The Fall of Minneapoli

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...

This documentary shows a lot of information that gives the viewer a fuller understanding of what actually happened. Whether or not you come to the conclusion that Chauvin and the other three jailed cops should be exonerated, you will come to the conclusion that their trial verdicts were at least partly influenced by huge public pressure and withholding of critically important evidence.

It was truly disturbing to see police administration straight up lie about training cops to use the maximal restraint technique. They trained cops to use that, then let Chauvin and the others take the fall for it.

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.

How can this happen in a country like the U. S.? Because we the people have allowed it. By electing people to office based on personal feelings or some misguided idelogy rather than facts, morals and ethics. Even after we know they're corrupt we elect them anyways. One day you could be Derek Chauvin. Nobody expects to be caught in circumstances like this but make no mistake, it could just as easily be you or a loved one. This doc. Shows just how corrupt and how complicit people will be in covering it up just to protect themselves. Our freedom is based on and centered around three simple words, "We The People." People should not fear their government, the government should fear it's people, it time for a course correction.

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.
