Derek Chauvin was found guilty on all counts of murder and manslaughter on Tuesday afternoon in the death of George Floyd last year.
The former Minneapolis police officer was found guilty of second-degree unintentional murder, third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter. …
When the verdict was announced by the Judge Peter A. Cahill, Chauvin looked on blankly from his chair. Each murder charge for a person with no criminal history carries a presumptive prison sentence of 12.5 years, according to Minnesota sentencing guidelines. The manslaughter charge for someone without a criminal record carries a presumptive prison sentence of four years. …
Less than an hour after jurors found Chauvin guilty on all charges, prosecutors thanked the jury for making what they called the “right and decent” choice to convict the former Minneapolis police officer in the murder of Floyd. …
“I want to thank the jury for their service, for doing what was right and decent and correct and speaking truth and finding the right verdict in this case,” Schleicher said. [Washington Post]

Barring a miracle in the appeals process, Chauvin will spend decades if not the rest of his life in prison. It’s unfair and unjust, the greatest travesty of the criminal courts since O.J. Simpson went free two and a half decades ago.
Mob rule has taken over in America, which means that law and order is dead, and the Constitutional right to due process has been shredded beyond recognition. It’s not so much that the left-wing mob knows that it can tamper with judges and juries with impunity. Rather, the mob is incited to tamper with juries and judges by the press arm of the Global American Empire, with the full weight and backing of the ruling class governing establishment of the Global American Empire.
If there is any bright spot to what happened today, it is this: Americans should be completely purged of the illusion that a fair and just system still exists that will protect them from the predations of the Globalist American Empire. There is no fair system of “law and order” in America. There is only the arbitrary application of power for political purposes.
Derek Chauvin was a humble police officer trying to protect his community from the drug addicts and dangerous predators who grow more common by the day. He responded to a call from a convenience store over a counterfeit bill, and ended up trying to restrain George Floyd, a man both high on drugs and much larger than him. Chauvin used his police training to restrain Floyd while a hostile crowd surrounded him.
No proof was ever offered that Chauvin’s knee killed George Floyd, because no such proof could ever be offered. The very notion was ridiculous. Floyd died from a lifetime of health-destroying decisions coupled with the lethal amount of drugs in his system. If Floyd hadn’t died on camera, nothing would have happened. Instead, for political expediency, Chauvin was made into a human sacrifice. He was disowned by the state he served and the public he protected.
Chauvin was never going to receive a fair trial.
