The Social Injustice System By Charles Taylor (Florida)

The US Justice Department were taking no chances, and if justice had been delivered in the Chauvin trial instead of the circus we saw, they were going to arrest him on other charges, civil rights violations, whatever they are. Well, they might as well move to summary execution for all our cesspool system is worth. I am sorry to have served for this country. It deserves nuclear hell fire.

Blast, just lost the URL for this, but I will post it when I find it. See, it pays not to get too angry. You just can’t BREATHE! Yes, lacking so much air that you can still say the sentence. Try saying it while choking on a strawberry!

 

“The Justice Department (DOJ) planned to arrest Derek Chauvin inside the courthouse and charge him with civil rights violations in the case of a mistrial or if he had been found not guilty of George Floyd's murder, according to a report in the Minneapolis Star Tribune on Wednesday.

The Star Tribune reported that federal prosecutors had built a police brutality case against Chauvin, as well as the other three officers who were charged in Floyd’s death. However, the DOJ didn’t pursue a grand jury indictment to avoid influencing the murder trial.

 

In the case of a mistrial or an acquittal, Chauvin would have been charged with a criminal complaint by the Minnesota U.S. Attorney's Office, enabling authorities to arrest him in the courthouse, and later seek a grand jury indictment.

The basis of the charges would stem from Floyd’s arrest and subsequent death, as well as the 2017 arrest of a 14-year-old boy, that officials believed showed a pattern of behavior. In the 2017 arrest, Chauvin reportedly hit the teenager, who was Black, with a flashlight before placing him in a prone position for 17 minutes. 

The DOJ didn’t enact the plan because the jury found Chauvin guilty of second-degree murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter in Floyd's death. However, the Star Tribune reported that federal prosecutors would be moving forward with the case once they obtain a grand jury indictment.

Three other Minneapolis police officers — Alexander Kueng, Thomas Lane and Tou Thao —  will stand trial in August on charges of aiding and abetting second-degree murder in Floyd’s death.

Chauvin is scheduled to be sentenced in June, where he will face up to 40 years in prison for his most serious conviction of second-degree murder.”
