been following it. Lets see if they call in Cyril Wecht.

Fascinating video of the protest
A white man using a hammer to bust out auto zone windows is confronted by protesters.
The reports are this is an undercover police officer

"Jake Peterson (others say Jacob Pederson) of the St. Paul PD is outed as the individual who smashed the windows at AutoZone."




The Police Department said that is not him...

If you are close you need to get in the VFW poker game.


Thanks for the invite! I’ll PM you for specifics one day in the next few weeks. I’ve got a pretty tight schedule until then.

It is closed for at least another week anyways, and I suspect it will take weeks to get back up to speed but please do, we need new blood.

Third degree, as I predicted

Third degree murder charge and second degree manslaughter. 10-25 years range in sentence.

Google Korboi Balla.

Black firefighter, just put his life savings into a bar in...... Minneapolis....... didn't insure it.... likely because it would be too expensive because of exactly which neighborhood it was in....



The bar does not exist anymore....... Hopefully Mr. Balla learns that police brutality must be paid for ...... by a Black firefighter.....

Since it has made the news I'll bet Oprah or some other attention seeker will rebuild it for him.....

Take a look at the bright side of it. Counterfeiting is way down in Minneapolis the last few days.
At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent.
