The Fall of Minneapolis

Politics overriding justice. Even if you're sceptical about this documentary it's important you watch this. There is very worrying evidence that this trial was manipulated at all levels.

The death of George Floyd was used as a cause celebre by politicians and groups in Minneapolis across the USA and around the world It's like many other things we deal with now where the orthodoxy of some people, an increasingly powerful group of people in fact much of the new ruling elite is based on the way they perceive something as the truth even if the facts say otherwise and woe betide anyone who disagrees.

Our son is a police officer. As such, I sorted through what I saw by the evidence presented, and as a police officer's mother. I learned of George's troubled existence, of his previous encounters with law enforcement, his general health and his use of illegal drugs, all well documented, and his autopsy report. I did not learn anything about Derek's previous police performance records, but did learn of the tactic he used that day to subdue George. I learned that the environment in Minneapolis associated with this event was geared more toward revenge than justice. I learned that it was impossible for Derek Chauvin to benefit from his right as an American citizen to a fair trial. All George had to do was get into the car...

I think as other people have already stated you just need to watch the evidence which is in front of you . Shocking to see the evidence withheld from the jury. Unfortunately as was pointed out on the documentary this was a trial by public opinion and no juror was going to say not guilty when there is an angry mob waiting outside to burn the city down (again). Hopefully this documentary is seen by enough people and a retrial tekes place sooner rather than later because currently it is disgraceful to see the 4 officers currently in prison. It's a wonder any police officers remain in service in the US following that miscarriage of justice..

I pray to God that this documentary gains traction and that the alternate story - that is, the Truth - is widely distributed and acted upon. The victimized Minneapolis officers, including those victimized who shared their stories, are the epitome of professional, dedicated public servants. I pray too that they find peace in time and maintain their pride and regain their faith. Lastly, I pray that our country soon overcomes the ingrained dishonesty that led to this miscarriage. Please, everyone, watch the Glenn Loury and John McWhorter YouTube conversation about this doc and spread the word far.

The body cam videos played in it entirety its all we need to see. With your own two eyes you witness the police calmly trying to detain Floyd. I only needed to see that and compare it with what the "news" media portrayed to see the rot of the justice system.

They burnt down America over a manufactured lie. Sent 4 police officers to prison for doing their jobs. Shameful abuse of the law, the courts, journalism and all for what?

Interesting revelations about the autopsy and police training manuals but again the police body cams pretty much sums up what happened. I feel horrible for the 4 incarcerated policemen and for all the police that lost their precinct. The people at the top never get have to answer for their corruption and ineptitude.
