This is the now ex-police officer accused of killing George Floyd: Derek Chauvin trial begins as family demands justice. The case is being broadcast live so expect wall to wall media coverage over the coming days and weeks. It will be, to put it mildly, interesting to see how it pans out.

I suspect there will be demonstrations whatever the outcome and we will see them in the UK as well.

Can anyone tell me which organisation arrested him? Just looked into it - it was the Filmmakers Association of Namibia. Yeah, I was surprised too.

Time for Mr Chauvin to face the justice he fucking deserves. This guy is an utter menace.

This is nothing more than a show trial to appease the baying mob. I really do hope they have the bollocks to find him not guilty, but we all know that this is not going to be a fair trial by any metric.

So do you think he is innocent, or do you just want to see the baying mob get a result that they don't want?

Such larks. My money was on the police (the law enforcement group, not the new wave one). So, what was the point of your question? I was wondering if the police had been replaced by someone more suitable, seeing as they had been deemed surplus to requirements by some. Perhaps no one else stepped up to the plate then.

Why is ng used and not mg in the report? Is that standard procedure? From what I can see, ng is a fraction of mg. I prob have ng traces of drugs in my system from that session I had pre-1st lockdown...

Perhaps no one else stepped up to the plate then. Believe it or not, no-one had stepped up to replace the police in the four days between George Floyd's death and Chauvin's arrest. Thankfully the "some" left it to the only organisation that has the powers to arrest people.

If you like indulging in cess pits, there’s plenty of online “evidence” suggesting this guy wasn’t the guy that killed floyd and videos of the ambulance slinging him straight in the back without even checking his pulse. As you do.
I’m not saying the msm or the internet whack jobs are right, but what we’re told to believe is probably not the exact truth.

There is a bodycam from one of the officers on Youtube that shows footage from initial officer attendance to the death of Mr Floyd. For those following the case it’s a pretty traumatic watch but covers the whole incident.

We’re never told the exact truth and that again comes from the media. Yet they’re allowed to let critical footage (evidence) be shared and plagiarised on their platforms. We live in a world manipulated to control us.
